He realizes that the states wanted to show a calm confident power that they are ready to talk, but only on their own conditions. This is what the representatives of the US administration have already repeated: yes, we are ready to talk, yes, the conversation will start sooner or later, but under our conditions. And they also speak China, but with China it is a fundamental difference, with China ready to talk, ready to negotiate on mutual consideration of views and conditions.

And with Russia it should be very clear: we agree on our conditions, it should be a joint strategy of Ukraine and the West, ”the former minister said. Klimkin added that the path of Ukraine in the next 20 years is "it is to become part of the event, and to have both influence and the ability to influence the development of internal rules and principles of the event. " He added that this is the best strategy, regardless of specific formats.

“And we are well aware that in the restart, the question is, and where Russia will be at all, because in the first league it will not be in the future. But this makes the Russian regime even more dangerous at the stage of decline, ”the diplomat said.
