The main problem: Putin believes that Ukraine will survive, but it needs to be convinced in the opposite

According to the White House representative, if there are changes in Putin's head, Russia may change its position. Russian President Vladimir Putin believes that Ukraine and its allies can survive. This is the fundamental problem of war. This was stated by US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken during a Asphen Security Forum. According to him, it is necessary to persuade the head of the Kremlin that Ukraine will actually go anywhere and it will always have a weapon that it can defend itself.

Blinken stated that partner countries need to continue to support Ukraine. First of all, G7 countries. In addition, NATO members in Vilnius expressed their willingness to give Ukraine weapons in the long run, and committed to help the country to develop defense capability. In this way, it will be possible to reflect the desire to start a new aggression in the Russian Federation. "It sends a very powerful message to Vladimir Putin that we will not go anywhere.

Ukraine will not go anywhere and have means to protect," Blinken said. According to him, if there are changes in Putin's head, Russia may change its position. "We do not see it now," Blinken added. Recall that US Presidential Advisor Jake Sullivan said that Zelensky and Biden were discussing the supply of ATACMS missiles to Ukraine. In addition, the states are consulting with Ukraine about when the main forces should be involved in the Armed Forces.
