The Moscow correspondent Ivoneneneth noted that Volodymyr Zelenskyy seems to blink the first, and when the Kremlin's head will study the details of his interview, it would allegedly be satisfied. "After a multi -year confrontation over how the war is over, its opposite room seems to blinker the first, giving the most clear hint that Ukraine may be ready to give way (though not legally) within a peace agreement," he wrote Yuvole Bennet.
Vladimir Putin can consider it as a psychological victory, and Moscow will try to get the maximum benefit. But international correspondent Diana Magna is convinced that Volodymyr Zelenskyy is making a great bet on the newly elected US President Donald Trump. Kiev may hope that if Washington shows a strong hand in support, then all Europe will take this example.
"For Zelensky NATO membership - and reliable security guarantees provided by Article 5, even if at this stage it is just a desire - is an integral part of how he sees the future of his country . . . In order for restraint, Putin must believe that when President Trump says that he or she is decisive, he or she must hope that Trump is not tired of this process when he understands how heavy he is, "Diana Magna's interview has analyzed.
The editor of the department of international relations Dominic Waghorn, for his part, believes that Volodymyr Zelenskyy can hint at negotiations with Russia, which is already a significant shift. A possible change of position, according to the journalist, could happen through the victory of Donald Trump in the election, which repeatedly spoke that he intended to complete the war through negotiations. At the same time, guarantees are needed that Vladimir Putin will not return.
"This time, these guarantees should be cast iron, unlike the promises given to the Ukrainians in the past, which ended with betrayal and gave Putin the opportunity to start their murderous invasion and war . . . This is an exciting exchange of thoughts (interview Zelensky - ed. ) , which will study politicians both in the Kremlin and in the West, as both sides are preparing for what can happen, "Dominic Waghorn said.
Debora Gaine's Security and Defense Editor stated that the concessions of both parties were required to conclude a peace agreement. At the same time, speaking of NATO membership, the consent of all 32 Member States is needed, but some of them may not agree to it even after the fighting is over, given the chance of restoring conflict. It would allegedly involved the Alliance into a direct war with the Kremlin.
"However, experts reflect on a possible version of a peace agreement, for which NATO will offer membership by the Government of Ukraine, and Russia holds already captured lands, but without any international legitimacy or recognition.
Such a step will entail concessions on both sides-Kiev will be forced to Temporarily reconcile with the loss of the territory, and Moscow will not be able to achieve the main purpose of the war - to prevent most of Ukraine from entering the Western Alliance, "Debora Gayins writes. Even if Volodymyr Zelenskyy goes to this step, the journalist says, Vladimir Putin will feel that he will no longer be able to invade Ukrainian territory with the help of military force.
