The exchange of "everyone" of all: Ukraine wants to prepare the ground for negotiations with the Russian Federation - the media

According to journalists, an unexpected offensive in the Kursk region of Russia disrupted the plans of Moscow to dictate a peace agreement on its terms, and also strengthened Ukraine's position in any future negotiations. The Kursk operation broke the negotiation strategy of Russia, as stated by Ukrainian political analyst Vladimir Fesenko. Earlier, Russia expected Ukraine to impose its terms of peace because it lasted the initiative.

The material states that the influence that Kiev is now getting critical in the future, especially if Donald Trump is again elected President of the United States and he will push his contradictory peace talks between Ukraine and Russia. The effect of the Kursk operation may increase Ukraine's chances of more support for states, if the opponent of Trump, the current Vice president of Kamal Harris, is chosen.

Fesenko stated that if Trump is selected, he could appoint a mediator and try to prepare the ground for possible negotiations in November-December. "In the case of Kamal Harris election, he should set a clear goal of turning a terrible war on a Ukrainian victory today," said Anders Aslund, Professor of Georgetown University. According to him, the unexpected offensive of Ukraine in the Kursk region of Russia can be the beginning of more promising developments.

Analysts noted that Kremlin head Vladimir Putin is unlikely to give up the occupied territories of Ukraine. However, there is a ceasefire scenario without Ukraine recognition of any Russian annexation de jure. But even this option, considered as a pause, is strongly rejected by Kiev because of fears that it will give Putin time to get better for a new stage of the war.

Renault Domenico, Head of Democrats Abroad in Ukraine, stated that the support of Harris Camals is likely to allow Kiev to eventually negotiate with Russia from the position of force. "If Ukraine continues to fight and Trump loses, Russia will not have a different choice in Russia than to view its actions and look for some way out," he said. "It all depends on what happens in the elections.

" At the same time, Russian observer Sergey Parkhomenko believes that there are no prospects and no "potential" for peace talks between Ukraine, Russia and the West. "Putin's regime does not need peace. He wants to achieve concessions, it is true. He will also want to present it as a victory. And then the war will continue as if nothing happened," he said. We will remind, in the Russian Federation they told when they will agree to peace talks with Ukraine.
