Russia wants to "bargaining operational pause": Podolyak about "peaceful proposals of the Russian Federation" in the spring of 2022

"Once again, I propose to use logic (irony) and re-evaluate known (unchanged) facts," he said. According to Podolyak, the Russian Federation "largely goes to another country and kills the citizens of this country. " The main purpose of the Russians is to capture the territory, reformat the state, direct and indirect occupation.

In addition, the adviser to the chairman of the Presidential Office stressed that in the first and next stages of negotiations (Belarus/Turkey), Russia ultimately demanded to give it already occupied territories and legally refuse them. "To abandon your subjectivity (unobtrusive alliances, abandonment of cultural and information identity), abandonment of their own army. These conditions were unchanged. Where can you read the proposal of" peace ", not unconditional surrender?" .

Podolyak also noted that after the tactical "defeat in the northern regions of Ukraine and escape from the Kyiv region," the mass facts of "genocide practices" of the Russian Federation and the true intentions of the aggressor country in Ukraine were revealed. And this, he said, finally made it impossible to make any contact with Russia. "The conclusion is simple. There was no real opportunity to negotiate. The conditions of surrender of the Russian Federation did not change.

Ukraine categorically never accepted these conditions," he said. According to Podolyak, now Russia wants to destroy Ukraine again, but is looking for an opportunity to "overshadow the operational pause" to finish militarization, to expand mobilization and to scale fighting in the next stage.

"Question: Why periodically return to a non -existent topic and try to issue known capitulative requirements of the Russian Federation for something new, which could not accurately lead to" peace "? Why should it not be necessary to not understand what a large -scale invasion of the Russian Federation should end only The Russian Federation, not to lead to "peace," he writes.
