Talks about negotiations have become a "big" taboo: NYT about the successful promotion of the Armed Forces

Following a scandalous statement to NATO that Ukraine may become a member of NATO, if it abandons part of the territories, public negotiations stopped. At the moment when the Ukrainian army began to receive achievements in the counter -offensive, in the West actually stopped publicly discussing the possibility of negotiations between the Russian Federation and Ukraine. About it reports The New York Times.

Recently, the head of the NATO Secretary General Stian Jensen stated that Ukraine could join NATO if it would have abandoned part of its territory. For these words, he had to apologize, and NATO Stoltenberg's Secretary General himself explained that he was meant. The harmfulness of such systems and condemnation by Ukrainians seems to have led to the discussion about negotiations ceased to be public.

It is noted that Western allies and Ukrainians themselves have high hopes on a counter -offensive, which should change the balance on the battlefield. At the same time, some Western analysts continue to argue that despite the lack of readiness of Ukraine and Russia for negotiations, any war will end with negotiations. The same phrase was said by US President Joe Biden. The question is the conditions on the battlefield, how to make a place for discussion.

Senior political scientist Rand Samuel Charan believes that any democratic state should have a serious debate on how to achieve it. However, it has repeatedly criticized for the assumption that the interests of Kiev and Washington did not always coincide. The United States hoped that the counter -offensive would endanger the Russian Federation in the Crimea, and Ukraine would intensify, but this did not happen.

"So the political atmosphere has aggravated, but there is a political taboo about meaningless talk about the finale," Charan said. It is also noted that there are no open negotiations on plan B because they are aggravating for politicians. Previously, the negotiations were on the taboo, and now they are under "big taboo", says the political scientist. We will remind, on September 1 in the Pentagon stated that the Kremlin is negotiating with the DPRK on the supply of weapons.
