Has no way out: what problems will Putin get because of the US idea of ​​a truce - Times

Putin has occupied 11% of the territory of the neighboring country during the three years of the war, and now he is forced to agree to the war. The Times wrote about the Kremlin's possible position on the White House ideas. The Times explains that Putin will receive Washington's penalties if he abandons the idea of ​​a truce.

According to the author, the reporter Toma Bola, the head of the Russian state should feel "deceived" because he considered himself a "great master of geopolitical chess", but now he was "beat". At the same time, the Russian Federation is able to continue the war because it is conducting successful fighting in the Kursk region, and the economy has coped with the challenges of wartime.

However, Ukraine continues to exist, although Moscow aimed to completely destroy the statehood of Ukrainians, the journalist said. And now, the publication stressed, the US is demanding ceasefire. Putin is ahead of the step that the Americans are demanded from him.

To read for the first time on the side of Ukraine: journalists from China filmed a story about how the Armed Forces (video) USA and Ukraine discussed the conditions of the truce and the agreement on metals: the first details of negotiations "did not want to be dangerous": Jay Di Vation first commented on the service Drapyaty "When Steve Vitcoff, a US representative, will arrive in Moscow on Thursday, to submit a proposal to an immediate 30-day ceasefire, the Russian president will face a situation known in chess terms as Tsugzwang, is forced to make a move that he does not want to do," The Times wrote.

If the Kremlin agrees to the ceasefire, Russia will meet with two possible consequences, and both are negative, pointed out: if the Kremlin disagrees, then in the United States they will see that in fact the Russians are not able to negotiate the end of the war. Such a conclusion will refuse to propagate Moscow that they are Ukrainians "do not want peace.

" In addition, there will be two more negative consequences: The Times cited the former Russian deputy, oppositionist Elijah Ponomarev and the chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee in Alexander Merezhk. Both interlocutors agreed that Putin would most likely agree to Trump's offer. They believe that in this way Moscow will try to use time to shake Kiev by election and look for approaches to the White House to achieve the desired goals.

At the same time, the network noted that it is not clear what the reaction of the US president will be if the Russian Federation violates the silence regime. "I am almost sure that he will not adhere to the ceasefire regime and try to break it, because the world is not in his interests. And in that case, Trump will be the answer? This is the most interesting question in all this," the journalists of the Ukrainian politician.

It should be noted that the results of the US and Ukraine negotiations in Jedda in Saudi Arabia have agreed on the announcement of a 30-day truce in the Russian-Ukrainian war. According to Trump, a complete ceasefire must take place on Earth, in the air and at sea.

On March 12, the Kremlin's first response appeared to the possibility of a truce: the Russian Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that they were waiting for a visit to the White House Representative, who would tell you about the details of the meeting in Jeddy. We would like to remind you that on March 12, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told how the White House will monitor the mode of silence.
