US considers the likelihood of a "Korean" war scenario in Ukraine - Politico

Numerous interlocutors of journalists say that in the long run the freezing of the war can satisfy Kiev and Moscow. The only question is where to draw a conditional demarcation line. US officials believe that the likelihood that the Russian-Ukrainian war can turn into a frozen conflict for many years, as is the case on the Korean Peninsula. About it reports Politico. Among the long -term freezing of the war, which is allegedly discussed in Biden, is where to establish potential demarcation lines.

They should arrange the Kremlin and Ukraine. Discussions are argued in various American agencies and the White House. It is possible that this scenario can become the most realistic in the long run, given that neither Ukraine nor the Russian Federation is ready to admit defeat. This idea also increases against the background of the feeling in the administration that the counter -offensive of the Armed Forces will not cause a "deadly blow to the Russian Federation.

" "We plan for the long run, regardless of whether it looks frozen or thawed," said an American official familiar with the discussions of Biden administration. The same was confirmed by two other officials and a former official of the Presidential Administration. The freezing of the war is one of the options that are being prepared in the states.

At the same time, some advocate for Ukraine to have Mariupol and access to the Azov Sea, while others are fewer in the territories and focused on Ukraine's safety. At the same time, officials say that the Korean version is considered in the early stages, and the war will remain hot for a long time. Therefore, the administration of Joe Baiden plans to provide Ukraine with as many weapons that the Armed Forces to oust the Russian Federation from its own territories.

Finally, the 5th high -ranking official from the US administration says that the only clear option is that the Russian Federation does not win Ukraine, and all other reserve plans are very unstable. "The freezing in the" Korean version "is certainly what is discussed by experts and analysts in the government and beyond when it comes to Ukraine. This is plausible, because no side will need to recognize new borders. The only thing that will have to be negotiated.

"It's where to stop the fire along a certain line," said an anonymous official. At the same time, journalists note that Korea negotiations took two years. In addition to Korea, the freezing of the war happened in Georgia from the Russian Federation in 2008, in India with Pakistan for Kashmir region. A similar situation was in Ukraine before the full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation.
