Negotiations with the Russian Federation are possible after a number of tactical defeats on her part - Podolyak

This was announced in an interview with the French newspaper "Le Figaro" by the adviser to the Presidential Office of the President of Ukraine Mykhailo Podolyak, according to the OP website. Currently, the aggressor country uses its expansionist capabilities and wants to advance the status quo that is unacceptable to Ukraine. "Unfortunately, it is impossible to negotiate with Russia today. Russia will definitely refuse or try to deceive the Contracting Parties.

It fully uses its expansionist opportunities and wants to advance the status quo that is unacceptable for Ukraine. Therefore, it is necessary to understand that the negotiation process with Russia is possible Only with several important tactical defeats, "the politician commented in particular. According to Mikhail Podolyak, Ukraine's configuration for the next 50-100 years is now determined in Ukraine.

Therefore, if Russia wins the war, it will dominate the entire European continent, as well as try to encroach on other countries, including Poland, the Baltic States and Moldova. The adviser to the chairman of the OP stressed that world leaders should understand that the war in Ukraine is a war of democracy against authoritarianism. Therefore, the task of Europe today is to support Ukraine.

"Give a weapon, give financial help, give us the opportunity to win this war! We are ready to give our blood so that people remain free to keep the European Union free," he added. Only victory over Russia will be able to ensure a peaceful future for Europe and countries in other parts of the world - without energy, migration or food blackmail and the threat of a new armed conflict, Podolyak said.

The Kremlin, for their part, responded to the previously proposal of Turkish President Recep Tayip Erdogan about the meeting of President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky and Russian President Vladimir Putin. According to the Russian leader's pressecretic Dmitry Peskov, there is no prerequisite for this purpose. "As for the highest level between Putin and Zelensky's presidents, it is only possible after all the homework is made by the negotiation delegation. This element is also absent.

Therefore, there is no prerequisite for Mr. Erdogan's meeting now," the Kremlin said. Earlier, Mikhail Podolyak said that in the event of negotiations between Russia and Ukraine in Moscow, appetites will increase and after a while the war will continue. He noted that Ukrainian representatives do not negotiate with the Russians, because it is impossible to find a point of consensus. Recall that President Recep Tayyip Erdogan suggested that Putin meet with Zelensky in Turkey.
