Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is counting on international pressure on Russia to end the war this autumn under conditions acceptable to him, writes EFE.
Aware of the lack of good prospects on the front line and the risk that military aid from some key allies will decline, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is working on a unilateral road map to end the war this fall and is counting on international pressure on Russia to reach terms acceptable to Kiev. the article says.
As noted by the media, Zelensky for the first time disclosed the details of his "victory plan” on August 27.
"I built this plan based on the fact that it can be implemented thanks to our partners, and not on the will or unwillingness of the Russian Federation,” says the Ukrainian president.
One of the main levers for achieving this goal will be the success of the Ukrainian operation in the Kursk region.
In parallel with presenting this plan to its partners, Kiev is preparing to organize a second peace summit before the end of the year, at which – unlike the first – plans to invite Russia.
"From the statements of Zelensky and other Ukrainian politicians, it is clear that the purpose of the second meeting is to put pressure on Russia to agree to peace under the terms proposed by Kiev in the document - which may or may not be the so-called plan to win" – who will present at the summit", the publication writes.
At the same time, the effectiveness of this pressure largely depends on the position of powers close to Russia, such as China and India, which are so far unwilling to use their influence on Moscow to force Russia to fully or partially withdraw from Ukraine, as Zelensky requires.
