Mykhailo Podolyak: Ukraine’s position in negotiations with Russia will depend on success on the frontline
Odessa Journal ^ | 4/11/2022 | Odessa Journal

In negotiations with the Russian Federation, Ukraine will do its utmost to end the war taking into account its national interests and to obtain reliable international guarantees to prevent such wars in the future. This was stated by Adviser to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Mykhailo Podolyak in an interview for the host of the TV channel “Ukraine 24” Tygran Martyrosyan.

The Adviser to the Head of the President’s Office noted that Ukraine’s goal is not a bilateral peace agreement with Russia, which will not fulfill it, but multilateral security guarantees that will prevent a repeat of such a war against our state.

“We want to have a specific formula that Ukraine is sitting at the negotiating table, the aggressor country – the Russian Federation is sitting at the negotiating table, and next to Ukraine are the countries that will guarantee Russia’s commitment not to attack,” he explained.

He noted that the Ukrainian army is ready to fight the occupiers.

“Either we or they have to gain a significant advantage on the battlefield. Only after that our positions in the negotiating group will be significantly strengthened and, of course, we will get what Ukraine needs. The negotiating team will definitely not work contrary to what is happening on the battlefield and certainly not against the way President Zelenskyy sees the whole situation, and he sees it much more clearly,” said the Adviser to the Head of the Office of the President.

In view of this, as Mykhailo Podolyak noted, it is worth waiting for the situation in eastern Ukraine to unfold in the coming weeks.

They will have to ask the Whitey House first.

To the current Ukrainian leaders it certainly is. Too bad there won’t be much of a country left after this is over.

“.... and next to Ukraine are the countries that will guarantee Russia’s commitment not to attack,” he explained.”

International powers providing a military guarantee of Ukraine’s security sounds like joining NATO in all but name.

And Zelensky will go begging for US taxpayers money to rebuild Ukraine for at least a decade…minus Joe’s 10 percent.

And if we can prove once again that the Russian army is a rudiment, a useless institution, then we will have a great opportunity to prove that Russia as a state must stop dictating any conditions in the world,” said the Adviser to the Head of the President’s Office.

What is he smoking? The US has dictated world policy ( or tried to) for decades. Think recent- Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Bosnia, etc..and all the time with the USD. Weaponizing the USD like slow Joe just did dethroned the USD. Senile Joe just shot us in the foot.

Ukraine should demand Belarus and the port of Sochi as part of an expanded Ukraine. And the PRC is “West Taiwan”.
