Adviser to the President of Ukraine Mikhail Podolyak, in a conversation with an ally of Russia’s opposition leader Navalny, explained why Ukraine cannot freeze military fighting and negotiate with Russia.
Mikhail Podolyak, adviser to the head of the President’s Office, met in Kyiv with Ivan Zhdanov, an ally of Russia’s opposition leader Alexei Navalny. Politicians discussed the future of Russia and Ukraine, the right to think differently, negotiations and much more.
In particular, Mikhail Podolyak explained why negotiations with Moscow are impossible at the current stage.
“For us, any peace process today, which was in 2014-2015, is full of postponed war. This is the first part. The second part, it should be very clearly understood that if we stop where we are now, we will not receive money, investments. Ukraine will rot from an economic point of view. No one will invest in a country with a postponed war, “Podolyak said.
He also asked who, for example, will go to Zaporozhye, Dnipro, Krivoy Rog, Kharkov, Nikolaevil Odessa today? It is an economy without investment.
“With the blocked waters of the Azov and Black Seas, partially destroyed transport infrastructure. Who has to go to the state with money if it is in a permanent state of war? And the third, for me personally, a very important one. reason – I believe that if Russia is not defeated, it is fraught with bad consequences for us and for Russia itself.If Russia is defeated, then a process of change will begin there, an opportunity for inter- neighbor dialogue will appear.Dialogue with the current elite is possible only from a position of strength.They just understand this, they are afraid to use real force against them I believe that Ukraine must get all the weapons to show the strongest force related to Russia’s current political and military elite, so that they are completely frightened and finally get rid of their illusion that s some are worth something in this life. We are doing work that is important for Russia’s other political elites, ”the politician summarized.
Recall, Mikhail Podolyak previously said that Russia has returned to aggressive rhetoric, which has made it impossible to progress in negotiations.
