According to the publication, Western allies have increased pressure on Kyiv in favor of a specific plan to end the war.
Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky is ready to soften his position in negotiations with the Russian Federation due to fears of a decline in Western support. This was stated in a Bloomberg article on Tuesday, October 8.
Zelensky’s “victory plan” was greeted coldly in Washington, one of the sources said, but they offered to draw up a road map of needs for the next year, including military equipment, aid in industrial development and financial support. At the same time, the parties did not touch the topic of concessions to Russia, because Zelensky publicly rejects such an idea. However, as Bloomberg writes, the allies increasingly look to a “peaceful end to the war through negotiations.”
According to one of the officials contacted by the publication, the Ukrainian victory plan has not been made public due to the fact that Ukrainian officials are likely to use “the element of strategic uncertainty to move forward.”
As Bloomberg added, Zelensky has become more inclined to compromise, despite public statements about the immutability of his “peace plan.”
It is known that Vladimir Putin had previously developed his conditions for the start of negotiations, including the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from the territories of Donbass and Novorossiya, refusal to join NATO, acceptance of non-aligned, non-nuclear and neutral status of Ukraine. , as well as the removal of all Western sanctions.
We remind you that the US presidential candidate from the Republican Party, Donald Trump, said that he would “achieve negotiations” between Putin and Zelensky if elected.
