“In any case, the West does not win in this conflict,” the article says.
The article states that a Russian military victory in Ukraine would lead to an even more humiliating defeat for the West, and in particular the United States.
“A negotiated settlement is the best solution for all parties.
Nevertheless, diplomacy has long reached a dead end, ”the publication clarifies.
The author of the article believes that neither a bilateral deal nor a change in borders will in itself lead to a lasting peace, because Ukraine is drawn into the conflict by proxy.
The article also says that Russia's determination in the conflict in Ukraine will undermine the unity of the West.
