What is demanded from Ukraine in current negotiations is tantamount to surrender – said the Safety Policy Expert Christian Moelling in an interview with the ARD station in the context of American proposals regarding a truce in Ukraine.
According to Moelling, US President Donald Trump must have something to demonstrate to be able to say that the task he imposed on himself was completed. “Apparently he doesn't care what will happen next,” he added.
Trump's position is very similar to the Kremlin's position. He demands from Ukraine, victims of aggression and concessions that Ukraine cannot agree to. What's more, it is not clear at how “contract, agreement – or whatever you want to call it” It should be implemented, “noted Christian Moelling.
Expert of the security policy expert reminded that in recent years Russia has repeatedly broken its own promises. Trump seems willing to accept Russia's offer, without even wondering if it is possible to maintain at all. Ultimately, Ukraine did not gain anything that could be considered certain.
