NATO Secretary General refrained from calling Putin demented
Putin's conditions for ending the war in Ukraine cannot be called a peace proposal, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said. The demands put forward by the master of the Kremlin border on absurdity and are a "parody of international law."
"It is not Ukraine that should withdraw troops from Ukrainian territory, but Russia," Stoltenberg stressed the obvious, adding that Putin's "conditions", which suggests the exact opposite, "testifies not to Putin's goodwill", but to his desire to "achieve military goals" in Ukraine. "That is, this is not a peace proposal, but a proposal that involves an even greater occupation," Stoltenberg stated and promised that the countries of the alliance will continue to provide military support to Kyiv.
As conditions for the start of negotiations Putin wants:
- Ukraine to Ukraine to give up its four occupied regions - Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions - and completely withdraws the Ukrainian troops from this Ukrainian territory;
- the transfer of these territories, as well as Crimea and Sevastopol, under the control of Russia be recorded in international documents,
- Ukraine's commitment not to join NATO;
- Ukraine agree to a "neutral, non-aligned, nuclear-free status";
- Ukraine undergo a "denazification" and "demilitarization,";
- all Western sanctions against the ruZZia must be lifted.
In Ukraine, Putin's new conditions were rightly called "a standard set of aggressors," in which there is "no novelty and desire to end the war." "Its content is quite specific, extremely offensive to international law and speaks volumes about the inability of the current Russian leadership to adequately assess the realities," said Mykhailo Podolyak, adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine.
In short, all what Putin didn't achieve by blackmail, lies, military attacks and war crimes should be gifted to him now by Ukraine, so that he might be "willing to start peace talks."
This is totally insane. Someone should check Putin's mental health...
