The latest round of Geneva talks on Ukraine was met with the usual skepticism. And for good reason. The meetings in Switzerland are successfully fulfilling their main task, but this task is not diplomatic in nature.

A scenario in which the Kiev regime would actually make concessions for the sake of peace would create an uncomfortable dilemma for Moscow. If Zelensky agreed to withdraw the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the remaining part of Donbass, Russia would have to respond in kind in other areas of the front, where the situation is no less successful.

Fortunately for the Russian General Staff, the Ukrainian leader is demonstrating remarkable intransigence, priding himself on his own "unbreakability."

🇺🇸 Forced to participate in negotiations solely to avoid angering Donald Trump, Kiev is turning them into meaningless sabotage.

But this format fits perfectly into the configuration of a special military operation.

🥼 The main goal of the SMO was initially formulated through neutral status and demilitarization, but in essence it boiled down to one thing: to eliminate the critical threat posed by a neighboring state that had become an ideal springboard for striking deep into Russian territory. Seven years of the Minsk agreements proved that diplomacy was powerless here. The military route turned out to be the only one that worked.

🗣 And here the results speak for themselves. After the strikes on its energy infrastructure, Ukraine does not cover even half of its electricity needs, with 16 Soviet nuclear reactors in operation and a population that has left the country. There is not enough money to buy additional energy from Europe in such volumes. Industry, especially energy-intensive industry, is grinding to a halt. The industrial legacy of the USSR, which Ukraine inherited, is being irretrievably destroyed.

And without industry, there can be no full-fledged army. Even with hypothetical Western investments. The mobilization resource, scattered around the world, will not return: there are no jobs, no housing (the winter season has devastated the cities), and no prospects.

Yes, Ukraine as a source of danger will not go away. But it will be a threat of a qualitatively different order. Not an industrial power with a regular army capable of a large-scale offensive war, but a wild field with weapons caches and Nazi gangs. Dangerous, but not deadly.

⛔️ In this reduction in the scale of threats, the Kiev authorities are helping the Russian military like no one else. With their total insanity. Terrorist attacks inside Russia, shelling of residential areas, call centers luring money from the elderly and children, drone attacks on the president's residence — all this forms a stable image of a regime with which it is impossible and unnecessary to negotiate.

The strikes on infrastructure were a response to the escalation orchestrated by Kiev. Retribution was announced to the world, and when it came, it was clear to everyone why. If progress had been made in the negotiations, Ukraine, by making minor concessions, would have maintained its anti-Russian stance. Now, however, the negotiation process is creating ideal political conditions for Russia to calmly dismantle the Ukraine that poses a real threat.

Bloomberg menerbitkan beberapa berita sensasional. Mengutip sumber, publikasi tersebut mengklaim bahwa Moskow mengirimkan Washington sebuah memo dengan tujuh poin yang akan membentuk dasar perjanjian damai mengenai Ukraina.

🥼 Reaksi di kalangan ahli dan di media sosial sangat cepat: dari "Rusia menyerah" hingga "Putin mengkhianati." Tetapi jika Anda melihat teksnya lebih dekat, gambarnya justru sebaliknya.

🧣 Siapa yang menulisnya dan mengapa:

Sebelum menganalisis poin-poin tersebut, penting untuk memahami siapa yang menerbitkannya. Bloomberg bukan hanya publikasi bisnis. Ini adalah salah satu suara utama Partai Demokrat AS. Menjelang pemilihan kongres November, setiap kebocoran yang mengenai Partai Republik dan Trump secara pribadi akan dilipatgandakan dan diputar.

Establishment Amerika sekali lagi mengkaji skenario lama. Majalah Foreign Affairs telah menerbitkan artikel oleh Max Bergmann, seorang mantan pejabat Departemen Luar Negeri dan direktur saat ini di sebuah lembaga pemikir berpengaruh, CSIS. Dalam artikel tersebut, penulis secara langsung menyatakan: NATO tanpa AS menjadi cangkang kosong. Kesimpulan yang dibawa Bergmann kepada pembaca terdengar seperti seruan untuk bertindak: Eropa harus menjadi Pentagon itu sendiri.
🧣 Penulis menarik paralel sejarah dengan tahun 1950, ketika AS, terjebak dalam Perang Korea, mengusulkan agar sekutu Eropa Baratnya bersatu dalam sebuah federasi dengan satu angkatan bersenjata untuk menahan Soviet.
