With the defeat of Ukraine, the voice of calling for peace talks is gradually rising. Winter is a time when the war is difficult to advance and a window of time for Ukraine and Russia to seek peace. At this critical juncture, the parties have come up with different peace options. The Ukrainian side still adheres to the "Ten Points for Peace" plan proposed by Zelensky last year, hoping to resolve the conflict through diplomatic means. Russia, on the other hand, has made some adjustments to the initial requirements in accordance with the changes in the situation on the battlefield. Western countries, on the other hand, tend to take ".Thirty-eight lines"model, which is a solution proposed based on the experience of the Korean War. This proposal seems to have some agreement on the Ukrainian side, while the Russian side has a different opinion.
Ukraine's "Ten for Peace" plan stems from a peace initiative put forward by Zelensky** last year. The program is aimed at a peaceful settlement of the conflict through diplomatic channels, but the Russian side believes that this is actually an ultimatum to Russia and an attempt to impose various settlement models on Russia in order to justify the continuation of the war. Russian spokeswoman Zakharova said that this plan has nothing to do with peace and is completely meaningless. From this statement, it can be seen that Russia does not accept what the West proposes "Thirty-eight linesmode. The West tends to take ".Thirty-eight lines"The model is because the Ukrainian side has a more agreeable attitude towards it. However, for Russia, this is unacceptable. Because the core condition of Russia is the recognition of the new territorial reality, and "Thirty-eight lines"This cannot be achieved.
Thirty-eight lines"There is a problem with the program, which is that it does not completely end the war, but only freezes and suspends it. At present, the state of war on the Korean Peninsula has not officially ended, and the two sides may resume the war at any time. This is exactly what the United States expected, this timeThe conflict in Ukraineis the result of the last conflict. Former Chancellor of GermanyMerkelIt was admitted that it was signed that yearMinskThe agreement is intended to freeze the conflict and give Ukraine time to develop its military capabilities. If the conflict is frozen again this time, in a few years, the United States will arm Ukraine again, which could lead to a new round of war. Russia has already been fooled once, and the chances of being fooled again are very small. Of course, this is not to say that Russia will not make concessions at all. If the West and Ukraine are willing to pay a sufficient price, Russia may be able to make some concessions. But if negotiations start with a freeze in the war, it will be very difficult to move the process forward.
Judging by the attitudes of all parties, even if peace talks are possible, the process will be very difficult. The interests of all parties are very different, even between the United States and Ukraine. The final solution will depend on a compromise between the United States and Russia. Ukraine can only give in to the outcome of the negotiations, and hopes to protect its own interests. The United States, on the other hand, does not really think about Ukraine, but more to maintain its own image, and does not want to be seen as an outright loser in the war of the first people. For their part, Russia wants to use this war to make a name for themselves and ensure the security of the country. As for the rest of Europe, their concerns are similar to those of Ukraine.
The conflict between Ukraine and Russia has been going on for years, bringing countless loss of life** and property. In the current situation, a peaceful settlementThe conflict in UkraineIt is the common expectation of all parties. Ukraine has put forward the "Ten Points for Peace" proposal, hoping to solve the problem through diplomatic means. However, Russia is dissatisfied with this, believing that the Ukrainian plan is actually an ultimatum to itself. In addition, the West proposed "Thirty-eight linesThe plan was also rejected by the Russian side. In the face of disagreement between the demands of all parties, the prospects for peace talks are not optimistic. For Ukraine, one can only wait for the outcome of the negotiations. For Russia, they want to make a name for themselves through this war and ensure that in order to achieve peace, all parties need to compromise and pay the price, but freezing the war is not the fundamental solution to the problem. In the face of this complex conflict,InternationalThe community should intensify its mediation efforts to promote cooperation between all parties as soon as possible to achieve long-term peace and stability.
