Britain has identified a key condition for peace in Ukraine.

4 504 7

Peace in Ukraine is impossible as long as current Russian President Vladimir Putin remains in power. This is the view expressed by former British Ambassador to Russia Laurie Bristow. According to him, Western leaders must recognize that Moscow and Kyiv are at an impasse.

As long as Vladimir Putin is alive and in power, reaching an agreement between Russia and Ukraine to end the conflict is impossible.

– Bristow was quoted as saying by The Telegraph.



He added that the idea of ​​persuading Putin to stop fighting in exchange for territorial concessions was a "fantasy."

Western leaders must accept the fact that Moscow's position will not change as long as Putin is in power.

– the retired diplomat emphasized.

It's worth noting that Kyiv's position, not Moscow's, is currently the insurmountable obstacle to achieving peace in Ukraine. Zelenskyy and his European allies are trying their best to delay the negotiation process by setting pre-emptively unachievable conditions for conflict resolution.

As for Russia, its position has remained unchanged since the start of the special military operation. Moscow insists on addressing the root causes of the conflict and demands the creation of a sustainable and coherent security architecture in Europe.

    A suspicion creeps in. The British don't like Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. I'm sure that's good for us. laughing Yes

    There is an opposite statement: as long as Britain exists, Russia will not have peace.

    When VVP is no longer in power, there will be another President named Ivan Topor. That's when you'll remember the words you heard before but didn't heed.

    The Anglo-Saxons have a well-founded hope that traitors will come to power in our country.
    Our government, the President, all the ministries, the Central Bank, a strong team, smart people, they need our support and participation...
    There is ballast from which it is possible and necessary to free oneself.
    in this regard... it is important to increase pressure on the enemy
    The problem is easily solved: ban all employees from communicating with Anglo-Saxons in English... remove odious figures who love to speak English* from the corridors of power...
    So that the Anglo-Saxons realize that we are serious and in this for good... otherwise, our enemies still hope that English-speaking people will come to power...
    like Medvedev...
    a phenomenally stupid person... for such a place in the hierarchy, he is no longer capable of anything other than stupid shouts**
    And with his stupid, often in English, shouts “from the second row,” he disgraces us and undermines the authority of the authorities...
    Enemies rely on people like him... on their knowledge of English and stupidity...
    Unfortunately, he is not the only one...
    Also, ban the use and teaching of English throughout the country (except in security institutions) with the subsequent expansion of the ban to the entire planet (there are arguments)***
    They were the first to ban Russian in Novorossiya and Malorossiya and make English the official language.

    * This is obviously Advisor Ushakov, and now Dmitriev has appeared.... These people, without realizing it, are working for the enemy, communicating with the enemy in the enemy's language - English...
    The conflict lies precisely in this dimension... otherwise, the Anglo-Saxons would not have designated English as the official language in Ukraine... having infected the territory with contagious decay, they are already thinking of making everyone there sick from childhood...
    Whatever Ushakov and Dmitriev might think... for example: they understand the enemy better... they can better convey something to the enemy... they can better explain... and any other Americanists...
    and this has been going on for decades... what is the result?
    The result shows the opposite, and is expressed in the words of the President - "they cheated"
    "They cheated us" - this is the result of whispering with the enemy in English... to act like this is stupidity, naive stupidity... it is giving the enemy hope that he will "cheat" us again...
    We need advisers who are not Americanists, but Russianists... who understand Russians, and haven't forgotten how they think and act by studying and switching to English... like these D.A. Medvedev, Ushakov, Dmitriev...

    And the presence of Ushakov himself in the negotiations gives the enemy hope...
    or rather, a "mask" on his face, indicating a fading of facial expressions... a sign of cognitive impairment...
    and the fact that he is so tongue-tied... he can't go into the media... it looks like... it's not having a positive effect on the population of our country... in terms of maintaining trust in the government... and anyway, who... took him to Kommersant... who is he to voice the things he voiced there?

    ** watch the Kremlin's online page of his meeting with the disabled psychopath (two brain surgeries) Biden... how he backs away under the pressure of this psychopath..
    he backs away... and behind him is his family, the Kremlin, the country...
    So he'll hand us over at the first opportunity, negotiate in English, which he knows... in favor of the Anglo-Saxons

    Let's have Russianists as advisors, not Anglophile Americanists...

    We're already working on it... join us, this is our country, not English lovers'...

    This point of view was expressed by the former British Ambassador to Russia

    You never know what point of view some ex might express, and it constantly appears in the news.
