Foreign Minister explains why Ukraine cannot conduct peace talks with Putin
Ukrainska Pravda via Yahoo ^ | September 5th, 2023 | Ukrainska Pravda

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has said that Kyiv cannot conduct peace talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin because he cannot be trusted.

Details: He said that Putin cannot be trusted, because even if he gives you his word, there is no guarantee that he keeps it.

"He is not a person with whom you can seriously negotiate something. If you think that you have successfully agreed with him, then you are putting yourself in danger of being attacked by him," Kuleba said.

The Ukrainian Foreign Minister believes that the more successful Ukraine is on the battlefield, the more Russia will be ready for negotiations, but he does not see a possibility for negotiations with the Russian Federation in the near future.

"If we want to exist as a nation, if we want to survive, we must win, no matter the cost," Kuleba is convinced.

His last stated position on the subject was “no negotiations until Russia is expelled from all Ukrainian territory”.

I wonder if we’ll hear that again from the government?

So Russian "can" be trusted, because Ukraine is corrupt? Non-sequitur.

I agree with him.
Why would Ukraine negotiate with someone who's on the losing side of a conflict?

Ukraine is winning, right? Oh, they're TOTALLY, TOTALLY kicking Russia's ass. God it's horrific.

Why negotiate when the objective of turning the flower of the press-ganged Armed Forces of the Ukraine into 80/20 bloody hamburger is being achieved?

Claiming that the Russians can’t be trusted is like calling the kettle black. The EU has admitted (Merkel) that they did the Minsk Accords just to buy time to build up their proxy Ukraine on the pie-in-the-sky notion that Ukraine would defeat the Russians. Now the finger-pointing begins in earnest.

He can't conduct peace talks because there's no money in it. The really bucks are in perpetual war.

The Ukie government does what senile Joe tells them to do. The Ukrainian people have had enough. The corrupted little beggar Zelensky was elected, by the people, to make Peace with Russia….in steps in our CIA and DOS…pallets of USD’s, ….here we are.
