Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky presented his long-anticipated “Victory Plan” to Ukrainian parliament on Wednesday, after failing to drum up additional, tangible support last week during meetings with European allies.
The plan, which consists of five points and three additional “secret” points shared only with certain partners, would be a bridge toward future peace talks with Russia, Zelensky told lawmakers in Kyiv, as he aims to bolster Ukraine’s position enough to end the war.
At the heart of Zelensky’s plan is Ukraine’s desire for an invitation to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), which would be a precursor to full NATO membership, but something that Ukraine’s allies have been cool on with the country still at war with Russia.
It also outlines provisions to strengthen Ukraine’s defense, implement a non-nuclear strategic deterrence package and grow Ukraine’s economy.
“If we start implementing this Victory Plan now, we may be able to end the war no later than next year,” Zelensky said in a plea to his own lawmakers and more crucially, Ukraine’s backers abroad.
But many of the provisions in the plan have already been floated by Kyiv.
The Ukrainian president first presented the victory plan to US President Joe Biden during a September visit to the White House. The Biden administration ordered a surge of additional assistance for Ukraine during that visit and unveiled a $375 million aid package, but stopped short of meeting Kyiv’s demands for permission to strike deeper into Russia. Biden has repeatedly said the US and allies “have to support Ukraine on its path to membership to both the EU and to NATO, and to continue to make reforms to counter corruption,” but an invitation to join has not yet been extended.

But he didn't give details about what a non-nuclear deterrent would look like in practice.
His plan has five points and three additional “secret” points which are going to be shared only with certain partners. He didn't disclose who the "certain members" are.
His plan is purposely vague on other matters as well.
Zelensky likes to play fast and loose.
hmmm, btw bio-weapons are forbidden under international law
we just need to sign the treaty in order to be able to read what is inside it...
:-/
Shouldn’t a “victory plan” being the works long before he got the first bullet?
What allies?
Serious question, which nation(s) has/have an alliance with the Ukraine?
>>>>hmmm, btw bio-weapons are forbidden under international law<<<<
The WHO advised Ukraine to destroy high-threat pathogens housed in the their public health labs over 3 years ago.
Do you think Ukraine followed their advice?
:-/<<<<
Pelosi certainly has a way with words.
>>>>Shouldn’t a “victory plan” being the works long before he got the first bullet?<<<<
A “Victory Plan” should have been in the works long before he got the first American Taxpayer dollar.
“Sep 27, 2024 — To date, nearly 50 Allies and partner countries have provided security assistance to Ukraine.”
That would be helpful if I knew who said it, what that person means by “Allies” and “partner countries”, and who those fifty countries are by name.
>>>>What allies?
Serious question, which nation(s) has/have an alliance with the Ukraine?<<<<
Back in July, the Biden Regime came up with the “Ukraine Compact”, signed by the leaders of 23 countries who share the common goal “that Ukraine that is free, sovereign, democratic, independent, and prosperous, and able to defend itself and deter future aggression...”
“We the leaders of the United States of America, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, together with the President of the European Council, the President of the European Commission, and the President of Ukraine...”
“To date, nearly 50 Allies and partner countries have provided security assistance to Ukraine.”
And the Ukes are still losing. What a short bus country.

“To date, nearly 50 Allies and partner countries have provided security assistance to Ukraine. Among their many contributions to Ukraine, Allies and partners have delivered 10 long-range Multiple Launch Rocket Systems (MLRS), 178 long-range artillery systems, nearly 100,000 rounds of long-range artillery ammunition, nearly 250,000 anti-tank munitions, 359 tanks, 629 armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs), 8,214 short-range air defense missiles, and 88 lethal UAVs.”
Holding off the world’s second strongest nation that shares a border with them, and now fighting North Korea as well, and approaching their 3rd year of fighting off the invaders, is probably more than what you expected 32 months ago.

Zzzzzz___yyy sounds like a branch office manager for the Hairless/Balz campaign! Then again, I guess UKR *is* more or less a DemonRat client territory. I bet they have swing state mail-in ballot processing facilities.
>> Holding off the world’s second strongest nation that shares a border with them
The USA shares a border with UKR??!? Who knew?
We’ve never seen NATO fight a war, they brought down Russia’s empire without a war.
>>>>The Victory Plan is for Zelensky to retire in Switzerland with his our hundreds of millions of dollars and live the good life.<<<<
“I’ll take grifter for $1,000, Alex.”
