We still haven't seen any official texts. Without documents, a substantive discussion is meaningless. Wars do not end based on rumors.The text of the 'agreement' of unknown origin circulating online is a document that Putin will never sign. Therefore, it's not even worth considering how to evaluate it from a Ukrainian point of view.On Thursday evening, the Kremlin distributed footage from Putin's meeting where he not only announced the "capture of Kupiansk" but also stated that the leadership of Ukraine is a "criminal group that has usurped power under the pretext of continuing the war." This means that under no circumstances will Putin meet with Zelenskyy or negotiate with him.In these conditions, the most rational course of action for Ukraine is to pass the negotiation ball into the Russian court. That is why Zelenskyy did not throw the proposed text in the trash but formally suggested "working on it."In other words, no real peace agreement project that could end the war currently exists. Russia will not make any agreements because Putin believes he has already 'defeated' Ukraine, and he has nothing to talk about with a 'criminal group.' The only thing that will satisfy him is the complete capitulation of Ukraine. How this should happen, in his opinion—whether Ukraine falls on its own or Trump 'helps'—is irrelevant to Putin.SourceAbout the author.
