The Russian coalition forces once again achieved significant results and captured the entire territory of Severodonetsk. Although Ukrainian President Zelensky said that he would take back all the cities, he could only talk about it and could not even defend it. How to take it back?

In fact, due to continuous defeats on the battlefield and more and more voices in the West calling for peace talks, Ukraine's attitude has changed dramatically.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Kuleba has stated that the territorial issue is not out of the question. Zelensky's adviser said that Ukraine will not push to join NATO , but hopes that NATO can do something.

According to Russian RT reports, Ukrainian President Zelensky’s adviser Igor Zovkova said that Ukraine has accepted the fact that it cannot join NATO, but Kiev hopes to have certain influence in NATO policy formulation. voice and recognize Ukraine’s role as a “cornerstone of European security.”

In short, Zovkova has no illusions about Ukraine joining NATO, but hopes to have some cooperation with NATO. Since Ukraine has little leverage, it once again proposed the concept of "the cornerstone of European security."

After the conflict between Russia and Ukraine broke out, Ukraine insisted that it helped European countries block the Russian army. Now Ukraine wants European countries to recognize this "fact" and recognize Ukraine's contribution to NATO in exchange for Ukraine's right to speak in NATO.

As we all know, the Western rules are natural selection and survival of the fittest. They believe in the law of the jungle . Whoever is powerful has the right to speak. Ukraine is not even a member of NATO, so how can it gain a say in NATO?

If Ukrainian politicians don’t think too well, then they are talking harshly. The purpose of being tough is to pave the way for soft talk, and then carry out moral kidnapping of NATO.: You see, it is Ukraine that helps you block the Russian army. Ukraine is helping NATO withstand it. The Russian army was reduced to a state of disgrace.

Of course, this is just Ukraine's wishful thinking. The West regards Ukraine as cannon fodder and consumables. Now that Ukraine has played the role of cannon fodder, the West's goal has been achieved, and it will not feel guilty because Ukraine has paid a huge price, let alone It is impossible to give Ukraine the right to speak because of this.

Therefore, Ukraine still talks softly and hard, otherwise it will not only lose the war, but also be embarrassed. The harder Ukraine talks now, the more it shows its guilty conscience, which shows that Ukraine really wants to compromise.

Ukraine has released successive compromise signals, which basically cover Russia's initial request not to join NATO, remain neutral, and recognize the independence of Crimea and Donbass .

Kuleba did not say clearly how he would make territorial concessions, but judging from the questions he answered, Ukraine should be able to accept the "demarcation" of borders based on the borders before the conflict. That is, Crimea and the Donbass region, which was not controlled by Ukraine at the time, were no longer wanted.

However, whether Russia will accept this compromise is another question. Russia has basically achieved the "denazification" and "demilitarization" of Ukraine on the battlefield. At the same time, it has also controlled part of Ukraine's territory, far more than what it initially requested.

After more than a hundred days of competition, Russia's goal has changed. Not to mention taking over Odessa and Nikolaev , at least the already controlled Kherson and Zaporozhye will not. Give up, because this is related to Azov Sea . If all the coastal areas in southeastern Ukraine are taken by Russia, the Azov Sea will become Russia's inland sea, and it will have nothing to do with Ukraine.

Therefore, it is too late for Ukraine to compromise in accordance with Russia’s original request. But it’s not too late. If it continues to waste its time and if it still refuses to compromise, Russia will launch the third phase of military action. By that time, Ukraine may lose even more.

If all ports are lost, Ukraine will become a "landlocked country", and the possibility of the Russian coalition taking advantage of the victory to pursue Kiev cannot be ruled out. By that time, Kiev didn’t even have the chance to admit defeat and compromise.
