Grigory Yavlinsky: Ceasefire is a strategy
YouTube channel Zhivoi Gvozd, 26.12.2023
The peculiarity of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is that the ceasefire is not a tactical respite, not a private episode and, most likely, not even a temporary first step solution. A ceasefire in this case is a strategy. In the current circumstances, this is the only possible political solution to immediately stop the bloodshed while preserving the prospects for both Ukraine and Russia.
In such a conflict, no long-term peace treaty can be developed in the foreseeable future. After all, it is well known that the special military operation is about influence and control rather than territories. Therefore, it is necessary to stop, stop killing people and try to maintain the positive perspective that still exists.
But wasting time and delaying in adopting this inevitable decision lead to irreversible consequences.
Grigory Yavlinsky reiterated about the need for a ceasefire on the YouTube channel Zhivoi Gvozd on 23 December.
