Finns det ens någon möjlighet att diskutera en fredsuppgörelse med Zelensky ?
I den här artikeln från TIME som skrevs för ett drygt år sedan, framstår Zelensky som besatt av att besegra Ryssland. Några fredsförhandlingar finns inte på kartan. Hans närmaste rådgivare verkar bekymrade över hans tillstånd, omöjligt att diskutera med Zelensky.
Citat:
“Nobody believes in our victory like I do. Nobody,” Zelensky told TIME in an interview after his trip.
----
Despite the recent setbacks on the battlefield, he does not intend to give up fighting or to sue for any kind of peace. On the contrary, his belief in Ukraine’s ultimate victory over Russia has hardened into a form that worries some of his advisers. It is immovable, verging on the messianic. “He deludes himself,” one of his closest aides tells me in frustration. “We’re out of options. We’re not winning. But try telling him that.”
Zelensky’s stubbornness, some of his aides say, has hurt their team’s efforts to come up with a new strategy, a new message. As they have debated the future of the war, one issue has remained taboo: the possibility of negotiating a peace deal with the Russians.
