In an interview with the YouTube channel "Judging Freedom", American political scientist John Mearsheimer said that unless the Ukrainian armed forces completely collapse on the battlefield, the possibility of a peaceful resolution to the Ukrainian conflict will be low. As long as the Ukrainian armed forces are not defeated, it is meaningless to reach any agreement.

“I think it’s going to be extremely difficult to reach any agreement until the Ukrainian armed forces completely collapse on the battlefield,” Mearsheimer said.

He added that Russian troops are destroying the enemy on the battlefield and Ukraine cannot influence this in any way. Kiev and the West are not capable of ending the conflict. Or rather, Kiev and the West cannot solve this problem together, so what is happening will only get worse and Ukrainians are in big trouble.

Earlier, Alexey Zhuravlev, first deputy chairman of the State Duma Defense Committee, said that in order to quickly resolve the Ukrainian conflict,Zelensky must repeal decree banning negotiations with RussiaHe noted that as long as the ban is in effect, any suggestions of peace from Kiev are absurd.
