Michel Goya responded to Alice Rufo that calling for negotiations or a peace conference without concrete proposals no longer addressed the question. He wrote that, for two years, Ukraine had been asking for an end to fighting on the current front line, and then to be left in peace. According to him, Vladimir Putin would accept this option provided that Ukraine cedes the Donbass and renounces having an army and defense forces. Goya believed that the choice was now between convincing the Ukrainians to capitulate and persuading Putin to end his aggression. He added that Donald Trump had quickly settled this question, while others might choose a "more dignified" position. #Ukraine #Poutine #Géopolitique (translated)
