Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger called for an end to the conflict in Ukraine as soon as possible. And this should be done at the negotiating table, the patriarch of American diplomacy is sure. Otherwise, he believes, prolonging the situation is fraught with escalation of tension in the region.
The politician stressed that in the event of an endless conflict, the situation will become similar to the First World War. Other countries will also be involved in it. Therefore, the NATO bloc needs to determine now what the result will be and sit down at the negotiating table.
Kissinger shared his opinion in an interview with CNN. At the same time, the 99-year-old American opposed the fact that the countries of the Alliance made concessions to Russia. He believes that Moscow should not receive “any benefit” from the special operation. The diplomat advised to demand the return of up to 20% of the territories taken under control.
Recall. Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine on February 24. Its purpose, according to the definition of the President of the Russian Federation, is “the protection of people who are being subjected to genocide by the Kiev regime.”
