is Is a peaceful solution to the conflict still possible?
Russia is the one that has escalated this conflict, which has now just dragged these masses of military to this border. And Russia has to withdraw them or must withdraw them and above all not invade the Ukraine with this, with this whole military. And that now depends on Russia, what in the what, what Putin has just planned, how he reacts if the West doesn’t respond to his demands now. We all don’t know that. The demands are such that Putin must have known the West could not accept them. Because, of course, NATO cannot say, okay, Russia is just dictating to us how we now conduct our enlargement policy or our membership policy. NATO cannot accept that. So now we have to wait and see what Putin does.
To what extent should Ukraine give up its demands to join NATO?
That wouldn’t change anything, because NATO can’t take Ukraine in anyway at the moment. Russia made sure of that. They instigated this war in eastern Ukraine around Donetsk and Lugansk and have separatists there. So they arranged for these Separatists to cede territory. If a country has such an armed, unresolved territorial conflict, it can’t, well, take that country into NATO, so Ukraine’s NATO membership isn’t even up for debate at the moment anyway. And of course Russia knows that too. It took care of that by creating this conflict.
