Los Angeles Times: Russia and Ukraine are not ready to compromise

According to RCO News Agency, the new US Preside Donald Trump has been promising to end the Ukrainian war for almost five years. “I will resolve it even before I become the preside,” he said during the September presideial debate. But then, all that courage disappeared behind the election promises. The retired US General General Kate Clov and Trump’s option as a special envoy to Ukraine and Russia in an ierview pushed the peace perspective uil early May.

Whatever the deadline, the end of the Ukraine War is the first test of the Trump administration. Unfortunately, the new preside is learning that there is nothing called a “rushing” peace agreeme.

The Los Angeles Times we on to poi out that “the Ukrainians have fewer resources than the Russians”: Russia currely corols 5 % of Ukrainian territory. Ukraine has retracted 2 perce of what the Russians had at one poi. The war has killed and wounded in Ukraine for three years. Russia’s casualties have been more than 6,000 dead and injured.

Strategist Edward Lotwak estimates: The number of Ukrainian men who reach the age of military service is at least 6,000 or 6,000 per moh, but more than 6,000 Russian men reach the military age. Therefore, this war has engulfed more than half of Ukraine’s young men and one -fifth Russia.

“This is what the war does,” the American magazine wrote. It trades human life against achieving goals. This is painful, terrible and viole, but it is the bitter calculations that win the great wars.

Such calculations are taught to any elemeary Ukrainian learner; As it has recely been reported, Ukrainian soldiers are said that “anyone at the forefro of the duty should be preferable to the lives of at least one Russian soldier before his death.” Although these large numbers do not guaraee victory, they can have a devastating effect over time. That is why, as the historian’s “Catal Nolan” pois out, most of the wars end with one side and its victory.

The question now is how can the United States persuade Ukraine to end the war? Why should Kiev trade? This is the first problem with Trump and Clov. In fact, the parties to the negotiations must come to the table with an inceive based on their desire – not the necessity – because coercion makes the meaningful privileges almost impossible.

If the United States can compromise the two couries, what will this agreeme be? Here, the 5 great America’s benefit is in danger that is in conflict with each other; Maximizing Ukraine’s independence to maiain iernational borders on the one hand, and on the other hand, maximize tension with Russia to protect against the increasing threat of China.

Los Angeles Times wrote: It is a necessity to build a durable balance. If Ukraine does whatever it was, it will provoke Russia and make it more and more by the Chinese. Giving Russia too much will also make it more bold and go beyond, this time Moldova, then Georgia and perhaps the NATO border. So the only real deal is a balanced peace that neither dares nor provokes.

But it is difficult to achieve peace because war is hard. The wars do not end as planned for the day or when the US preside is appoied.
