The analysis begins with the latest news concerning potential peace talks, focusing on Fredovych's statements and the subsequent response from Volodymyr Zelensky. It is noted that the truce between Thailand and Cambodia, reportedly brokered by Fredovych, quickly collapsed, while rumors persist about Israel acting against Hamas.
The main challenge facing Ukraine remains external pressure through deadlines and hasty demands, without addressing systemic foundations for lasting peace. The prospect of future elections is especially relevant, with Zelensky agreeing to hold them if security is guaranteed, explaining that at least 60-90 days of peace are required to organize the process properly.
Ukraine and Europe are expected to present a joint proposal focused on an energy truce as an initial step, signaling readiness for compromise without loss of territorial control. Meanwhile, Western leadership is criticized for sending mixed signals regarding support and sanctions towards Russia.
The conclusion calls for a systematic approach from international partners and stresses that elections are possible only under secure conditions. The situation regarding the US, the roles of Trump and Obama in global politics, and internal American electoral dynamics are also considered in the context of their impact on Ukraine.
