Former US Ambassador to NATO Kurt Volker on why Putin will never agree to peace, and what it will actually take to stop the war.

"Putin believes Ukraine should be part of the Russian Empire. He will never agree to a peace agreement because that would mean Ukraine is a sovereign, independent country."

The goal isn't peace — it's a lasting ceasefire. And that requires enough pressure that Putin can no longer sustain the war without risking the Russian state itself.

#Ukraine #Russia #Putin #NATO #NationalSecurity Kurt Volker on why Vladimir Putin will never agree to a genuine peace deal — and what it will actually take to end the war.

Putin believes Ukraine should be part of the Russian Empire. A peace agreement would mean recognizing Ukraine as a sovereign country with a legitimate leader and an international border. He will never accept that.

The goal instead is a lasting ceasefire — and that requires enough pressure on Putin that he no longer has the financial or military means to continue without risking the Russian state itself. We're closer than ever, but not there yet.
