Why US, Russia are opting for brinkmanship instead of talks to end Ukraine war

Firstpost  

The question is whether the US wants to raise the stakes and demonstrate Western support for Ukraine or if there is a larger game plan that involves tying Trump’s hands as far as negotiations are concerned The recent developments may not be enough to change the tide of war as far as Ukraine is concerned but have opened up a new dimension till the start of a tussle for the strongest negotiating position in potential future talks to end it. Western powers substantially boosted Ukraine’s military arsenal while Russia reacted with a new nuclear doctrine and a strike by its Oreshnik missile. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on the sidelines of the G20 Summit, “If the long-range missiles are used from the territory of Ukraine against the Russian territory, it will mean that they are controlled by American military experts, and we will view that as a qualitatively new phase of the Western war against Russia and respond accordingly.” He urged the US and other Western allies to study the revised nuclear doctrine. The Russian president said that Moscow had struck a Ukrainian military facility with a new ballistic missile and said its deployment “was a response to US plans to produce and deploy intermediate and short-range missiles”, and that Russia would “respond decisively and symmetrically” in the event of an escalation.
