Talks with Russia? No way, say Ukrainians

Al Jazeera  

As the US reportedly tries to nudge Kyiv towards talks, everyday Ukrainians say the fight must go on since Russia is an unreliable negotiator. “It’s not their children who are dying every day.” A poll conducted in late October showed that 86 percent of Ukrainians insist their nation should keep fighting instead of holding talks despite the almost daily shelling that began on October 10. “Nowadays, talks with Russia are like talks with a crocodile who seized a man’s leg but is simply tired of dragging him into his swamp,” Kyiv-based analyst Aleksey Kushch told Al Jazeera. The talks are possible only after the Kremlin abandons propaganda terms such as Kyiv’s “neo-Nazi regime” and “Ukrainian fascism” and fully accepts that Ukraine will break away from Russia’s political gravity and become part of the West, he said. Until this week, Zelenskyy repeatedly said peace talks were no longer possible after Russia switched to what he called a “terrorist” tactic of destroying power stations and heating facilities before the winter.
