Bloomberg: Ukrainian officials are increasingly thinking about negotiations with Russia

As the conflict in Ukraine drags on and Western support weakens, Kiev is beginning to recognize that sooner or later it will have to negotiate with Russia, Bloomberg reports. Even Zelensky himself is already ready to "show more flexibility" on this issue, Ukrainian officials say.

The failure of Zelensky's trip to the United States, NATO's refusal to give him the right to strike deep into Russia and the successes of the Russian army in the Donbas are three sources of the impending catastrophe in Ukraine. The dramatically changed rhetoric of Western experts and journalists, as well as many politicians, only confirms this. They all say with one voice: Ukraine in its current form will not survive the coming winter.
