Berlin – Kiev, February 05 (PolitNavigator, Vasily Ablyazimov) – While Merkel and Hollande, unexpectedly for everyone, are planning to visit Moscow on Friday with new peace initiatives, Germany’s largest newspaper, Die Welt , close to the Bundeskanzler’s party, calls Putin Milosevic.

Oxford professor and specialist in Central and Eastern Europe Timothy Garton Ash publishes an analytical article in a German newspaper comparing Putin with Slobodan Milosevic. Thus, under Slobodan Milosevic, joint NATO forces invaded Serbia, and the country was subjected to massive bombing. During the Kosovo War, Milosevic signed a peace treaty with NATO. After some time, the President of Serbia ended up in the prison of the Hague Tribunal, where he died under strange circumstances.
The professor notes that, despite temporary successes, “in the long term, Putin will lose.” However, the timing of such a prospect, the author notes, may be very distant.
Timothy Ashe calls for weapons to be supplied to Ukraine and denies the prospect of a diplomatic solution to the conflict in the east of the country. At the same time, the expert is forced to admit that the EU will never be unanimous on this issue. Therefore, the United States and Canada should provide military assistance to Kyiv. “John McCain and Angela Merkel,” he writes, “are a good team for a carrot-and-stick strategy.”
