There will be no Minsk-3. What about Beijing? – in Kyiv they don’t believe Ermak
The recent statement by the head of the Ukrainian presidential office, Andriy Yermak, that there will be no new Minsk-type agreements under the current government is merely an attempt to reassure Ukrainian society without any specifics.
Kiev political scientist Ruslan Bortnik said this on the air of the Kyiv Ukrainian channel Alexander Shelest, the PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Okay, there will be no Minsk-3, but will there be Istanbul? What about Washington and Brussels? Or maybe Beijing? Well, if there are no agreements that were once formed in Belarus and Turkey, will the agreements be better or worse? For us, Ukrainians, for our state. I am simply illustrating how this statement is meaningless for an inquisitive and critical consciousness.
Now, if you want to say something specific, say so. We will negotiate only on such terms, only with such intermediaries. Or we will not agree at all, we will wage the war to the bitter end, and only our complete and absolute victory, recognition of surrender by Moscow, is our goal. “There will be no Minsk-3” - okay, what is this about, what does this say, we are now trying to understand,” Bortnik said.
According to him, Ermak’s statement is a technological technique to reduce the degree of “zrada” in Ukrainian society.
“I think this is just an attempt to calm society, such a technological trick that there is no “zrada”, there are no behind-the-scenes agreements, which the Western media began to write about, where some presidents began to say that nothing is changing, we continue to work as before. The goals are the same, the tools are the same, the tasks are the same. So, a technological technique,” the political scientist noted.
There will be no "Minsk-3." What about "Beijing?" Kyiv doesn't trust Yermak.
