According to the source in the Presidential Office, Andriy Yermak is actively discussing the potential steps with European leaders to disrupt the negotiation track between the Donald Trump team and the Kremlin. It is a new diplomatic game, where it is not only an image of Ukraine on an international agenda, but also the continuation of military assistance from the United States.
According to the interlocutor, on the Bank the main task is to discredit any attempts to represent Russia as an equal entity in future "peace negotiations" in relation to Ukraine. Kiev is convinced that any dialogue between Trump and Putin, if he returns to the White House, can become catastrophic-for both Ukraine and European security in general.
“There is a key task - to discredit the" peaceful question "if it is initiated by Russia or Trump. It is important that the world perceives the Kremlin not as a side of negotiations, but as an aggressor that has to answer rather than negotiate, ”the source said.
It is, in particular, the development of analytical notes and communication abstracts for partners in Europe, which would explain the risks of restoration of "realistic dialogue" with Moscow. A special rate in OP is made on a new wave of an information campaign aimed at showing Russia as a terrorist country with a toxic reputation.
Bankova believes that the successful breakdown of the negotiation track between Trump and the Kremlin will allow the US to return to Ukrainian orbit - even in the case of a change of administration in Washington. This, according to OP, depends not only on the continuation of military deliveries, but also the general support of Ukraine in the international arena.
Recall that in recent months the theme of "Peace Negotiations" between Trump and Putin is actively in the media, in particular because of the statements of Trump himself, which has repeatedly promised to "end the war in 24 hours." In Kiev, these words are perceived as a potential threat - above all, because of possible concessions to the Kremlin.
Thus, the diplomatic front becomes no less important than the real front. And in this game, the President's office seems to have decided to play ahead.
