Ukrainian Foreign Minister doubts April meeting in Norman format

44

Foreign Minister of Ukraine Vadim Pristayko said that the meeting in the so-called Norman format, scheduled for April, may not take place. At the same time, Priestayko explained his “fears” about this.

According to the head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, he does not see any preparation for a future meeting, which was previously agreed in France.



Mr. Pristayko reminded reporters that the parties had been preparing for the meeting for about six months between the leaders of 4 states (Russia, Ukraine, France and Germany) in December.

Foreign Minister of Ukraine Vadim Priestayko:

Now about 2 months remain. I do not see any preparation. Maybe this time it will be faster. And maybe we will make much more progress. Sorry, but I doubt it.

That is, Priestayko doubted not only that the meeting in the Norman format would be held in April, but also that such a meeting could bring results.

This very statement from the Foreign Minister of Ukraine actually says that Kiev is not interested in discussing issues related to the problems of Donbass. Accordingly, it is not entirely clear how with this approach it is possible to agree on something with the Ukrainian side.

      After the last Normandy meeting, the situation in Donbass not only did not improve, but worsened and seriously. Prystaiko is simply laying a straw under his department, anticipating that the failure of the Ukrainian side to fulfill any of its obligations creates a real condition of unwillingness to meet with them and not only representatives of Russia, but also Germany-France. Because Ukrainian indifference to the fulfillment of their obligations is already difficult to cover up with the "love" of Merkel and Macron to Ukraine.

          Almost yes. Failure to fulfill election promises, failure to fulfill Parisian commitments, the adoption of a law on the sale of land, an increase in utility tariffs, the loss of confidence of European and American puppeteers, the betrayal of their "parent" and sponsor - bloody Beni, as a result of which the flight of officials from ministries and administrations, a drop in ratings already by 20%, not counting the smaller blunders in politics and economics. "Hence the lice."

        A meeting for the sake of a meeting, to raise Zelensky's rating is not needed for nothing! By the way, “to the question of the birds!” U-Kroinsky Naftogaz wants to put forward a train of claims for billions of dollars to Gazprom again! Freebie for their taste, milk Russia! It was necessary not to pay anything to Gazprom and run the pipeline itself past Denmark, and not conclude a new, shameful contract with the blackmailers for another long 5 years.

          One of the exchanges provided for in the clause of the Minsk agreements. By the way, from the Ukrainian side, for the most part, they did not change prisoners from the LPNR at all, but Ukrainian political prisoners. Simply, previously captured hostages, as they cynically put it "exchange fund".

      Given that Priestayko’s entire track record is somehow related to cooperation with Canada, the United States and NATO, there is every reason to believe that he will work out the ideas of the above entities. Then his statements on the implementation of the Minsk agreements, on the upcoming meeting, become clear. The US does not seek to resolve the situation in the Donbass. Their main goal is the maximum disintegration of Ukraine and Russia. In parallel, the United States is doing everything possible to destroy the economic potential of Ukraine, so that in the future it would not be of interest to Russia, and in the case of the settlement of political processes would become a stone on the neck of the Russian economy. And yes, they, these US actions, are quite successful in this direction. And according to the Norman format - this is solid masturbation. Time will be killed, there will be no use for the peace process. Zelensky is not a person who could resist the American line prescribed for Ukraine.

      What's the point? You signed the Shtanmayer formula last time - you were FORCED to sign it at the end. And the last time there was a meeting - only on your initiative, you wept it out since August. as a result, you were bent over and forced to sign commitments. in which the first point - the termination of the database and the withdrawal of troops - you did nothing.

      “The entire European Union is in the past the Hitlerite coalition or those who bowed before it. There was not a single country opposed to Hitler. France was also defeated, and its factories worked for Germany.

      That's who is judging us right now. And they tell us when it was necessary to free Auschwitz, they tell us about equal responsibility - those who attacked us, who were with Hitler.

      And the fact that yesterday Zelensky, a man born in the Soviet Union, declared equal responsibility, is a monstrous sacrilege. I do not think that now he will be a handshake for anyone who cherishes the memory of the Great Victory. "
