American edition: Washington should make it clear to Moscow that it does not support Ukraine's attempts to return Crimea

According to The American Conservative, a deal to free the export of grain from Ukraine through the Black Sea at the end of the month may again be in jeopardy if they do not want to renew it.

However, the newspaper notes, there is a way to save this deal. To do this, the US authorities must put pressure on Kyiv so that it does not strike at the territory of Crimea. In addition, Washington should make it clear to Moscow that it does not support Ukraine's attempts to return the peninsula.

The American Conservative calls the Black Sea grain deal a rare example of effective cooperation between Russia and Ukraine, which allows to stabilize the international situation in the food market.

Recall that at the end of October, Russia had already announced its withdrawal from the deal in response to the attack of the Ukrainian drones to the largest city of Crimea Sevastopol. And although the deal was renewed in early November, it is not a fact that after its expiration, Russia will want to renew it.

If the grain export agreements cannot be extended, this will provoke a global increase in food prices, writes The American Conservative.

The publication notes that if Washington did not make efforts to achieve grain agreements, providing it to the UN and Turkey, then it needs to at least do something to save the deal.

Crimea is Russia, all other fabrications are nonsense and chatter

Ukraine is the outskirts of Russia.

Washington has nowhere to go with its democracy

[Real Pilot]

Somehow the "former partners" have already overslept the moment! Crimea is out of the question now...

Now, if the entire left bank of the Dnieper agrees to recognize, and also convince the renewed government of neutral Ukraine to retreat and agree to such conditions, then this is already a normal initial negotiating position. In general, even a compromise ... But this is now! For when and if the Russian army will stand near Lviv, then the Ukrainian negotiating train will leave completely.

[I dare to_notice_]

These are not attempts by Ukraine.
This is another attempt by Britain.

[seregatara1969]

Make clear? Hint? And faith does not allow you to openly declare your position?

[Uprun]

Crimea has already passed the stage, Russia has expanded a little in 2022, so bargaining only for Crimea is not appropriate here... Whether the deal continues or not, the real picture of unlocking the supply of our agricultural products and fertilizers to world markets will show, not to paper, but in fact ... Something like this .....

[Alexander Salenko]

Bargaining for the Donbass is by and large inappropriate, it has not been Ukrainian for a long time in fact.

[Alexander 3]

Ukraine, too, no longer belongs to itself, it belongs to all the countries around it. Most of all, it belongs to the United States.

[ZIF122]

And why should they unblock our supplies if we continue to fulfill the grain deal anyway! And they will extend this deal further, Turkey will put pressure on us and ours will again fall for empty promises! How many times this has already been done!

[Alexander_Schlidt]

Let them try to convince. But will we believe them? Personally, I wouldn't

[Mouse]

Washington should make it clear to Moscow that it does not support Ukraine's attempts to return the peninsula

you can say a lot ... do something else .... Crimea has floated out from under the noses of the states, they still drool over it ...

American edition: Washington should make it clear to Moscow that it does not support Ukraine's attempts to return Crimea

. The question is ... and who and when can decide on minke whales right now ???

[Cananecat]

Washington must give...

To give or not to give? That is the question....
So what will they give? Do they recognize Crimea as Russian?
Yes, not in life ... the next words in which you can not believe.

[gromit]

Erdogan has already voiced a proposal to extend the deal for a year.
Turkey has clearly demonstrated that Russia's participation in the deal is desirable, but not mandatory. So the deal will be extended.
It is enough to look at the size of the Turkish fleet in the World Cup and the fact that our TF warships set off back, waiting in vain for six months for Turkish permission to pass through the straits.

Why these talks about negotiations are molded out of place and out of place in every second article is also understandable.

[ZIF122]

Well, at the start of hostilities, Turkey banned the passage in the straits to all warships of non-Black Sea states! And ships assigned to the local Black Sea Fleet can pass them. And the ships of the Pacific Fleet served in the eastern Mediterranean for more than six months!

[gromit]

Varyag and Admiral Tributs from February 2, 22 stood waiting for permission.
If this is called "to serve in the eastern Mediterranean", then so be it.
I just want to remind you that they set off on this long trip as early as 29.12.21/105/XNUMX and their goal was to visit the Republic of the Seychelles, in honor of the XNUMXth anniversary of the Varyag's visit to the port of Victoria.
Lost? I don't think.

This is a channel for the legal supply of weapons and fuel for Kiev. Grain is just a cover.

[Laundryman]

Recall that at the end of October, Russia already announced its withdrawal from the deal in response to the attack of Ukrainian drones on the largest city of Crimea, Sevastopol. And although the deal was renewed in early November, it is not a fact that after its expiration, Russia will want to renew it.

Russia withdrew from the deal, Turkey shrugged and continued to export grain. Therefore, I do not see any threat to grain if Russia does not want to renew the deal.
The deal is more needed by Russia itself, in order to control "whether bulk carriers are carrying anything superfluous to Odessa."

[rotmistr60]

Washington should make it clear to Moscow that it does not support Ukraine's efforts to reclaim the peninsula.

Washington is so worried about the "grain deal" (grain for itself, weapons for Ukraine) that it is even ready to make it clear that it considers Crimea to be Russian? Even without hints from Washington, Crimea will remain Russian and remain so.

[APASUS]

However, the newspaper notes, there is a way to save this deal. To do this, the US authorities must put pressure on Kyiv so that it does not strike at the territory of Crimea. In addition, Washington should make it clear to Moscow that it does not support Ukraine's attempts to return the peninsula.

Such an interesting conclusion. If the United States needs it, one call to Kuev is enough for Zeliboba to run to Moscow to sign peace treaties, in any quantity. Why publish these guesses?

[Andobor]

What about new territories? - Russia will be obliged to use nuclear weapons to free them.

[Laundryman]

And what then to release? radioactive desert?

The threat of use over those territories is not worth it.

[gsev]

Quote from Lavander

And what then to release? radioactive desert?

It is necessary to hit Lvov, Rovno, Chernivtsi, Ivan-Frankivsk, Vinnytsia with nuclear weapons if Putin does not want the fate of Gaddafi for himself .. In any case, the United States does not lose anything from the continuation of the war. They can expect that after the delivery of ballistic missiles, F-22s, F-35s and gunships, Ukrainians will be able to arrange carpet bombing of Moscow.

For the sake of power, Putin will have to give up Melitopol and Mariupol.

For the sake of power, Putin will have to give up Melitopol and Mariupol.

Defeat in the war will be the end of Putin and all his entourage. After the defeat, Saddam and Gaddafi died. Ho Chi Minh, Kim Il Sung and Mao fought in a more desperate situation, won and survived. The goal of all NATO actions is the overthrow of Putin and the colonization of Russia as under Yeltsin with the help of their puppets like Yavlinsky, Khodorkovsky and Navalny, followed by complete plunder. Walesa has already voiced the desire of the West to destroy 2/3 of the population of Russia, that is, all males and part of the females (or he wants to cut out all Russians). Only a nuclear strike on Ukraine should be massive. At least 50 rounds of ammunition in all major cities west of the Dnieper.

[Ulan.1812]

But we don’t care what Washington “should make us understand” there?
We decide what we need to understand without anyone's prompting.
Let their lackeys point.
They need to understand that the Crimea, the DPR and the LPR and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions are parts of Russia, which is enshrined in our Constitution and this is not subject to discussion and change.
Is it just the inclusion in Russia, new Russian regions.
Nikolaev, Odessa, Kharkov, etc.

The "grain deal" is kind of... a disgrace. She spent the Russians on the chaff. The Russians have shown that they can be ignored. Especially at sea.

[Andobor]

Quote: iouris

"Grain Deal"

- this is control over the export of Ukrainian grain, controlling it, Russia seized control of the entire world grain market, which is why the "partners" are so worried, but any attempt to jump off the strict control of Russia leads to the termination of Ukrainian export.

[gsev]

Quote: Andobor

Russia can only control the grain in its elevators. Ukrainian maritime drones are capable of sinking any of our ships in the Black Sea, just as oil pipelines in the Baltic were blown up. The Trans-Siberian is not capable of moving grain volumes to Central Asia and North Korea. In principle, the way remains through Iran. But this transport corridor did not begin to be equipped. The sale of grain through Turkey is a direct replacement for Russian influence on Turkish influence in Western Asia and North Africa. About 8 years ago, the Russian elite arrogantly rejected the Chinese proposal to create a transport corridor through Siberia and the Far East to the PRC and the DPRK and imposed sanctions against the DPRK. And you could spend 8 billion dollars a year on this in 15 years, reducing investment in bonds in the West. Then the indemnity donated by the United States would have decreased by $120 billion and we would have had the infrastructure for trade with China and North Korea.

Zelensky every time he comes out, I have the feeling that he is no longer stoned, but in a state of some kind of agony ... Such nonsense is, you can go nuts.

[solar]

a deal on the unhindered export of grain from Ukraine through the Black Sea at the end of the month may again be under threat if they do not want to extend it

Under what threat? Will they start shooting at Turkish ships? Or even more so against Turkish ships, if they escort ships with grain (however, I don’t think it will come to that). Erdogan has already made it clear that the grain agreement will be implemented without Russian participation. To refuse it now for the Kremlin is to lose face, the Turks will still carry it.
