Dmitri Polyanskiy, the First Deputy Permanent Representative of
the Russian Federation to the United Nations, discusses diplomacy
with the US. Polyanskiy argues that Russia is prepared to
continue its military operation until its objectives are achieved
through either military means or diplomacy. The US has accepted
the key conditions in a peace agreement that must include
restoring Ukraine’s neutrality, accepting territorial
concessions, and no US security guarantees. However, a ceasefire
without a political settlement would risk merely becoming an
opportunity for the US and Europeans to rearm Ukraine.
