Russia’s Condemnation and Solutions Desert

03 Mar

The UN General Assembly condemned the invasion of Ukraine by Russia by 141 votes in favor (photo) and 5 against (Belarus, North Korea, Eritrea and Syria, in addition to itself), but the list of abstentions is long (35 countries) and include Russia’s traditional allies: China, Venezuela and Cuba.

Brazil voted in favor in contradiction to the position at the OAS and the president’s recent visit.

In the speech of the Chancellor of Russia at the UN 100 countries withdrew from the room in boycotting his speech, in the end the Russian Chancellor said that the economic sanctions of the West are the only possible thing threatening with nuclear weapons any other solution of military support.

Today begins the second round of negotiations between Ukraine and Russia in a desert of solutions Ukraine’s non-participation in NATO may be negotiable, but Ukraine has already asked to join the European Union, and Volodymyr Zelensky’s speech was given a standing ovation by the assembly of the EU that discussed including it, but the process is long and perhaps due to the negotiation it is not the time.

A new round of negotiations for peace begins today, an immediate ceasefire must be considered, the desert of ideas is wide, at the moment each country presented only its demands, even China was willing to intermediate, but the two countries continue a direct dialogue.

Crimea is already an annexed territory, handing over the two regions of Donetsk and Luhansk to Ukraine means ceding part of its territory, a unilateral disarmament of Ukraine can be considered if the NATO issue is negotiable by the Russians.

A regional peace that does not raise a new iron curtain seems distant, Putin is weakened within Russia due to sanctions, but the impasse continues, at the world level follows a bipolarization, although Russia diplomatically leaves the UN Assembly very fragile.

It is necessary to rethink world peace, the conflict showed the fragility of the nuclear balance, territorial issues such as Taiwan and part of the former Soviet republics remain unbalanced, and many abstentions hide a veiled support for Russia and its warmongering, from which many countries do not escape of NATO without ceasing to include the United States.

There is a desert of solutions that do not involve the armed solution and the war industry grows.
