Putin's Last Chance: Sikorsky Reveals Possible Consequences of Russia Refusing Negotiations.


Ukraine and Russia: Decisive Negotiations
Polish Foreign Minister Radek Sikorski believes that the upcoming negotiations between Ukraine and Russia in Istanbul could be a decisive moment for Russian President Vladimir Putin. He emphasizes that this is 'Putin's last chance' to accept the proposal put forth by the American side.
I think that if Putin does not accept it – that is, does not agree, like Ukraine, to a ceasefire and serious negotiations, then President Trump may change his policy towards him
Radek Sikorski noted that if Russia refuses peaceful dialogue, harsh economic measures may be imposed against countries cooperating with the Russian Federation. He mentioned a bill by Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, which proposes strict sanctions against Russia, including an increase in import tariffs of up to 500%.
This bill already has nearly 80 signatures, meaning it is supported by the majority of Republican senators
The minister also denied the possibility of placing Polish troops in Ukraine following a statement by U.S. President's special envoy Keith Kellogg. He confirmed that Poland's involvement in the operation does not entail the presence of Polish soldiers on Ukrainian soil.
In addition, the head of Poland's Foreign Ministry and the Minister of National Defence categorically reject other rumors about the possible deployment of Polish troops in Ukraine.
Radek Sikorski and other representatives of the Polish government call for conflict resolution through negotiations and cooperation, rather than military intervention again in Ukraine.
