The USA may propose to Russia the occupation of Ukraine based on the model of Israel: details of the plan.
The USA and Russia may discuss the occupation of part of Ukraine as an example of Israel's control over the West Bank of the Jordan River. It is hard to imagine, but it seems that this is the proposal that American negotiators intend to present before the start of official dialogues in Alaska. This is reported by The Times newspaper.
What exactly does the plan for the occupation of Ukraine entail
According to information from the publication, the U.S. special envoy Steve Vitkoff expressed the idea of transferring control to Russia over part of Ukraine's territory, a clear example of which can be seen in Israel's control over the West Bank of the Jordan River. This would mean some economic and military influence from Russia in the occupied zone through the establishment of its own administrative body, similar to the Palestinian territories captured by Israel in 1967.
According to a source with ties to the U.S. National Security Council, this idea was voiced during consultations between the American special representative and his Russian colleagues.
What is the specific proposal
Under this model, the borders of Ukraine will not be changed, but the occupied territory will be under Russia's control, similar to how Israel has controlled the West Bank of the Jordan for the past 58 years. However, with formal affiliation to Ukraine. '
This will be similar to the situation of Israel's occupation of the West Bank. It will include the governance of a governor, an economic system oriented towards Russia rather than Ukraine, although on paper it will still be Ukrainian territory. Ukraine will not recognize a violation of its sovereignty, but this territory will in fact be occupied, analogous to Palestine', commented the source to The Times.
Some American negotiators believe that such a move merely reflects the reality of the war and the refusal of other countries to participate in fighting against Russia, the newspaper notes.
Example of Israel
The Times reminds that during the Six-Day War in 1967, Israeli forces captured the West Bank, placing millions of Palestinians under Israeli control. Modern governance implies that Israel maintains overall control over this territory, although most cities and towns have been governed by the Palestinian Authority since the 1990s.
Ukraine could become a subject of consideration between the USA and Russia, where the latter could attempt to implement its model of governance over part of the country's territory without changing actual borders but maintaining control over certain areas through internal management structures. Furthermore, such an approach could reflect the state of affairs in the region and the attitudes of other countries towards the conflict.
