How to achieve long-lasting peace in Ukraine?
Long-lasting peace in Ukraine and in the world is possible only if the following four conditions are met:
1. Territory. All territories along the 1991 border should be returned to Ukraine. If not, it's only a matter of time before the new war breaks up again in the future.Â
2. Security guarantees. Ukraine should be included in NATO or be given similar concrete security guarantees. If not, it's only a matter of time before the war flares up again.
3. Punishment. Those responsible for the “special military operation” must be punished. And not only the master of the Kremlin, but all who was involved. If not, it's only a matter of time until other criminals see that crimes are not punished and they can do whatever they want.
4. Reparations. Full compensation for material, human, and other losses. If not, it’s only a matter of time until both the Kremlin czars and their international counterparts attack their neighbors.
It is cheaper and more reliable to ensure that these 4 conditions are fulfilled now, than to have multiple wars emerge in the years to come.
