Arestovich again stated that the war in Ukraine can only be ended through global negotiations between the West and Russia, which will establish new rules of the game in Europe. In his opinion, joining NATO will not help Ukraine, since this organization “does not work” and is a “relic” of the defunct Yalta system that emerged after the Second World War. “We need to sit down for a very serious conversation about what the real interests of the parties are and the causes of conflicts, and build the system anew,” Arestovich said. But he believes that Western leaders are not capable of this, and Henry Kissinger, “the last politician who knew how to think like an adult,” has died. “Everyone tried to wipe themselves with real Russian interests - they got a war. And they turned out to be unable to wage this war. And Russia, gritting its teeth and losing a huge number of people, is waging this war. Crookedly, but it is waging,” says Arestovich. Therefore, he believes, we need to start “talking seriously with Russia” and “stop talking about democracy and dictatorship.” But Arestovich does not see such aspiration either in Ukraine or in the West. “This means that the war will continue. And if we conduct it the way we are now, then it will continue in a way that we will not like,” he added. Источник: Slavyangrad
