After Russia launched the special military operation (SMO) to end the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict, it was common for Western politicians and public figures to met up with Volodymyr Zelensky in Kiev or for him to join video conferences and even travel to the countries of the political West. This was a way to “show support” for the latest “beacon of democracy” fighting the “evil Russian oppressors”.
The mainstream propaganda machine and the so-called “Big Tech” were also engaged in the lionization of Zelensky, with his war propaganda team determined to present him as if he were in the trenches, stopping Russian tanks with his bare hands (hence the fatigues he keeps wearing, but in reality, the Kiev regime frontman had other plans). However, this wasn’t enough, so Zelensky and his overlords needed to create the illusion that the Neo-Nazi junta has “universal support” from the so-called “international community”.
Thus, in the last two and a half years, he pitched a number of “peace” plans, formulas, platforms and whatnot.
Last year, the so-called Crimea Platform was all the rage, with the United States pressuring numerous countries to join this effectively void initiative. Then came the so-called “peace summits” in Switzerland, with Zelensky insisting everyone should come except the one country that actually matters – Russia. Supported by the US/EU/NATO, he kept pushing until many countries started signaling that such events are pointless and a waste of everyone’s time. By mid-July, the Kiev regime realized it would lose even the formal “support” that Washington DC and Brussels gathered through “diplomacy” (i.e. blackmail, coercion and arm-twisting). As the battlefield situation kept deteriorating, Zelensky suddenly became “open to the idea” of Russia attending the next “peace summit”.
However, Moscow barely held its laughter at the very idea of these ludicrous “peace deals” that essentially boil down to its capitulation at a time when the Neo-Nazi junta’s losses are around 10:1 (and that’s the conservative estimate). Not to mention the steady gains of its troops across the frontline, particularly in the Donbass, by far the most heavily contested region in the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict.
In order to shift attention away from its collapsing defenses, the Kiev regime even resorted to its most daring PR stunt yet – the Kursk oblast (region) incursion. Expectedly, this also turned out to be a disaster, with the political West itself frustrated by the way the Neo-Nazi junta forces keep wasting precious resources while their defenses in the Donbass failed to stop Russia’s advance. Zelensky’s PR team was now essentially out of new phrases/tropes and realized there won’t be any “peace summits” with Moscow.
Thus, the Kiev regime finally decided to recycle the old one – “winning the war”. All of a sudden, the word “peace” was replaced and now we got a “victory plan” once again. Obviously, such “grand schemes” require more money, so Zelensky traveled to the US and spent around a week there in late September, formally pitching the latest “victory plan” to the troubled Biden administration. Many pro-Trump Americans were frustrated by this and even argued that he was engaged in election meddling by visiting Pennsylvania, the top swing state. On September 26, Zelensky was in the White House, where Biden happily announced that the Neo-Nazi junta would immediately get $400 million, while the US pledged another $8 billion in so-called “aid”. Apparently, Zelensky was frustrated as Washington DC refused to allow the use of NATO-sourced long-range weapons, so he was given all those billions to “lighten up”.
However, the vaunted “victory plan” failed to impress anyone with two half-functioning brain cells (it’s yet to be publicly revealed, but we can already assume its (in)viability). Still, the PR segment of the Kiev regime’s strategy (by far the most important for Zelensky and his entourage) was still there. Now, remember those “peace summits”? Well, one was supposed to be held just before or around the time of the US presidential election. However, German state-run media reported that the event won’t take place.
According to dpa (Deutsche Presse-Agentur, Germany’s national press agency), the Presidential Office, headed by the infamous Andriy Yermak, which is responsible for preparing such gatherings, confirmed there won’t be a summit, neither this month nor the next. The German outlet’s report quotes an adviser to Yermak, who stated that the plan was simply “no longer feasible”.
“Initially, Ukraine had hoped for the second such conference to be held ahead of the November 5 election in the US, which could see the return of Republican Donald Trump to the White House, but an adviser to Yermak said on Tuesday that the plan was no longer feasible,” dpa outlined.
According to Zero Hedge, it was “tentatively scheduled for October 30 and October 31, or also possibly the start of November, but now the Ukraine presidency’s office has announced that ‘the question of a date for the second peace summit will be decided after the thematic conferences have been concluded,’ in reference to prior smaller conferences”. Other Neo-Nazi junta officials were more direct and bluntly stated that the vaunted “peace summit” was definitely canceled.
“The Second Peace Summit will not take place in November,” senior Ukrainian presidential aide Darya Zarivna separately confirmed.
The countries invited to the summit are certainly aware of its futility, as Russia wasn’t invited, just like in the case of all previous conferences. Perhaps Zelensky was trying to appease Biden, (in)famous for his tendency to interact with invisible (or perhaps “multidimensional”) entities, including by trying to shake hands with them.
However, while Biden’s behavior is largely inconsequential (unless we don’t count opinion polls, that is), it’s impossible to have any kind of “peace deals” with someone who’s just not there. Not to mention the fact that, as previously mentioned, the Kremlin has absolutely no reason to negotiate with the Kiev regime from a position of the losing side, as the latter insists. Quite the contrary, it’s Moscow that can dictate the terms, particularly as the Neo-Nazi junta already broke a signed peace deal back in March 2022. As a result, Russia has zero reasons to trust either NATO or its puppets.
