Ukrainian President Zelensky, who was pushed back in the Battle of Bahamut, said "mediation with China", suggesting that Ukrainian domestic and international pressure to negotiate an end to the war had begun.
Associated Press Executive Vice President and Editor-in-Chief Julie Fasse, who had an exclusive interview with President Zelensky on the 28th, said, "Zelensky's comments suggest that losing the seven-month Battle of Bahamut, the longest war to date, is more costly than tactical defeat. “He predicted that the pressure from the defeat at Bahmut would come quickly, both internationally and domestically,” he reported.
Zelensky told the Associated Press that losing the Battle of Bahamut "would tire my society" and "our society would force me to compromise with them", anticipating domestic and foreign pressure to negotiate an end to the war.
In an exclusive interview with the Associated Press, Zelensky said that if Bahmut fell to the Russians, then President Vladimir Putin would 'sell this victory to the West, China and Iran'. ' has increased.
Zelensky discussed the situation with top military and intelligence officials a week ago on the 21st as the situation in Bakhmut became intense, and “all agreed on the need to maintain and defend the city,” the President’s Office released the results, saying that there was a “crack” inside Ukraine. ' suggested
The Associated Press interview said Zelensky warned that if the country does not win a draw in key eastern cities, Russia may begin to build international support for a deal that could require Ukraine to compromise unacceptably. He said he had invited a Chinese leader who had an alliance with him to visit,” expressing “mediation to China.”
Zelensky went on to say, "I am concerned that the war could be affected by the shift in political power in Washington. The United States really understands that we will not win if they stop helping us." Elections and political fluctuations were directly linked to the war in Ukraine.
“In an interview, Zelensky invited Chinese President Xi Jinping, a well-known and strategically important leader, to Ukraine, who did not travel,” Zelensky said in an interview. “We are ready to see him here. I want to talk to him. I had contact with him before full-scale war, but all this year, in more than a year, I haven't had that happen," he told The Associated Press.
Zelensky went on to comment on Xi Jinping's visit to Russia, saying, "Putin's move, referring to the lack of assurances he received from China, said, "What does that mean? It means that the visit is not good for Russia." I guess it was rejected.
“China, which has been economically aligned and politically sympathetic towards Russia for decades, has provided Putin with diplomatic cover by taking an official stance of neutrality in the war in Ukraine,” the Associated Press said. Contrary to the prospect of supplying Moscow with the weapons and ammunition needed to replenish its stockpiles, it ended without any announcement. A few days later, Putin announced that he would deploy tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus, which neighbors Russia and pushes the Kremlin's nuclear stockpile closer to NATO territory.”
