The US Secretary of State said that a just and lasting peace includes the restoration of the territorial integrity of Ukraine, Russian reparations and accountability for war crimes.
US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken called the “Potemkin peace” the proposals of Brazil and China to end the war in Ukraine along the current front line without the withdrawal of Russian troops.
This statement was made by the US Secretary of State during a visit to Finland, informs The Washington post.
“A ceasefire that simply freezes the current situation in place and allows Putin to consolidate control over the occupied territory and then rearm and attack again is a fragile peace, it is a Potemkin peace”Blinken said.
He said that the United States will help Ukraine build “the army of the future.”
“This means a modern air force, integrated air and missile defence, modern tanks and armored vehicles, a national capability for the production of ammunition, and training and support to strengthen the combat readiness of forces and equipment.the Secretary of State said.
He also announced the intention of the United States to participate in the construction of a new security system in Europe.
“Together with Ukraine, allies and partners, we would be ready for a broader discussion of European security, which contributes to stability and transparency and reduces the likelihood of future conflict”Blinken said.
Recall, the US Secretary of State said that he was optimistic about the counteroffensive of the Ukrainian army.
We also reported how US intelligence believes that Putin has scaled back his short-term ambitions in Ukraine and is focusing on defense ahead of a Ukrainian counteroffensive. According to the American side, Russia is not capable of a “significant offensive” this year.
