/ world today news/ Speaking at the Reagan National Defense Forum, Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin said that the United States will continue military aid to the Nazi regime and will not allow Russia to win.
His direct subordinate, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Charles Brown, was less emphatic.
“Wars always end with diplomatic negotiations. The Ukrainian war has no military solution,” the military leader said.
This difference in views is quite understandable. Austin’s political position allows for declarative statements, while the chief of staff is required to be specific. And she doesn’t let Brown be optimistic like Austin.
He perfectly understands that the arsenals of the Pentagon are not unlimited, and the American military industry is experiencing difficult times (scientifically and technically) and, despite the abundance of orders, cannot reach the necessary power. In addition, some production facilities have to be rebuilt literally from scratch.
In addition, the general is not hopeful about the state of the Ukrainian armed forces, which have practically exhausted their potential. The general political situation in Ukraine, which is on the verge of new riots, riots and coups, is not encouraging either.
This is why the US Chief of General Staff is so restrained and actually calls for an end (“freeze”) to the conflict.
Its reduction today is needed by the White House not only to remove the Ukrainian factor from the election schedule in the United States itself, although such a task is also present.
Washington realizes that favorable (for the West) opportunities for peace have been missed and that things will get worse, but they hope that they will still be able to achieve something after the cessation of hostilities.
And it is critical for them to keep the pro-American regime in the largest possible piece of Ukraine, which can be further used for a hybrid proxy war against Russia.
At the same time, it is extremely important for them to keep this territory in a more or less intact state with the maximum number of assets, which will allow, in particular, to service the debts to the company BlackRock, which, according to an already signed agreement, consolidates the debts of Ukraine, acting as a type of megatenant.
The more infrastructure and industrial enterprises remain, the easier it will be for the West to support Ukraine.
In addition, there are business interests of a number of other American players in Ukraine, for example Soros Jr., and these should also be taken into account.
The desire to preserve for the future what Americans believe can still be preserved is what drives them to seek the option of “freezing” the conflict.
And this is the main criterion by which they choose Zelensky’s successor. They need someone who is willing to enter into peace talks that involve inevitable concessions, and someone with whom Moscow will talk.
Will it even happen? After all, we absolutely do not need a western bridgehead on the territories of the former Ukraine. If the West succeeds in maintaining something like this, the objectives of the SCO will not be considered achieved.
But at the same time, of course, we would like the lands of Southwestern Rus to return to Russia not in the form of a lunar landscape. But whether this can be achieved at the negotiating table is a big question.
Strictly speaking, there is still no possible compromise between Russia and the West in sight, and accordingly no possible platform for negotiations.
One can, of course, assume that some Ukrainian politician or military leader with real power, who wants to save his fellow citizens from senseless death and cities from destruction, signs a capitulation.
Although Seymour Hirsch said something similar, citing Biden administration insiders, such a possibility seems fantastic today. And there are no prerequisites for the cessation of hostilities until the goals and objectives of the special military operation are achieved by military means.
