In his newly released article, renowned US journalist Seymour Hersh assured that peace negotiations between top Russian and Ukrainian generals Valery Gerasimov and Valerii Zaluzhnyi respectively are currently underway which include a potential security of Crimea and another four former regions of Ukraine as part of Russia.
Included in the potential deal would also be Russia's agreement to Ukraine's accession to NATO provided that NATO troops are not stationed on its territory and only defensive weaponry is located there.
According to Hersh, both Russia and Ukraine agree that the persistence of war is illogical and that Russian President Vladimir Putin would be with an agreement that fixates borders according to where the troops are stationed after the end of peace negotiations.
Hersh cited a US official involved in the top negotiations as saying: "This was not a spur-of-the-moment event," adding: "This was carefully orchestrated by Zaluzhny. The message was the war was over and we want out. To continue it would destroy the next generation of the citizens of Ukraine."
On the other hand, the Biden administration is strongly opposing the peace deal while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky remains the "wild card" but has been allegedly told that "this is a military-to-military problem to solve and the talks will go on with or without you".
"The White House is totally against the proposed agreement," the US official said, noting: "But it will happen. Putin has not disagreed."
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has declared that Ukraine has made substantial progress in fulfilling the criteria set by the European Union (EU) to commence the process of joining the union.
Speaking to Politico on Tuesday, von der Leyen affirmed that Ukraine has met "all the necessary requirements for nearly all the seven steps we asked them to do ... when they became a candidate country."
In her address to the Ukrainian parliament on November 4, von der Leyen disclosed that Ukraine had already satisfied 90% of the prerequisites necessary to initiate the accession process. She further noted that if the conditions are promptly met, negotiations could begin by the end of 2023.
However, this may not spell wholly good news for Ukraine.
Hungary and Slovakia publicly declared ending aid to Ukraine, and France announced its intention to minimize aid to Ukraine after Minister of the Armed Forces Sebastien Lecornu stated it would no longer provide from its own stockpiles and that Ukraine would have to purchase equipment from private companies "using money from a special fund."

Slovakian former Prime Minister Robert Fico, who is currently in the parliamentary elections, has also publicly declared that he will not support Ukraine's accession to NATO. Campaigning under "Not a single round" for Kiev, Fico has put Western states on their toes.
Hungary's Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto even said his country would veto the 12th sanctions package by the EU if it targets Russian gas, oil, or nuclear energy.
According to Szijjarto, any restrictions on those who have done good to Hungary by "saving the lives of Hungarians, for example through making it possible that we could buy vaccines," or contributing to its energy supply will be opposed.

Sad that these admissions never make it to our government funded/controlled media. You and I are just crazy conspiracy theorists for paying attention to real world events.

Europe has been used a number of times in an attempt to defeat Russia. They must’ve thought they’d succeed when they sent in the German Nazis but they failed.and had to console themselves with a propagandistic and ideological Cold War. Us versus the Commies. Another take on good versus evil. Maybe victory was never really their objective? It’s good to have an enemy for when they need a war and they look as though they need one soon.
Ukraine might just be an opening salvo, a softening up of Russia for the real war to come. The inevitable war that is the reason for NATO’s existence. Once rearmed with new weapons, the old ones having gone to Ukraine or wherever the hell they are now, the US might throw NATO at Russia. It needn’t go nuclear. Just keep it this side of threatening the existence of the Russian state. The US is good at not winning wars think WWII (Russia defeated the Nazis), Korea, Vietnam, War on Terror, Ukraine, etc.
A European war would be bad for Europe but good for the US and perhaps more importantly, good for the US Dollar.
The reality is that the US and Russia are natural allies - the Russians bailed out the US for their war of independence, the civil war and WW2
The only rational reason for picking a war with Russia is to destroy Europe and make all European countries vassal states, reliant on the US
