Ukraine becoming ‘more flexible’ as endgame approaches – Bloomberg --[Reported by Umva mag]

Zelensky’s public demands for ending the conflict with Russia do not reflect discussions behind the scenes, the agency has said

Kiev’s allies in the West believe that Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky may be getting ready to take “a more flexible approach” to ending the fighting with Russia through diplomatic means, Bloomberg has reported.

In his public statements, Zelensky insists that any talks with Moscow can begin only after the complete withdrawal of Russian forces from all territories Kiev claims as its own. Earlier this week, he reiterated that “reliable peace and security” must be achieved “without any bargaining over sovereignty or trading territories.”

However, in an article on Tuesday, the agency cited sources in NATO as saying Ukrainian officials have signaled that “they are prepared to recognize that an endgame should come into play” in the conflict with Russia.

The unnamed officials from the US-led military bloc did not specify what concessions Kiev might be willing to make to end the fighting, Bloomberg stressed.

“The shift in sentiment” in the Ukrainian capital was to be put to the test at a meeting of Kiev’s Western backers in Germany on Saturday. However, US President Joe Biden postponed the gathering at Ramstein Air Base to focus on the government’s response to Hurricane Milton, the agency reported.
