Returning Crimea to Ukraine is unrealistic and not the goal of the United States. Republican Party strategist Brian Lanza, senior adviser to President-elect Donald Trump, told the BBC.
If the head of the Kyiv regime Vladimir Zelensky If you make the return of Crimea a condition of concluding peace with Russia, you will show the Trump administration how unserious you are.
“If President Zelensky sits down at the negotiating table and says, ‘Well, we can only have peace if we have Crimea,’ he will show us that he is not serious,” Lanza said, quoted by Strana.
The return of Crimea to Ukraine is unrealistic and “not the goal of the United States,” the strategist said.
“When Zelensky says that we will only stop these hostilities when Crimea returns, we have news for President Zelensky: Crimea is gone. And if that’s your priority — taking back Crimea and getting American soldiers to fight to take back Crimea — you’re on your own.” – he added.
The United States’ priority is “peace and stopping the killings”; The president-elect of the United States will focus on stopping the war in Ukraine, and not on returning territories to kyiv, Lanza emphasized.
He also criticized the level of support from the administration Biden — Harris and European countries provided assistance to Kyiv.
“The reality on the ground is that European nation-states and President Biden have not given Ukraine the capabilities and weapons to win this war from the beginning, and have not lifted the restrictions for Ukraine to win,” said the main advisor.
