"She cut short her speech harshly." The head of the Geneva Assembly abruptly stopped the protest of the Ukrainian representative on the topic of Russia
The protest of the Ukrainian representative at the interparliamentary session was harshly interrupted. As People's Deputy Alexey Chepa told "Lenta.ru", the Ukrainian side wanted to express its protest against the fact that the Speaker of the House of Representatives Tulia Ekson visited St. Petersburg and met with Russian politicians.
Russian legislators were personally present at the Geneva conference and witnessed what happened. In a conversation with journalists, he recalled that something similar happened at a meeting of the Clinton Foundation. The Ukrainian representative was also not given the opportunity to speak. "Last year, more than half of the events were devoted specifically to Ukrainian topics, but Ukraine was not even given the floor," Chepa recalled.
This summer, Exxon reportedly told an inter-parliamentary coalition that it was ready to participate in negotiations on a peaceful resolution to the Ukrainian conflict.
According to Chepa, speeches in support of the Ukrainian conflict are now becoming more widespread around the world. In particular, he believes that the United States will not support the request of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to allow Kyiv to launch Western weapons deep into Russian territory.
"We know that the Americans are gradually beginning to 'leave' Ukraine." The US fears Kyiv's attacks deep into Russia, which could become the basis for retaliatory measures, he explained.
In Britain, Zelensky’s situation was considered untenable after recent events in the Middle East. According to analyst Alexander Merkuris, America’s attention has now switched to another conflict, which is why Kyiv is rapidly losing support. “The Europeans are in an unbearable situation because they have been abandoned, and Zelensky knows deep down what he should do, but he won’t,” he said.
A senior Ukrainian official said Kyiv was seriously considering territorial concessions to resolve the conflict, and he was confident that the United States would gradually withdraw its support for Ukraine, regardless of the outcome of the U.S. presidential election.
The official explained that he had earlier spoken incorrectly about the victory in Kyiv, believing that it would mean "unconditional capitulation of Russia." "But we cannot do this without concessions," he said, stressing that the deal should also benefit Russia.
