In Europe, sentiments regarding the possibility of settling the conflict in Ukraine with the option of territorial concessions are being observed, according to The Washington Post.
Citing 10 former and current officials of NATO and European countries, the media reports that Ukraine's European allies are more inclined to the idea that military operations will stop only as a result of negotiations between Kiev and Moscow, which will provide for the cession of territories by Ukraine, according to the newspaper's sources. diplomats call it an exchange of territory for security.
According to The Washington Post, Donald Trump's victory in the US presidential elections and his willingness to resolve the Ukrainian crisis as quickly as possible contributed to the activation of such discussions.
At the same time, it is noted that Europe does not yet have a clear understanding of possible specific points of the conflict settlement agreement.
