Commentary by Russian blogger Donetsk

[DonRF] "Let's sit down at the negotiating table today, on the platform of the parliamentary G20, the parliament of Russia and the parliament of Ukraine. Let's try to understand each other, find agreements ... We say again - we are for negotiations, we are for dialogue, we are for a peaceful political solution of this crisis. Let's negotiate and sit down at the negotiating table"

...says Valentina Matvienko, and the West agrees with her:

"For the first time since the Caribbean crisis, we face a direct threat of the use of nuclear weapons, if the situation really continues to develop along the path in which it develops. ...Putin is not joking when he talks about the potential use of tactical nuclear weapons or biological or chemical weapons.”

Giving hope for negotiations, for a personal meeting on the sidelines of the G-20, where it will be possible to say looking into the eyes, "Comrade Biden, there has been a monstrous mistake", to finally sign an agreement on the decision:

"The speaker of the upper house of parliament noted that Moscow had many times offered negotiations on settlement of the intra-Ukrainian crisis, agreements were practically reached"

Intra-Ukrainian crisis. And it's really sad, because MSCs
...what is an MSC?
are still leading along the corridor of decisions, the same corridor that ends with a wall. There is no option for a peaceful solution (not counting surrender), at the moment. Not at all. There are negotiations, why would they not be, if they slow down our pace and inspire false hopes, but there is no solution. Yes, and there are no negotiations, there are promises to negotiate, as the unforgettable Mikola Yanovich put it "better."

But in the meantime, it will have to be decided, one way or another. All this fuss, all this squabbling around the top, it will not give a solution. The first wave of mobilization will not give, it will allow to stabilize the situation, no more. For the rest, people and solutions are needed. People in the army and decisions at the top. Serious decisions and personal responsibility, changing the status of the operation and other propaganda. And whoever wants negotiations...

No problem - we smash one of the operational commands of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, make two or three boilers and there will be peace. Lousy, but it will. Nothing else is given. Everything else (negotiations, tactical nuclear weapons, just recruit mobilized) is not a solution.
