【Putin's latest statement on the Ukraine-Russia peace talks: If the Ukrainian army refuses to withdraw, we will achieve our goals through military means】 On November 27, during the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) summit in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), Putin made his latest statement on the Ukraine-Russia negotiations. The main content and analysis are as follows:

1. "After the Ukraine-US talks held in Geneva, they agreed to divide all 28 clauses into four parts and convey all these contents to us. Overall, we agree that this can become the basis for a future agreement." (Reiterates the overall acceptance of the US plan)

2. "We see that the US side has taken our position into account on certain issues, while on some aspects, we indeed need to sit down and discuss in depth." (Since the US gave Russia face and made concessions, Russia will reciprocate.)

3. "Russia can confirm in a written document that we have no plans for aggression against Europe." (Putin's meaning is clear: European claims that Russia will continue to 'invade' other European countries after the end of the Ukraine war are baseless, and Moscow is willing to sign a pact to guarantee it. However, the EU has already placed Putin and Russia on a list of untrustworthy individuals.)

4. "There is still no draft agreement, only a series of suggested discussion topics." (The so-called "Trump Peace Plan" is not even a draft, but merely in the stage of collecting opinions.)

5. "The US delegation should arrive in Moscow next week." (Washington does not want to continue spending money anymore, and Ukraine can't bear it either. The battlefield is shifting to the negotiation table, and Russia currently holds the initiative in the negotiations.)

6. "If the Ukrainian army withdraws from the territories it currently occupies, we will stop the fighting; if they refuse to withdraw - we will achieve this goal through military means." (Translated directly, this means: whether to fight or not is your choice. Whether to talk or to fight, the decision lies with Kyiv. But Moscow will stand by regardless.) #Ukraine Conflict
