Beyond Ceasefire: Ukraine’s Former Deputy PM Demands ‘Strategic Defeat’ for Russia to Safeguard European Order
As the full-scale invasion of Ukraine marks its fourth year, former Vice Prime Minister Ivanna Klympush asserts that Russia must face a “strategic defeat” to prevent future attacks on Ukraine and the broader European continent. She rejects the notion of Ukrainian concessions, arguing that the focus must be on debilitating Russia's military and economic capacity through sustained international pressure and aid, thereby preserving the post-WWII international order and allowing Ukraine to rebuild.
