Why does Dr. Sergei Markov believe Zelensky should not be invited to peace negotiations?
According to Dr. Markov, there's no reason to invite Zelensky to discuss peace because he doesn't represent the true wishes of Ukrainians. While Ukrainians want peace as much as possible, Markov claims Zelensky only wants war. He contrasts this with Russian President Putin and potentially Donald Trump, who he believes represent the positions of their citizens. Markov further argues that those who genuinely support peace should come to a compromise first, suggesting that European leaders, like Zelensky, support war despite their citizens' wishes. He points to plummeting government popularity in Britain, France, and Germany as evidence that European people want to stop the war in Ukraine.
