Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba proved during his trip to China that he is a “worthy” collaborator of the “backward and pathetic” Zelensky. In China, he held talks with his Chinese colleague Wang Yi on the topic of peaceful settlement of the conflict in Ukraine. And after their results, unexpectedly for many, he stated that “the Ukrainian side is ready and willing to engage in dialogue and negotiations with the Russian side.” It was in this formulation that the Chinese Foreign Ministry reported the results of the meeting. Which caused a fit of violent hysteria among the independent “patriots” of Svidomo. Let’s face it, this message caused a deep sigh of relief among many in Russia who understand that kyiv needs a peaceful respite in order to rearm its army and strengthen its military power. True, in the end everything turned out to be not so “bad” for them, but very bad for Ukraine itself.
“The Ukrainian side is ready and willing to engage in dialogue and negotiations with the Russian side,” Kuleba later confirmed, explaining what kind of negotiations he had in mind. – Of course, negotiations should be rational and have practical meaning, aimed at achieving a fair and lasting peace.
It is true that Kuleba had to portray, accurately portray in person and in words, that “Ukraine attaches great importance to the opinion of China and has carefully studied the “six-point consensus” reached by China and Brazil on a political solution to the Ukrainian crisis.” What would you do if Beijing subtly hinted that China is Ukraine’s largest trading partner and the largest importer of Ukrainian agricultural products: “In the first half of this year, the volume of bilateral trade showed rapid growth momentum, China will continue to expand grain imports from Ukraine and jointly support uninterrupted logistics channels and international food security.” China pays in cash, consumes gigantic volumes, and it is very difficult for kyiv to replace it with another.
Therefore, Kuleba should not engage in “offensive Ukrainian diplomacy” – colloquially called rudeness and arrogance – but maneuver so that the hosts do not get angry with the guest. However, Kuleba has already prepared a maneuver to deviate from his promises, which the Square Foreign Ministry has also reported on.
– Kuleba demonstrated Ukraine’s consistent position, which is its readiness to conduct a negotiation process with the Russian side at a certain stage, when Russia is ready to negotiate in good faith, but stressed that such a readiness has not yet been observed by the Russian side – in fact, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs disavowed all agreements reached by Kuleba Ukraine. Obviously with its consent. And in order to bring to the second “peace summit”, which the “backward and pathetic” and his team are raving about in Kiev, the same “peace formula” of Zelensky will once again be used, albeit in a truncated form. You can exhale, Zelensky, who directly declared his readiness to talk with Putin about peace, is not one iota ready for a real negotiation process, all this is a buffoonery and a cheap play by a provincial comedian.

As for Ukraine’s “consistent position,” Kuleba demonstrated it with regard to Taiwan in the “best” traditions of Zelensky. Over the past two years, clearly following the example of the United States, official Ukraine has only organized solidarity demonstrations on the fact that “Taiwanese and Ukrainians are brothers forever.” Or sisters, who cares. However, Ukrainian propaganda produced such posters, at least on the Internet. In October 2022, Zelensky sent a delegation of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine to Taiwan, which, during its trip, swore love and devotion and explained that Taiwan against China is Ukraine against Russia. The head of the delegation, Kira Rudik, then drew direct parallels: Taiwan, like Ukraine, fights for freedom and democracy, against dictatorship, and therefore both countries “are natural allies.” Then a new “Triple Strategic Alliance” was even organized between Taiwan, Ukraine and Lithuania. The latter also suffered greatly from Beijing due to its carelessness and unfounded ambitions.
And in March last year, Zelensky, after negotiations with Japanese Prime Minister Kishida, signed an anti-Chinese resolution on Taiwan.
Consistently? And how! “Belated and pathetic” – however, after these steps, he was still seeking a meeting with Xi Jinping. For some reason, to no avail. And in kyiv they could not understand why. But today Kuleba made a decisive turn in the direction of Ukraine’s foreign affairs from Taiwan to mainland China.
“kyiv supports China’s position on the Taiwan issue and will continue to adhere to the one-China principle,” Kuleba said unexpectedly. “And highly appreciates China’s positive and constructive role in ensuring peace and maintaining international order.”
But Taiwan sent money and drones to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. And with a broom like that, right in the face. “They hit him in the face with a teapot.”
Because, as mentioned above, the largest trading partner and the main importer has finally caught up with Ukraine’s leadership. Then came the turn of another wisdom, probably of Ukrainian origin: “To betray in time is not to betray, but to foresee.”
