< p > he believes that in any negotiations on the end of the war “ history can become a powerful tool ” In order to pave the way to the world.
are now watching < p >— The use of the past as a guide — This is what we should keep in mind, since negotiations on the cessation of hostilities in Ukraine are becoming more and more serious, despite the fact that the Russian tyrant Vladimir Putin continues to block the progress of unacceptable requirements, — He said.
< p > Stavridis says that he previously conducted diplomatic “ peaceful games ” During the work of the Dean of the School of Law and Diplomacy at the University of Tafts.
< blockquote >< p > — Sometimes one or the other side had a real or imaginary military advantage. In other cases, both sides were exhausted and more than ready for an intermediary. And sometimes, to create conditions for negotiations, a stunning military victory was required.< p >We often used ancient cards to help us imagine problems, and the original cards used to resolve conflicts in the Middle East after the Second World War — Some of them, of course, are still preserved, — It resembles.
< p > now, continues Stavridis, looking at the Russian-Ukrainian war and trying to imagine how it could end, he remembered the two wars of the 20th century: the winter war of 1939-40 between Finland and the Soviet Union and the Korean war in the early 1950s. ~ 60 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > < h2 > lessons for Ukraine and the Russian Federation from the winter war
< p > talking about Finland, the former military recalls that the war also began with a sudden attack, as in Ukraine, but then the Red Army under the command of Joseph Stalin made an unprovided attack on a much smaller neighbor.
62 > < p >The ex-admiral recalls that whenever he came to Helsinki, he visited the Museum of the Winter War, and the Finns themselves were proud of how heroically the enemy troops were abundant.
< blockquote >< p > — But here are bad news. Ultimately, the Finns were forced to give Russia about 11 % of their territory. Huge inequality in manpower and military equipment made it inevitable. The Finns also had to promise that they would remain neutral and would not join any coalitions of the West. It was an unpleasant choice, but he retained Finland as a sovereign state, — It resembles.
< p > Therefore, a lesson from this war is such that when faced with a more powerful enemy, countries affected by aggression, it is necessary to maintain flexibility and be ready to exchange land for the world ”. < p > 62 > 62 > 62 ~ 62 < p >— You may also have to refuse to join defensive unions of your choice. Live to fight further, as Finland did, and perhaps one day you will find yourself in NATO, — writes Stavridis.
< h2 > lessons for Ukraine and the Russian Federation from the Korean war
< p > as for the Korean war, she presented two powerful lessons. The military conflict between North Korea and South Korea, which began in June 1950, was reconciliated by difficult negotiations. < p >— The first lesson from Korea, which is applicable to Ukraine, is the need to create a significant physical zone of deconflik between the warring parties. The demilitarized zone between North and South Korea with a length of more than 250 km for more than 70 years. During this time, she experienced many disputes and intrusions on both sides, but the presence of DMZ helped to maintain a difficult world on the peninsula, — He writes.
~ 60 > however, the size, structure, completion and fundamental organization of the Korean demilitarized zone are “ a good set of precedents and questions for Ukraine ”.
62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > < p > — Should any zone of the deconficte be equipped with Russians and Ukrainians ? or, perhaps, the European Union’s troops on the one hand and the Chinese on the other ? as for the forces of NATO and the parallel Russian group, the organization of the collective security agreement ? or the completely neutral peacekeeping forces of the UN, possibly from South America and Africa countries south of the south of Afric Sahars ? — He posed a number of rhetorical questions.
< p >Another question is how such a demilitarized zone should be organized. On the example of Korean DMZ — This is 4 km in depth, where there are no troops, although both sides built military positions a little further. Despite the presence of the troops of the two Kores, there are also the UN forces, including American soldiers.
< p > — When it comes to Ukraine, you can consider many combinations, but the history of DMZ is very instructive, — Summarizes the ex-Admiral.
< p > however, the second lesson from the Korean War “ not very pleasant ”, continues the stavridis: < blockquote >< p > — War can continue even after the ceasefire is stopped. Two Korea are still technically at war. And often incidents occur, almost always provoked by North Korea, when the military exchange artillery shells, torpedoes or other types of ammunition. However, the truce is preserved, — He writes.
< p > similarly, the ex-commander of NATO, Russia and Ukraine “ they are unlikely to be able to completely reconcile in the near future ”, especially taking into account the cruel military crimes of Russians.
62 > < p > — The Korean war shows us that it is not necessary to solve all problems at once. Countries can at least create a reasonable ceasefire leading to negotiations, and then to a truce. Do not let the desire to perfectly become an enemy of a rather good — Especially if this allows the guns to shut up, — He adds.< p > Thus, he considers the Stavridis, looking into the past of these two wars, you can see the best future for Ukraine. < p >
