The start of negotiations between Ukraine and Russia depends on the United States. Former Prime Minister of Ukraine Mykola Azarov stated this in an interview with Izvestia.
According to him, Zelensky can cancel the decree prohibiting Kyiv from negotiating with Moscow.
“For example, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken could call him and say: “Listen, go ahead and cancel the decree, go first to Washington so we can tell you what needs to be done, and then to Moscow.” And this will be done immediately. Only a person who does not know how this system functions can think that this regime makes its own decisions,” he noted.
Azarov believes that Zelensky can determine some actions at some levels. However, he referred to a person quite close to the regime, who said that in Ukraine they cannot appoint a district prosecutor or a judge without the consent of the Americans.
“They passed a law according to which judges are selected by a special commission. And it consists of Americans. What else can I tell you?” – said the former Ukrainian prime minister.
