Zelensky's Plan for Negotiation and Iran's Nuclear Talks

Next month, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is expected to present a strategy to President Biden focused on negotiating an end to the war with Russia. Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg supports Zelensky's push for American long-range weapons, stating that these will enable Ukraine to go to the negotiating table on its terms. The strategic importance of locations like the Kharkiv region is highlighted, recalling its historical significance during World War II. Kellogg argues that this shift from attrition to maneuver warfare is essential in gaining parity on the battlefield. Meanwhile, Kellogg also comments on Iran's Supreme Leader's opening for renewed diplomatic discussions over its nuclear program. He attributes this shift to Israeli military actions in the region, which have re-established deterrence against Iran. The general emphasizes the importance of military capability and will in the ongoing conflicts, asserting that negotiations will be pivotal in resolving both the Ukraine and Iran issues. He warns that the Iranian leadership should take the threat of Israeli military action seriously. As negotiations loom, Kellogg insists the focus must be on providing Ukraine what it needs to protect its sovereignty and to press both sides towards meaningful dialogue.
