There are several indications of what the plan might be: <\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li class=\"yiv7648997848MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><strong>Create a military demarcation line in Europe, like the one that has divided the Korean peninsula for 70 years,<\/strong> formally demilitarized through an armistice with Russia. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"yiv7648997848MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><strong>Put Ukraine, formally out of NATO, \u201cunder the tutelage\u201d of Poland<\/strong> which, at the official request of Kyiv, would permanently deploy its military forces there together with those of the three Baltic Republics and possibly other NATO countries.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"yiv7648997848MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Hence the need for \u201c<i>Ukraine\u2019s recovery<\/i>\u201c, which cost is expected to be between 400 and 1,000 billion dollars. In this framework, European Union \u2013 which this year has allocated 18 billion euros to pay salaries, pensions, and public services in Ukraine \u2013 allocates another 50 billion euros for the \u201c<i>recovery<\/i>\u201d of Ukraine, taking away other vital resources from EU countries. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7648997848MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The plan stems from the failure of the \u201c<i>Ukrainian counter-offensive<\/i>\u201d which, according to what they announced, was supposed to break through the Russian lines and reconquer the \u201c<i>occupied territories<\/i>\u201c. The Ukrainian armed forces, financed, armed, and trained by NATO, equipped with the most modern weaponry (such as the German Leopard tanks) are suffering increasing losses. Hence the need for a new strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7648997848MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">\u201c<i>An unwinnable war \/ Washington needs an endgame in Ukraine<\/i>,\u201d writes Samuel Charap, an analyst at the RAND Corporation: \u201c<i>A total victory on the field by either side is nearly impossible. Proper peace is impossible. However, it is possible that the two sides could settle for a Korean-style armistice line<\/i>.\u201d This scenario is further elaborated by Anders Rasmussen, NATO secretary general at the time when it demolished the Libyan State in war and started covert operations to do the same in Syria: \u201c<i>We know that Poland is very busy providing assistance specific to Ukraine. I do not exclude that Poland is even more involved in this context on a national basis and that it is followed by the Baltic states, with the possibility of sending troops to Ukraine<\/i>.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>______________________________________________<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Manlio-Dinucci-e1527784060457.jpg\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-112211\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Manlio-Dinucci-e1527784060457.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100\" height=\"117\" \/><\/a>Manlio Dinucci is a research associate of the Centre for Research on Globalization, a geographer, and geopolitical scientist.
