Ukraine walked away from a near-agreement. Why? Because the US told them to.

Prof. Jeffrey Sachs on 2022 negotiations in Turkey to end the Ukraine proxy war:

‘I flew to Ankara to listen in detail to what the mediators were doing. Ukraine walked away unilaterally from a near-agreement. Why? Because the US🇺🇸 told them to. I BEGGED the Ukrainians, and I had a track record with the Ukrainians, I advised the Ukrainians. I’m not anti-Ukrainian, I’m pro-Ukrainian completely. I said save your lives, save your sovereignty, save your territory. Be neutral, don’t listen to the Americans.’

‘I repeated to them the famous adage of Henry Kissinger that to be an enemy of the United States is dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal.’
