Political strategist Oleksiy Holobutskiy believes that Russia's partners are beginning to put pressure on Putin not to continue the war against Ukraine

He expressed this opinion on Espreso TV.

‘Putin feels that the war is starting to bother his partners. And he is not talking about it directly. Of course, he is not the only one to say this. The same partners of the Russian Federation in the BRICS are starting to tell him about it. That is, the Russian-Ukrainian war has already brought everything that could be positive, so to speak, for these countries. We are talking, first of all, about China and India. However, no one is going to lift sanctions against Russia. That's why Russia's partners are hindered by the continuation of this war,’ Holobutskyi believes.

The political strategist is convinced that Western countries will continue to put pressure on China and India that support Russia in its war against Ukraine.

‘Of course, the West will continue to demand that China and India take sides in this war. Because this war has already become a problem for globalization and international trade,’ he added.

  • On October 18, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Russian leader Vladimir Putin would want to use the BRICS summit to hold an ‘informal dialogue’ on ending the Russian-Ukrainian war.
  • On Friday, October 18, Russian leader Vladimir Putin assured that he was ready to negotiate with Ukraine to end the war.
