Matthew Bryza, Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Europe and Eurasia, shared his opinion on Espreso TV.
According to him, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is a master at playing the diplomatic game. If Ukraine neglected China, the second most powerful country in the world, China could help Russia.
“So the smartest thing I think for Kyiv and president Zelenskyy to do is just what it's doing, maximize the charm offensive in Europe and with the United States. Make the European allies and the United States feel guilty that while they've provided a huge amount of weaponry, it is coming slowly, too slowly and those long-range missile systems and F-16 fighter jets are absolutely essential if Ukraine counteroffensive, whenever it happens, is to be successful. The smart diplomatic strategy is for Kyiv to be friendly to everyone except to Russia and Belarus,” Bryza said.
