American liberal-democrats ask President Biden for negotiations with Putin:
US President Biden and Congresswoman Alexandra Ocasio Cortez

Thirty Democratic lawmakers, virtually the entire liberal section of the Democratic Party, asked President Biden to change course on the war in Ukraine, aiming for direct negotiations with Russia.

The letter from the Democratic left, also signed by Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Congressional Progressive Caucus Chairwoman Pramila Jayapal, and other prominent lawmakers such as California's Ro Khanna, Maryland's Jamie Raskin and Minnesota's Ilhan Omar, was delivered to the White House. Monday evening.

The text was published by the prestigious American newspaper "Washington Post".

While the "Trumpian" wing of the Republican Party has announced that, if it regains the majority in the mid-term elections, it will aim to correct a course that has been, until now, in full support for the government of Kiev.

Conservative House Speaker Kevin McCharty has warned that with a recession on the way, Americans will be far less willing to provide unlimited aid to Zelensky.

Now, the caucus on the left of his party could have pushed Biden to go a little further in seeking a confrontation with Moscow.

But the president is also aware that, in the face of Putin's extreme toughness, who also continues to massacre civilians to break Ukrainian resistance, any opening risks looking like a failure.

In their letter, the 30 Democrats say they are concerned precisely by the lack of regular dialogue with Russia and call for "a proactive diplomatic push, redoubling efforts in seeking a realistic framework leading to a ceasefire."

The liberal left insists that the consequences of the conflict go far beyond Ukraine's borders with the destruction of energy and essential food markets and the risk of a nuclear conflict. Therefore, crisis management cannot be left to the Kyiv government alone.

The response from the White House came through the spokesman for national security issues, John Kirby: appreciation for the concerns of the parliamentarians, but also confirmation of Biden's readiness not to negotiate with the Russians without the direct involvement of Ukraine.

Kirby reiterated that it is up to Zelensky to decide when to negotiate, because the occupied and destroyed country is his country.

It is therefore difficult to make short-term changes (for example at the G20 summit in mid-November in Bali).

However, some analysts, including the administration, are convinced that neither Russia nor Ukraine is capable of winning the war.

Thus, pressure is mounting to explore different dynamics (but no one is quite sure which) to bring about a cessation of hostilities, while polls show that public support for interventions in support of Ukraine, which is still largely most of it is recording some erosion.
