>It has been said that currently, there are only two things that can persuade Putin to start real negotiations and stop the war:

If agreements are reached withing this triangle to stabilize the economic and geopolitical situation, and the war in Ukraine stops being a factor of exhausting Russia or Europe and being used as a card by different parties, then a real chance to stop the war will appear, along with Ukraine's integration into the European security system.

This will not mean an immediate stability and sustainable peace - the Russian war machine and military propaganda are working at full speed. Their inertia will take years, decades. Russia's multi-million army will not disappear, either, and Russians are not keen to see their soldiers returning home.

Thus, in the best case scenario, if the main players agree upon the rules of coexistence without a war, we might be facing decades of frozen confrontation and strengthening of European security.

In the worst case scenario, without agreements and with escalation, the world will face a war of previously unseen scale.

It is natural to wish for good news. But it must rely on realism. While we hope for the best, we must prepare for the worst.
