"Negotiations are not weakness." General Vovk on Girkin, Minsk, and a possible scenario for ending the war
Vasyl Vovk, while heading the Main Investigation Department of the SBU, personally conducted negotiations with Igor Girkin in 2014 concerning the release of Ukrainian law enforcement officers, and later took part in the work of the Trilateral Contact Group in Minsk. Today the general is convinced: Ukraine should not abandon the use of force, but force alone cannot be a long-term strategy.
Why negotiations do not mean capitulation, whether there was a chance to stop the war back in 2014, what to do with the occupied territories if there is no military solution now, and why the former head of the SBU Main Investigation Department has his own political project — in an interview with Vasyl Vovk.
