  1. The whole structure of these negotiations is unsound for reasons outside of all those given by Bolton and his ilk. This is a conflict between the West (namely the UK/US Neocon directive - the most visible representation thereof being the US administration) and Russia. The positioning of that US administration as being somehow a midway broker having a beneficent interest in the welfare of both Russia and Ukraine, is therefore disingenuous and preposterous. The Russian delegation would be extremely naive to allow the Americans to continue to position itself in such a manner. Even if Trump and Co were genuinely in the business of creating a lasting peace that would guarantee Russia's security; it must be kept in mind that we are less than four years from the next administration which, going on past record, will be once again dedicated to the long-term task of weakening Russia by all available means.
