Zelensky, in shifting the burden of responsibility for providing guarantees, is constantly requesting security guarantees from the West and Russia, without his government providing any security guarantee that NATO will not expand eastward.
On the contrary, he himself fervently desires ΝΑΤΟ to expand to the East by annexing Ukraine.
Instead of apologizing for NATO expansion and giving security guarantees that NATO will shrink or dissolve, he demands security guarantees from the Russians on behalf of NATO. In other words, all Zelensky guarantees, is that it will remain alive, and that it will continue to expand.
The multipolar world camp bears great responsibility for this diplomatic paranoia, because it did not do what was necessary. It should have declared from the very beginning that the existence of NATO, and even more so its expansion, is a cause for war.
If the countries of the multipolar world provide guarantees for the territorial integrity of Ukraine, without receiving guarantees that NATO will be dissolved, they will have signed their own death warrant.
The diplomacy of the multipolar camp must change the conceptual framework of the negotiation. We need to receive security guarantees that NATO will be dissolved, and not give security guarantees that there will be no attack on a country that will turn its territory into a NATO fortress.
No country should provide such a guarantee; it would be like shooting itself in the foot.
Any state that agrees to have NATO expand into its territory must be considered a legitimate target by neighboring countries that have defensive interests.
A global anti-NATO alliance should be established, based on a deterrent military solidarity, and its members should be bound by treaty articles, similar to Article 5 of the NATO alliance.
In the event that a country-member of the alliance is threatened by NATO forces, or if a country is about to be annexed by NATO, this should be considered a cause for war for all members of the anti-NATO alliance.
