If Ukraine openly proposes "establishing a permanent neutral country", is it the best solution at present?

Before the war broke out, the "permanent neutrality" you mentioned was probably a possible plan, but after the war broke out, there was no possibility of this plan. At present, Ukraine's choice is not vague, so there is only one choice, and there is no "neutral" condition.

In fact, the best time to put forward this "neutral country" plan you mentioned is before 20 14, that is, before the Crimea and Donbass events, and it has the greatest possibility of success. At that time, Ukrainians did not have obvious antipathy to Russia because of the separation of Crimea and Donbass. At that time, Ukraine just wanted to "alienate" Russia, not turn against and be hostile to Russia.

At this time, if Russia puts forward Ukraine's proposal to establish a "neutral country", there is still room for discussion. However, this plan certainly does not conform to Putin's ambition of "Greater Russia", because "permanent neutrality" means "never belonging to Russia", so how could Putin put forward the proposal of "permanent neutrality" before the war?

When Russia instigated pro-Russian Ukrainians to separate Crimea from Donbass, this "neutral country" scheme was already dim, because the fear of Russia has made most Ukrainians no longer believe that "neutrality" can protect them, but think that only holding thick thighs will make them feel safe, which is why Ukrainians tend to join NATO.

At this time, if Russia still wants Ukraine to be "neutral", if it makes corresponding concessions, such as giving up the Donbass region and sophisticated diplomatic actions, it is probably possible for Ukraine to be "neutral". But again, this is definitely against Putin's ambition, so Russia will not choose this plan anyway.

Now, the whole Ukraine has been smashed, which means that the roads have been completely destroyed and the head has been smashed in the "South Wall". Why talk about "neutrality"? This is no joke! At present, Ukraine has no third "neutral" road to go, only to join the EU and NATO and be annexed by Russia.

It depends on whether Russia's military capabilities can match his ambitions! If you call Ukraine, it's Ukraine of Russia. If you can't hit Ukraine, it will be Ukraine of NATO and the European Union! There is no other possibility.
