- munk-a 5y agoSimply appearing to be more open to diplomatic resolution is a huge win on the international stage - I can't say whether he's genuine in his openness to diplomacy but appearing to be more open keeps western support on his side. So, cynically, Zelensky will want to be seen to be open to negotiating whether he is or not - openness to negotiation is, itself, a negotiation tactic... it's like telling your manager that you got a job offer floated from Microsoft to head up a new division and then just saying "Well, I didn't say no".
