Mengapa Rusia sendiri tidak melakukan negosiasi langsung dengan Ukraina?

Rusia tidak ingin bernegosiasi dengan Ukraina? Apakah ada data yang mendukung klaim ini?

Jika ditelusuri sejarah konflik ini dari awal, terlihat jelas bahwa Rusia telah berkali-kali melakukan perundingan langsung dengan Ukraina, yaitu: Pertama: Perjanjian Minsk atau Protokol Minsk, 2014-2015. Itu adalah serangkaian negosiasi internasional yang bertujuan untuk menyelesaikan masalah Donbas.

Pembicaraan tersebut berlangsung antara Ukraina dan Rusia dan dimediasi oleh Organisasi untuk Keamanan dan Kerja Sama di Eropa (OSCE) serta dihadiri oleh Kanselir Jerman Angela Merkel dan Presiden Prancis Emmanuel Macron. Dikenal sebagai Format Normandia atau Format Normandia (dalam bahasa Prancis) atau Grup Kontak Normandia.

….”The Normandy Format (French: Format Normandie), also known as the Normandy Contact Group, is a grouping of states who met in an effort to resolve the war in Donbas.”

The Normandy Format

Format The Normandy bertemu di Minsk, Belarus, untuk negosiasi yang melibatkan sekitar sembilan pertemuan. Akhirnya pada tanggal 5 September 2014 tercapai kesepakatan damai. Setelah dilakukan amandemen terhadap rancangan perjanjian dan ratifikasi oleh parlemen kedua negara. Pada tanggal 12 Februari 2015, Perjanjian Minsk secara resmi ditandatangani oleh semua pihak yaitu Rusia dan Ukraina, dan disaksikan oleh Jerman, Perancis dan seluruh Negara peserta OSCE. Perjanjian damai ini dikenal dengan Perjanjian Minsk.

Isi perjanjian Minsk adalah perdamaian di Donbass dan Ukraina, di mana Donetz dan Lugansk diakui dan diterima sebagai dua negara, seperti Krimea, atau republik otonom, di bawah pemerintahan Ukraina.

Namun setelah penandatanganan perjanjian Minsk. Kyiv menolak untuk melaksanakan perjanjian tersebut. Presiden Ukraina Zelensky sendiri mengatakan kepada Angela Merkel dan Emmanuel Macron bahwa dia tidak berniat mengimplementasikan perjanjian Minsk dalam bentuk tertulis,

“Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky admitted that he had told German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron that he did not plan to implementing the Minsk Agreement.”

Oleh karena itu, dalam wawancaranya dengan media Jerman Die Zeit, Angela Merkel mengatakan bahwa tujuan utama Ukraina pasca perundingan damai di Minsk adalah mengulur waktu. Agar NATO mempunyai cukup waktu untuk mempersenjatai Ukraina, seperti tertulis,

“According to former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the Minsk agreement served to buy time to rearm Ukraine. “The 2014 Minsk agreement was an attempt to give Ukraine time,” Merkel told the weekly Die Zeit.”

Jadi jelas semua pihak menandatangani perjanjian Minsk; tapi Ukraina secara sepihak membatalkannya.

Kedua: Ukraina – Russia Peace Talks.

Negosiasi perdamaian antara Ukraina dan Rusia terus berlanjut, Belarus dan Turki menjadi penengah. Total ada enam pertemuan. Tujuannya adalah mencapai kesepakatan damai dan menyelesaikan masalah Donbass. Pertemuan pertama hingga keempat berlangsung di berbagai tempat di Belarus. Sedangkan pertemuan kelima dan keenam berlangsung di Antalya dan Istanbul, Turki. Seluruh negosiasi akan dilakukan pada Februari-Maret 2022.

Ukraina – Russia Peace Talks

Pada pertemuan keenam, 29 Maret 2022 di Istanbul, tim perunding Ukraina mengajukan proposal perdamaian yang langsung mendapat dukungan Rusia. Pertemuan tersebut diakhiri dengan optimisme damai yang besar. Semua pihak menyetujui usulan Ukraina. Sebelum perjanjian perdamaian dapat ditandatangani, perjanjian tersebut harus diratifikasi oleh parlemen Rusia dan Ukraina. Parlemen Rusia menyetujui perjanjian tersebut pada sidang bulan Mei.

Namun di pihak Ukraina, parlemen tidak pernah meratifikasi perjanjian tersebut. Selain itu, Ukraina menolak melanjutkan negosiasi dengan Rusia. Jadi jelas Ukraina dua kali menolak perjanjian damai dan juga menolak melanjutkan perundingan damai. Mengapa Ukraina menolak dua kali? Para pengamat menganggap kemungkinan besar tekanan Barat adalah alasan utama, seperti tertulis,

“Ukraine does not wish to negotiate. It has refused. We have every reason to believe that by doing so it acted on instructions from the Anglo-Saxon leadership of the Western world..even the Ukraine delegation had made its most realistic proposals so far on March 29, when the delegations from the two countries met in Istanbul. But then the Ukrainian side backtracked….on orders from Washington, London or Brussels….”

Jika benar demikian, maka nasib Ukraina sangat menyedihkan. Menjadi ladang pembantaian dan berjuang hanya demi Sang Adi Kuasa.

Peace negotiations in the Russian invasion of Ukraine – Wikipedia
Negotiations during hostilities for peace between Ukraine and Russia This article is about current peace negotiations. For the previous peace process, see Minsk agreements . There have been several rounds of peace talks to halt Russia’s 2022 invasion in Ukraine and end the Russo-Ukrainian War in an armistice . The first meeting was held four days after the start of the invasion, on 28 February 2022, in Belarus . It concluded without result, with delegations from both sides returning to their capitals for consultations. [1] A second and third round of talks took place on 3 [2] and 7 March 2022, [3] on the Belarus–Ukraine border , in an undisclosed location in the Gomel region of Belarus. [4] A fourth and fifth round of talks were respectively held on 10 and 14 March in Antalya , Turkey. [5] [6] Peace talks and the stability of international borders were further discussed in the Ukrainian parliament during the week of 9 May. Following the 2022 Ukrainian eastern counteroffensive , Russia renewed calls for peace talks. Ukrainian leaders refused to reopen dialogue, claiming that the Russian government was not truly committed to peace and was simply stalling for time while its forces regrouped. [7] Background [ edit ] Russia was a signatory to the 1994 Budapest Memorandum political agreement, providing security assurances to Ukraine. Russia reaffirmed this assurance in 2009. [8] After the Russian occupation of Crimea began in 2014, Putin claimed that the Revolution of Dignity had created a new political entity and any prior agreement with Ukraine was therefore void. [9] Since the dissolution of the Soviet Union , Russia has repeatedly engineered frozen conflicts to block the expansion of NATO or the European Union into the former Soviet sphere of influence. [10] [11] [12] [13] Conflicts are deemed “frozen” when fighting has stopped but no political resolution has been achieved. In 2014, Russia orchestrated separatist movements in Ukraine, [14] and Russian proxy forces began the Donbas war . [15] [10] [13] After Ukraine recovered significant territory up to August 2014, Russia intervened with conventional forces, leading to negotiated ceasefires through the Minsk agreements of 2014 and 2015. [14] These ceasefires had potential to freeze the conflict, but sporadic offensives by Russia-backed separatists continued. [14] Although Russia was a party to the Minsk agreements, it later denied any obligations, claiming to have only been a mediator between Ukraine and separatist forces. [16] On 24 February 2022, Russia began the Russian invasion of Ukraine as an escalation of the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian War . [17] Negotiating positions [ edit ] Prior to invasion, Russia sought legally binding guarantees that Ukraine would not join NATO. [18] Russia’s demands in the early phases of the invasion included legal recognition for Russia’s annexation of Crimea, independence of Luhansk and Donetsk , as well as demilitarization and “de-Nazification” of Ukraine.
