According to John Kirby, a spokesman for the US National Security Council, they fear this would give Putin an opportunity to reorganize his forces.

If China wants to play a constructive role in Ukraine, Xi Jinping should urge Russia to end its invasion of Ukraine, said John Kirby, the spokesman for the US National Security Council.

Kirby stated: the USA does not want a ceasefire in Ukraine, because it would allow Russia to keep the occupied territories and also give Putin the opportunity to redeploy his forces.

"A ceasefire now would freeze the front line and basically give Vladimir Putin the opportunity to gain time and space," the spokesman said.

He finally said in black and white that the United States does not want a ceasefire in Ukraine. Until now, we only heard that the poor attacked Ukrainians should be supported with everything, but now they also accept that the USA wants to win the war. In other words, it is not the Ukrainians who are protecting their country, their people, and are calling for a ceasefire and peace negotiations to protect civilians and the vulnerable, but America wants to defeat the Russians, at any cost. After all, it is clear that Ukraine is already part of America, both economically and militarily. Ukraine has also become a de facto member of NATO, perhaps only our country and Turkey are separate on this issue. Putin wanted to avoid this, but unfortunately he accelerated the process and although we don't like to say it, we are now on the verge of the third world war.

But there is still hope! The world trusts in agreement, even when swords are clashing. But unfortunately, strength only bows before strength! Perhaps the rise of the Sino-Russian axis, Asia, is a warning to the superpower USA and its allies that Russia has inexhaustible reserves and will use them.

Russia, on the other hand, has to reckon with NATO's military and technological superiority and its visible determination. This stalemate would be a reason to stop the blood pump in eastern Ukraine and settle the issue peacefully. Perhaps we should go back to the Minsk agreement and take it seriously for both parties.

And if there is a chess match of egos taking place, then it is worth keeping in mind the Facebook wisdom that after the game, the king and the pawns end up in the same box.
