(ANSA) - ROME, MAY 24 - According to Henry Kissinger, the West should not seek to inflict defeat on Russia, and Ukraine should give up some territory for peace. According to the 98-year-old former U.S. secretary of state, speaking at the World Economic Forum at Davos and quoted by several international media, including Britain's Telegraph, Kyiv should "start negotiations before riots and tensions arise that would not be easy to overcome." Kissinger added that "ideally, the tipping point should be a return to the status quo ante" before the invasion. Kissinger underlined that Russia is part of Europe and that it would be a "fatal mistake" to forget this country's strong influence on the continent for centuries and that the West should not lose sight of its long-term relationship with Moscow. Even considering the threat of a permanent and increasingly strong alliance of the latter country with China." (ANSA).
