Henry Kissinger advises that Ukraine should not cede any territory to Russia

July 25. (DPA/EP) –

Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger on Sunday advised Ukraine and the West not to cede any Ukrainian territory to Russia in future peace talks to end the conflict.

Kissinger has declared to the German public channel ZDF that the transfer of Ukrainian territory should not be on the table, and has urged the West to be clear about what is under discussion and what is not under any circumstances.

All this had to be done in conjunction with the people of Ukraine, Kissinger added, as Russia’s war against Ukraine was five months old.


Kissinger became a top US foreign policy maker from the late 1960s to the late 1970s, serving as national security adviser and secretary of state. In 1973 he received the Nobel Peace Prize for agreeing to a ceasefire and withdrawal from what was then North Vietnam.
