Putin has just arrived in China on a special plane, the SCO summit has not yet started, and Zelensky Tomodi's words have not yet been brought, but the situation in Ukraine suddenly fell into shock: the former speaker was assassinated!
What the hell is going on?
On August 31, Putin arrived in Tianjin by special plane for a four-day visit to China. The first task of this visit is to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in Tianjin. According to the Guardian, Putin will attend the summit with Modi.
In fact, Modi Biputin visited China a day earlier, the first time since 2018, where the two countries had border conflict five years ago, and a period of intense regional competition in the aftermath.
Modi's visit to China was accompanied by a mission to revitalize the country.
First, Modi hopes that India can strengthen strategic communication with China and deepen trust between China and India, meaning not to be an opponent, but to develop together as a partner.
Second, it is necessary to expand cooperation and trade between China and India to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results between the two countries. China and India are the countries with the largest population in time, and they are both in a critical period of development and revitalization. Therefore, they should support each other, achieve each other and pay more attention to each other. As neighboring countries, we should live in harmony and work together to maintain peace and tranquility in border areas.
Third, Modi hopes to strengthen multilateral cooperation with China, jointly safeguard the interests of China and India, and promote bilateral development. To this end, India has also resumed its direct flight plan that has been suspended for more than five years.
In the final analysis, the reason why Modi is eager to visit China is nothing more than pressure from the United States. As we all know, Trump has put pressure on India's tariffs without mercy. In order to break through the predicament, Modi can only ask China for help and "hedge against Western pressure" together.
It is worth mentioning that Modi this time also took on an additional task.
On the eve of Modi’s visit to China, Zelensky posted a video late at night to Modi, hoping he could go to China to help Ukraine.
Zelensky first said the recent situation in Ukraine was indeed devastating, Kiev was bombed, and Donbass faced the 100,000 Russian troops gathered.
Modi also expressed his full support for Zelensky, hoping to help restore peace and stability in Ukraine. To this end, India is willing to make efforts to this end.
After learning of Modi's tone, Zelensky hinted that Ukraine was willing to meet with Putin.
The meaning is obvious, that is, after Modi goes to China, when communicating with Putin, he will give him a message to explain that Ukraine is willing to meet and negotiate at this stage.
Zelensky's basis pointed out that the Russian army "is still launching attacks" and that "a ceasefire is the basis for moving towards negotiations", and he hoped that Modi would become a "middleman" at the summit to give Zelensky an opportunity for peace.
Just as the parties were waiting for Modi to speak to Putin, the internal situation in Ukraine muted and shocked four:Former parliamentary parliamentary parliamentarian Paruby was "headed off" in Lviv, in a deadly state.
At noon on August 30, 54-year-old Parubi was ambushed by gunmen in downtown Lviv. The alleged offender disguised as a food delivery man and carried a yellow courier bag to open fire, killing him at least seven to eight times, and then quickly fled the scene in an electric vehicle. At present, the Ukrainian authorities have immediately launched a full-scale pursuit operation.
When Zelensky learned of it, he said on the X platform that it was a "horrific murder," and he expressed his deep condolences to the victims' families, saying that he had "used all his strength and resources" to investigate and promising to "get to the bottom of it."
Ukraine's Supreme Prosecutor, Police Department and National Security Agency have intervened one after another. Parubi's assassination was not only a blow to a politician, but also dropped a "political bomb" in Ukraine society. How could Zelensky not be worried?
Parubi is a "patriot who defends Ukraine's freedom, independence and sovereignty". Former President poroshenko directly called this a "gunshot at the heart of Ukraine", which seriously shook the national will.
Nowadays, all parties in Ukraine are demanding that the truth be revealed quickly.
Multimedia and commentaries have pointed out that the Paruby case may have been accompanied by Russian intelligence operations, with some analysts saying the assassination was “carefully planned” and not some “random violence.”
Putin has just landed in Tianjin, and the tasty security summit is still in preparation.The Ukrainian side, however, after the assassination of the former parliamentary president, immediately shifted from the atmosphere of diplomatic tension to the double state of internal affairs and security crisis.
At present, the case is still in a tense investigation, and the arrest operation is still ongoing, allegedly inspected videos, weapons shells and escape path information, hoping to lock the suspects as soon as possible.
If external intervention is verified, Zelensky may further strengthen border defense and internal counterintelligence capabilities and mobilize more international assistance.
Most importantly, many people in Ukraine pointed the finger at Russia for this "beheading". As soon as Putin arrived in China, Ukraine suffered such a serious assassination incident.Lviv’s chief prosecutor, Merrett, said the motive for the shooting was being investigated, including whether Russia was involved in the shooting.
In response, the Russian Foreign Ministry spokespersonZakharova said Paruby was shot and was likely linked to a group of Ukrainian divers suspected of being involved in the North Stream gas pipeline terrorist attack.
Zakharova also analyzed on social media, saying that there is a high probability that this incident will be framed on the group of Ukrainian divers suspected of attacking the Nord Stream pipeline. One of them started from Italy and sneaked into the port of Odessa through the prison sewer. Only then did he find an opportunity to shoot Parubi.
Before Modi's words were brought, Ukraine suffered another accident, which made Zelensky's diplomatic expectations come to naught. Can Modi act as an intermediary to promote ceasefire negotiations between Russia and Ukraine? I don't think the effect is great. After all, Trump failed to do it. Is it possible that Modi has a bigger face?
In the final analysis, it is because neither Russia nor Ukraine is willing to make concessions and both have principled reasons. Therefore, this war is still highly variable, and we continue to pay attention to it.
