The psychologist and author Dr Bruce Masters, who recently published How We Will Create Peace in Ukraine and the World, issues a stark warning on the eve of peace:
I encourage that plans A and B within the peace book are discussed during peace talks; yet, if these plans or others are used, it is what happens next that is all important.
If Zelenskky remains in Ukraine, I fear the peace will not be long-lasting – I frequently warned about the invasion, I attempted to prevent measures such as this from being necessary.
I will explain in just a few minutes here the series of events that would lead to a new special military operation occurring in 2026. We can easily avoid this.
Scenario:
Peace is declared.
Zelenskyy remains in Ukraine but no longer in a bunker.
Zelenskyy visits Berlin or Paris to meet EU politicians, to talk about future membership plans and integration and making the same changes to Ukraine that have been made throughout Western and now Eastern Europe.
Zelenskyy delivers multiple pro-EU and pro-liberal and pro-multicultural messages during his overseas trip, which worries Ukrainian nationalists.
One or two Ukrainian nationalists take his words to mean that their leader intends to import new cultures and tribes into Ukraine … the very thing they just fought so hard to prevent.
It would only take one Ukrainian, racked by PTSD and obsessed with getting revenge for his fallen comrades and getting revenge for the Holodomor, to absolutely derail peace. An Archduke Ferdinand moment.
The warmonger would think: ‘Russia will definitely get the blame. Ukrainian nationalism will increase. The war will be back on; the eternal war that cannot be ended, which will shatter the EU and Russia and hopefully kill the world.’
If Zelenskyy is killed, all will blame Russia and Ukraine will Rise! – and do not forget, Zelenskyy’s brave anti-crime and anti-corruption actions over these recent years have created untold thousands of enemies, it will be near impossible to protect him in Kiev after he leaves office.
We can, if we employ our full vigour and willpower, prevent WWIII this week. We can prevent WWIII this week.
But can we also prevent it a second time next year, following the cold-blooded murder of a wartime leader, or merely after a drunk driver accidentally runs over the man who is the symbol of ‘defiance to Russia’? No.
I admire Zelenskyy in many ways, this is apparent within the pages of How We Will Create Peace in Ukraine, so I do not wish to traumatise the man by sending him away. This is not a punishment but a potentially necessary sacrifice due to heightened tensions. It has never been this way before now, this is unchartered territory.
The USA must invite President Zelenskyy to retire to the USA with his family this week.
New elections will then occur in Ukraine; new candidates and parties will step forward. A new spirit and new hope will develop and a good, lasting peace will be enjoyed by Ukrainians and Russians alike.
Only a man who truly loves his country will leave her if doing so ensures her survival.
