"Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has now lasted for one year. As overwhelming
victory for either side looks unlikely, many are now calling for a negotiated
settlement to the war. For instance, China is promising details of a peace plan
imminently.
A critical question underlying any negotiated settlement is: how can the
demands on both sides be balanced to achieve a stable, durable peace?
The answer to this question often ignores an indispensable player, the
Ukrainian people. For both legal and political reasons, Ukraine’s
constitutional democracy requires any peace deal to be ratified by its people.
If they are ignored, a stable peace deal is far less likely."
