Last month, Le Figaro reported that Kiev’s setbacks are leading Western backers to reconsider how to resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict. After 30 months of fighting, the idea of a negotiated settlement is being "discreetly" discussed in the US, EU, and even Ukraine, the French newspaper said on Monday.

The paper wrote that Russian forces are advancing “slowly but steadily” in Donbass, nearing the strategic town of Pokrovsk. Le Figaro notes that “in the West, it is increasingly openly acknowledged that Donbass and Crimea are beyond the military reach of the Ukrainians.”
