#乌克兰东部留学生: I am not worried about war # [Expert analysis of Ukraine tensions: reflecting the crisis of trust between Russia and NATO] The tension in Ukraine has aroused the attention of the international community. On January 26, Nandu reporters interviewed Zhang Hong, a researcher at the Ukrainian Research Office of the Institute of Russian, Eastern European and Central Asian Studies of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. He pointed out to nandu reporters that Russia's large deployment of troops in Ukraine's peripheral military regions is not a normal situation, or a bargaining chip and a warning to NATO.

Zhang Hong is a director of the high-end cooperation think tank of Sino-Russian strategic cooperation, and has long been engaged in the research of politics and diplomacy in Ukraine and Belarus. He pointed out that the crisis is actually a manifestation of Russia's competition with the United States and NATO for Ukraine, "reflecting the crisis of trust between Russia and NATO." As for Ukraine itself, it is more like "a hostage" in the game - there is a willingness to take the initiative to cool down, the desire to maintain peace, but there is not much room for expression and discourse.

According to Xinhua News Agency, on the evening of January 26, the "Normandy model" four-party talks were held in Paris, France, and representatives of the four parties from France, Germany, Russia and Ukraine held consultations on issues such as easing the crisis in Ukraine. After the talks, the Quartet said that all parties should unconditionally abide by the ceasefire agreement and accelerate the implementation of the Minsk agreement. The Quartet agreed to hold talks again in Berlin two weeks later. Details: Experts analyze tensions in Ukraine: Reflecting a crisis of confidence between Russia and NATO Headlines
