Brazil could host these talks ahead of and/or in parallel with November’s G20 in Rio while China could encourage its dozens of partners across the Global South to attend in order to give them hefty diplomatic weight.
Brazil is involved since it hosts this year's G20 in Rio; the US will attend the G20 like it always does and might discuss this subject there like they did during the last two.
Great, but Russia said it cannot negotiate with Zelenski as he is not a legitimate president. Are they going to go back on that statement? It would show weakness. In fact the proposal already shows weakness because it implies denazification will not be completed as planned. In addition, NATO's long term ambition to balkanise Russia remains in play unless Russia is able to break the Western alliance in the Ukraine. They are already half way there, so why would they compromise the SMO to let NATO off the hook?
I am not sure when or where would next peace conference be or who will call or arrange for it. But IMHO, the next peace conference should be Ukraine's unconditional surrender. If Putin is stupid enough to accept a peace treaty with an independent Ukraine remains in any form, his successors would have to fight another war to finish the business.
Why is Brazil involved? And will the US heavy hitters 😂😂 be there as well? This is Biden’s War!

TLDR the west doesn’t want peace but it wants to pretend it does, for now
one would hope so, the last one was pathetic
