After an advisor to Ukrainian President Volidímir Zelenski, Mykhailo Podolyak, issued a statement labeling Mexico’s proposed peace plan in the UN as a ‘Russian Plan‘, President of Mexico, López Obrador, said that the peace plan is now being distorted.

“They invent or give the wrong information, they reproduce things that are not true,” he said Monday morning without explaining what information was being distorted. The president pulled from his regular bag of excuses by blaming the dust-up on the opposition party.

López Obrador expressed his confidence that his plan will obtain general support at the meeting organized by the United Nations. “It suits everyone,” he said.

He announced that the permanent representative of Mexico to the UN, Juan Ramón de la Fuente, and Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard have worked to disseminate it prior to its presentation in the assembly.

Mykhailo Podolyak, advisor to President Volodymyr Zelensky and lead negotiator in peace talks, reacted to the plan proposed by the President of Mexico to stop the war in Ukraine.

“The ‘peacemakers’ who use the war as a theme for their own public relations cause only surprise. @lopezobrador_ is your plan to keep millions under occupation, increase the number of mass burials and give Russia time to renew reserves before the next offensive? So their ‘plan’ is a Russian plan,” the Ukrainian official said on his Twitter account.

Mexico’s interest in peace for Ukraine has arrived at a time when Ukraine has been launching a successful counteroffensive against Russia. Mykhailo Podolyak believes Mexico’s call for peace for five years is a plan to allow Russia to regroup for another invasion of the country in five years.

Mexico’s president insists that the country remains neutral in Russia’s invasion of a sovereign nation, but the actions of Mexico’s government squarely puts Mexico’s support behind Russia.
