You can tell Putin would leave the war if he had a chance to do so and look good in the process, like keep parts of Eastern Ukraine. I'm fairly sure this is how experts and analysts are accessing things but it's just my gut feeling. BTW. Are you okay man? You're always very quick to sarcasm and spite. |
Look at the Israel-Palestine conflict what that leads to. The Oslo accords were basically that, keep parts of the Westbank and look good in the process. Israel also kept parts of Lebanon and Syria after 'leaving' those wars, and now full scale war again.
Putin is a war criminal with ICC arrest warrant outstanding

The last thing we need is to make Putin look good so he, or his followers can (and will) try again.
The Ukraine really is as simple as Russia needs to fully withdraw from all Ukrainian territory. Then sort things out.
The struggles in Ukraine started pretty much at the same time as the struggles in Palestine

In the aftermath of WW1.
Ukraine has declared independence since 1991, Russia needs to leave them alone.
The fault for the long duration of this war is on the West. Desperately trying to keep the status quo (money making status quo) and unwilling to send troops to defend Ukraine. UNSC can't do anything because of Russia's veto. So the West is just trickling military aid to basically turn it into a proxy war against Russia instead of liberating Ukraine.
Call me cynical but US and Europe are pretty much using Ukraine to renew their military equipment (send the old stuff to Ukraine) while using Ukraine to weaken Russia. Using Ukraine as a reason to expand NATO instead of focusing on getting Russia out of Ukraine. |
Your last sentence. Exactly.
I don't care what the fault is and with whom, the main goal should be to have it stop at this point. Not throw another 8 billion of military equipment and munitions in what's basically become attrition warfare.
