That would be up to the Ukrainians, Vlad. Not my call.
And it's also up to Putin, of course.
Ukrainian war could be ended anytime, ruzzians can simply go home instead of dying for $20000.
The second option to end the war is for Ukrainians to surrender. To surrender their country, culture and future. And become in 10 years a part of ruzzian occupation army somewhere in Estonia.
Yes! In March 2022! Who wanted to keep it going? Who went to Ukraine on behalf of USA to scuttle peace talks? Boris Johnson.
USA wanted this war. Putin's mistake was taking the bait.
There was nothing to scuttle. To this day, Russia stands by the original demands of taking over Ukraine's government, disbanding its army, and blocking foreign aid to Ukraine. Or in other words, unconditional surrender.
> USA wanted this war. Putin's mistake was taking the bait.
After the invasion stalled in March 2022, I predicted that in ten years' time, Putin would be blamed for being a CIA agent sent to destroy Russia. Looks like we're halfway there. :)
Which also amounts to unconditional surrender, but with extra steps.
Have you seen how US soldiers have been rolling out red carpet for putin? A national hero was coming home.
