If there isn’t going to be any peace discussions from Ukraine … how does this ever end?
With Russia packing up their shit and going back to the pre 2014 borders.
So it doesn't end?
Edit: barring NATO rolling in and starting WW3 that's clearly not gonna happen. So what's next?
Why are you arguing for Ukraine to forgive and forget the rapes and murders and to give up parts off their country to the perpetrators rather than arguing for Russia to go back to Russia?
Clearly Russia isn't going to do that, no matter how much a bunch of nobodies argue for it online.
Which actually realistic path leads to less dead people?
Putin being killed by his own people for leading them to this catastrophe.
Negotiations don't exist for Russia, they are known for breaking all agreements anyways. Russia is not trustworthy in the slightest, they have never missed to prove that. You don't push the trigger on a loaded gun and hope for it to not fire. If you believe otherwise you desperately need to get out of you bubble and drink less Vodka.
Russian people killing Putin is the only way to end this sooner.
Putin-fanboys love to say “Ukraine needs to negotiate an end to this war” but like to forget that this war started because RuZZia shat on a treaty ensuring the sovereignty of Ukraine in exchange for their nuclear arms.
Clearly this bully isn't going to stop trying to take your lunch money. If you continue trying to defend yourself it's just going to lead to more fights and you getting hurt more. If you just give up your lunch money peacefully then it'll be better for everybody!
Then russia suffers until they learn (so probably forever).
Ukraine has the will and the west has the means to make this a very painful lesson, maybe even Russians can learn this time.
By every account Russia has the manpower to outlast Ukraine in this. I'm sure whoever is left in Ukraine once NATO is done teaching Russia this "lesson" will be so glad to have been a part of this.
If you lay off the Kremlin propaganda for a minute you'll realize what a laughing stock they are to the real militaries in the world.
Wow.. you're delusional.
Bro, hand me some of that copium you’re having, seems like the strong kind!
You really been huffing that Russian propaganda, huh? It'll turn your brain to mush, you should really stop.
So you think it’s all or nothing for Ukraine?
If someone invades your country and kills your countrymen you don't negotiate with them. You tell them to get the fuck out or we'll kill every one of you motherfuckers that decides to continue being on our land. Why? You going to advocate being like Chamberlain? Or Quisling? What do you suggest someone does if their country is invaded?
You don't negotiate with terrorists.
The UK negotiated with the IRA.
The US negotiated with the Japanese.
The allies negotiated with the Nazis.
I'm fine with the Japanese solution, which Russian cities should we delete?
The German solution seems awfully similar.
Literally yes. If they capitulate it's only a matter of time before Putin tries again, either by fomenting a revolution and installing another pro-Russia dictator, or restarting the war. This is a fight for the very survival of Ukraine.
Survival of human beings 👎
Survival of the nation 👍
Putin is trying to kill both. Those human beings deserve to live and they deserve a country too -- the country they are dying to defend.
Either you give them land from which they can prepare their next attack or you show them that they're unable to take and hold land. So yeah. Pretty much.
With Russia leaving. They started this war. Fuck off with your “If there isn’t going to be any peace discussions from Ukraine … how does this ever end?”
Ukraine, and only Ukraine can be the one to talk about any negotiations. I’ll back their decisions whether it’s to fight to the bitter end, or stop and give up. Their people control their destiny. Russia on the other hand is the one that could simply bring an end to this by leaving. They could have brought peace in fact by simply never killing others. You’re victim blaming. Fuck off.
Why is it that country A starts occupying parts of country B, and some people start expecting country B to have peace discussions (ie, give land to country A)? There should be calls to country A to stop occupying country B's land, and that's it.
I suppose your definition of being "pro-peace" involves sending billions in weapons?
Yup. Russia doesn't understand diplomacy. Only force. It's sad that russia acts this way, so, unfortunately, beating them is the only way to have lasting peace.
That or leadership change but I don't think putler fears anything more than losing power and the people are either weak or live in a propaganda bubble.
Peace through Superior firepower.
There can be no peace if one side wants to wipe your very existence out.
I suppose you think the Russians have a right to invade, kill and rape Ukraine?
Russia doesn't need to ask permission to leave, they just leave.
Seems like a lot fewer Russians and Ukrainians will die if the Russians left ukraine.
with all invaders dead, captured or back where they came from
It ends the second russia withdraws its troops or they are beaten out of Ukraine.
It takes two to make peace. And how can there's be peace after the mass murder, torture and kidnapping of children, destruction and death wrought upon Ukraine.
If Canada did that to the USA, how keen for peace would you be exactly?
There can only be peace if there is justice.
Good question, every war ends in some kind of negotiation, even for surrender. I think when Russia loses, Putin is unlikely to keep power, and some sort of agreement will happen without him.
Russia can, very straightforwardly, retreat to Russia. Boom, peace!
I agree, let’s have peace! Russians should go the fuck home
