    Thing is the only thing Putin wants is the eradication of all Ukraine.

    This is a war of annihilation. There are no concessions.

    Have a starting point from a man much more intelligent than I: https://youtu.be/mMZYKxgc9TE

          Here’s what I’m getting from their comments:

          “US bad, Russia good. I love Putin and anything that I can pretend is a communist nation, despite not even being slightly close”

          I’m pretty sure Russia wants the majority Russian-speaking portions of Ukraine.

            Russia wants to destroy Ukraine. Putin doesn’t even believe Ukraine should be a nation.

              I hear Putin eats small children and doesn’t believe in washing his hands!

              I love making things up. It’s so fun!

                You and I are not the same.

        do you ever stop to think about how you would fare in Russia with a username like that? these are the people you think should be negotiated with

          Oh I’d probably be dead or worse.

          That doesn’t make endless war a good thing.
