War is always just the prelude to diplomacy. Gotta wonder how many more people will die before talking starts.

Ask Russia when they’re willing to surrender and stop their invasion, and we’ll find out.

The war would have been over almost as soon as it started had talks not been sabotaged by parties with no real skin in the game hoping to use the war to weaken Russia, which doesn’t seem to have done much on that front other than inspired a war economy shift, which now has led Russia to out produce all of Europe combined, and led to the deaths of thousands and thousands of people.

I’m not sure that’s much of a consolation to the dead and their living family.

simply not invaded Ukraine

The US could also simply not have backed the 2014 fascist coup in Ukraine to sideline the Minsk agreements against the interests and wishes of Eastern Ukrainians

and the subsequent killings of ethnic Russians in Eastern Ukraine, like Donbas, DPR, and LPR, by the coup gov for resisting which gave Russia the casus belli to invade.

The only way this was always going to end — the only way the vast majority of conflicts that don’t result in one side completely destroying the other end — is by negotiations which the US and UK have been blocking.

Vladimirs fault

Always trying to scapegoat just one guy lmao. Instead of acknowledging the current capitalist system in Russia and the resulting material conditions that brought him to power in the first place, and created the situation for war.

Ukraine could have simply not integrated Nazis into their military and tried to join NATO.

But he did, and now the best we can hope for is Ukraine being willing to come to the negotiation table with Russia.
