    I’m not judging who is or who isn’t a warmonger or whatever, let’s just be pragmatic, it makes no sense at all for Russia to accept those terms. Were u expecting the Russian Govt. to suddenly wake up one morning feeling bad for what they’ve done and just move the troops out of Ukraine, including Crimea who’s under Russian control for over a decade now, and say “sorry, my bad”? This 10 point plan they “proposed” was only made so western media can say they’re trying to stop the war, which they aren’t. And again, I’m not saying they have to stop the war, I’m just analyzing things objectively.

      I’m saying Putin can stop this war right now by going home. This is all Putins’ fault supported by oligarchs. It makes complete sense for putin to accept these terms, because he will eventually be forced to.

        What makes you believe we will eventually be forced? Do you still think our sanctions will make Russia collapse?

        There are no oligarchs in Russia.

        Words have meanings. An oligarch is someone who has political power through wealth.

        Russia is an autocracy, and Putin allows people to be rich, so long as they don’t try to translate that into political power.

        America has oligarchs, Russia just has rich people that contribute to an autocracy.

        … I’m honestly not sure which is more evil as a political system.

          I would say what is in the U.S. because there are more thorns that have to be removed from the rose.
