--- "How is this 'redeeming all of its lands' going to happen?"
It is fascinating that so many propose something for which they have no actual, detailed plan for their imaginative notions such as the Freeper you challenge:
"A far better outcome would be Ukraine redeeming all of its lands, Russia forced to contribute trillions in reparations to rebuild Ukraine, and Putin's head on a pike."The "romance" of the statement is of course a sign of impracticability.
In like manner, only now Britain's Starmer has backpedaled on his "nice little fantasy."
"Starmer has taken the lead, along with French President Emmanuel Macron, in assembling the 'coalition of the willing' in part to persuade Trump to maintain support for Kyiv. One outcome has already been a growing acceptance from European countries in particular that they need to do more secure their own security, including by increasing their defense spending. Macron said he had spoken Friday with both Zelenskyy and Starmer about progress at the U.S.-Ukraine talks earlier this week in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, which led to Trump resuming military aid and intelligence sharing with Kyiv."And Macron? He's wording down the "troops" to "reassurance forces" which wouldn't replace Ukrainian troops.
" These forces would 'act as a deterrent against potential Russian aggression,' he told reporters during a press conference following a high-stakes 'Coalition of the Willing' summit for Ukraine in Paris on Thursday. However, these reassurance forces 'are not intended to be peacekeeping forces' as they will not replace the Ukrainian Armed Forces and will not be positioned on the frontlines but instead in 'strategic towns' and bases."So it will be very interesting to read the response to your apt questions. Redeeming lands? Forcing trillions in reparations? Head on a pike? How's that going to happen?
