I’m all for an to end the war and a lasting peace and always have been. This ceasefire ain’t gonna do it.

A cease-fire is merely a first step.

Now explain this grand plan where Putin is backed into a corner.

Sadly, irrational Putin - criminal war-monger that he is - is likely to reject the magnanimous cease-fire which President Trump is kindly offering him. In that case, the vise will be tightened and additional sanctions imposed on Russia. And secondary sanctions will be imposed on third countries attempting to evade the primary sanctions on Russia, itself.

Time is running out for Putin.

Regards,

It’s hardly “magnanimus”. More akin to the Germans offering an unconditional ceasefire in July of 1944. That would have been “ magnanimous” of them, rught?

Oh, more sanctions. Definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Sadly, time is running out for Ukraine.

And time will tell whether you are right or wrong.
