Territory that’s been seized from [Ukraine] since February 24th" obviously does not include Crimea which Russia 'seized' in 2014. This then is a significant shift in the position Blinken had earlier underlined.

Words normally do mean things, but from this administration, they cant really be counted on to mean anything.

Realization that Russia will never give up Crimea, which was annexed without a fight in 2014 and a plebiscite that had more than 80% of the population, overwhelmingly Russian-speaking, voting to rejoin Russia.

Makes sense. If they’re not wasting money firing off expensive munitions, there’s more money available to come back to American politicians.

Ukraine, ask South Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq how their dependence on the US turned out.

Just as V. Putin and most the public had been expecting.
Just patiently wait for the ‘right’ American President to officially walk away from it.

Denial isn’t just a river in Ukraine, or something.

I’ve recently read reports that in some recent statements by Macron he has already signaled that settlement with Russia is on the way, and his recent trip to Washington was to iron those details out. Guess we’ll see.
