Russia has proven that they cannot be trusted with any significant remaining Military capability. They are not yet done stuffing it all through the meatgrinder.
but Putin doesn't want real peace (that's why the attacks continue), he just wants to try to lock in his ill-gotten gains, like the Nazis tried to do in 1942
besides, we all know any "peace deal" wouldn't last, Russia will just be attacking & invading again in a few years
Yup, its like the lasting deal Putin made with Prigozhin.
Putin won’t be satisfied until he puts the [Soviet Union] Band back together again.
A return to the 2014 status quo antebellum is the only amswer—before the coup staged by the so-called “Maidan” creeps.
“we all know”? What a clown you are.
Lots of Cognitive Dissonance here from the Ukrainiacs.
Your pulp fiction of Putin as a psychopathic dictator isn’t coming true, as new reports are out about Ukraine corruption and Ukraine being behind the missile that killed their own people.
The Depression stage of the Grief Stages are a bitch.
>>>>>If Putin really wants peace, all he has to do is stop attacking and withdraw illegally-invading Russian troops back to Russia ... simple!<<<<<
But he can’t do that. Attacking the neighbors is an integral part of Muskovite culture, like the scorpion in the fable. Learned from the Mongols in the 13th century, but of course they don’t remember that. The Bolsheviks rewrote history so often that the man in the street couldn’t know what happened yesterday without consulting Pravda.

It’s way too late for ‘quick’
Ukraine is a corrupt state run by Nazis. Putin does not want the western garbage on his border and i do not blame him.
Quackery is
An irrelevant
over simplification
Of an undetected
Complex problem
Usually attacking symptoms
Unaware of causes

Ukraine has not made many territorial gains in the last 6 mo, but it has inflicted more damage on Russias military than the Russians have inflicted on Ukrainian military. About three times as much, both in terms of men and equipment, according to most analyses I’ve seen. Russia is more than 3x the size though so I don’t know if it will be enough. Also, Russia is directing most of its attacks on civilians, so Ukraines losses need to take those civilian losses into account.
“...besides, we all know any “peace deal” wouldn’t last, Russia will just be attacking & invading again in a few years...”
Russia is expected to make international agreements, then break them in the future.
So like NATO, then ?
Yup, then more neighboring countries would be gobbled up by Herr Putin. Tyrants are all the same.
PUTIN wants to ‘reunify’ the entire original Soviet Union before he kicks the bucket.
Update on the conflict in Ukraine for September 18, 2023
- Ukrainian offensive operations remain stagnant along the line of contact with Russian counterattacks overturning what superficial progress they do make;
- The Western media citing US and other NATO member state officials admits Ukrainian forces lacked the proper training to conduct a successful offensive;
- As Western sources begin admitting to Ukraine's catastrophic losses in men and materiel, they also admit Russian losses are near all time lows;
- The collective West also acknowledges that the amount of ammunition and weapons Ukraine requires is beyond the West’s ability to provide both in the short and intermediate future;
- In order to provide such levels of material support, the West would need to significantly mobilize its population, industry, and military, a prospect that isn’t even being seriously considered let alone planned;
He could have had a quick end a long time ago if he did not invaded a sovereign country in the first place! How about he just gets the hell out now!
