You still have not answered my question: Exactly how does Ukraine resist a Russian invasion now without fighting? Defending oneself is not a proxy war.
Simple. If they had followed through on the 3 different accords tey signed, instead of oroving to be liars, this could have ended anytime before 6 Aug 24. Ukraine’s sigature isn’t worth paper to which they sign.
Minsk I and II were western deceptions. Budapest was another run out the clock set of lies by the boys from Bandaras.
Ukrainian government even scuttled ongoing negotiations on 6 Aug 24.
India, UAE, China all no longer see any chance of Ukrsine good faith.
The discussion about Ukraine turning over nukes was before an antiRussian government got in power.
Had Ukraine not been intent on ethenic cleansing of all cultures not “Ukrainian” due to the Bandaras influence, Russia would not have had to start the denazification process which is ongoing.
Ukraine could impridon all their nazi Bandaras’ racists, and it might be enough to gain some trust with Brics or Russia to end the war.
The short answer is for Ukraine to self police tjrir nazi problem at any date past or present. The nazi Azov problem is the single nonnegotiable issue, and it would also solve MI6/CIA liasion.
Of course, Zelinski would not survive a purge of Bandaras Azov nazis... but if he wanted it to end or cared about his fellow countrymen he should risk his life for the greater goid.
