    I think this is a good settlement and no one should downvote it.

      It’s an insane proposal and probably would result in the destruction of Europe if implemented. But you know, other than that it’s a great idea.

      It lets Russia walk away with no repercussions and no incentive not to do it again. Essentially it gives Russia all the time and money it needs to rebuild without actually resolving any of the conflict. Without a change in leadership in Russia, the possibility of this starting up again always exists.

      Given that, we might as well just maintain the status quo since currently Russia can’t attack Europe because it’s too busy losing a war in Ukraine.

        Fist of all, ha ha ha, ok good reply on the first line, that’s good material.

        Maybe, idk. The fact is Russia has might, which precludes some kind of humiliating concessions. There is no peace deal with those. Do you have a better peace plan?

        Glory to Ukraine!!

          The only way this war ends is by Russia being so economically damaged by their own war effort that they have no choice but to give in, quite possibly after a military coup. But that will happen on Russia’s timetable, there is no point going to them with a bad proposal that they won’t agree to, when they want to call it quits they’ll deal with it on their own.

          Until then the war continues. No one’s happy about that but it’s better than any of the alternatives.

            Totally. And the only ceasefire agreement that will be accepted when that happens, will basically be to freeze the current borders with maybe some minor changes to make the borders defensible areas like at rivers.

            No reparations, no surrender of captured territory, those were never going to happen, and Putin or his successor would likely be removed from power if he agreed to it.

        You are welcome, you seem reasonable to me, but lemmy has you labelled as danger triangles, two of them.

          What’s a danger triangle? How do you find them? I know that there are some communities that only accept certain points of view even if it’s not stated in the description of the community. That’s kind of silly since it prevents exposure to various views. I hope this community is not like that.

                Just low reputation signals. Apparently you pissed a lot of people off. I have done so without doing anything wrong as to what I felt was wrong so I told you that as I would want someone to tell me, but idk what you are into or anything here.

                  Just wanted to know since I never heard of or seen triangles. My purpose is to read and discuss current events. Of course, I will piss some people off since I doubt that there would be complete agreement on a subject unless people with certain views are purged but thanks for informing me about the triangles.
