There will be no peace until Russia collapses which doesn’t seem to be too far away. Give more arms to Ukraine, lots more. Finish the job.
Main paradox: guarantees against Russia try to take into account Russian opinion.
Russia doesn’t have to accept it.
Yes they do. War only ends when both sides decide to stop fighting. If they didn’t accept, the war wouldn’t be over
Guess they’re going to have to lose then.
Then we need to send more arms to Ukraine so they can secure their own future with or without Russia’s approval.
Russia will not accept anything other than Ukraine (and eventually the Baltic States, Finland and Poland) being their property, or a path towards this.
Russia: if it hinders our war in any way we won’t accept it.
Bomb Moscow, fund separatist movements in the east.
Keep Ukraine in the fight. Let Russia fail on their own terms.
So there just won’t be a deal, then. Paradox is a funny way to put it.
