  2. good luck with that, the loser doesnt get to dictate shit in war.

  3. Sounds right to me. If Putin were really serious about ending the war, all he has to do is leave Ukraine.

  8. Zelenskyy would never say this.

    He said Russia must go back to its 1991 borders.

    Russian disinformation strikes again…

  9. He should give Trump the rare minerals if he drives the ruzzians back behind the 2014 borders

  11. Ukraine have the ability to launch radioactive dirty bombs into Russia, but they CHOOSE not to; this perplexes me, because if your country is under invasion then all bets are off, and all options should be on the table…makes you wonder why they aren’t using all means at their disposal.

  12. Whoa, time for wishing big? In this case I wanna billion dollars! And a unicorn!

  14. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that Russia must withdraw its troops from Ukrainian territory to the position held before the full-scale invasion on 24 February 2022.

    Source: Zelenskyy in an interview with Newsmax

    Quote: “I think that they have to go, minimum, they have to go on the line of [the] full-scale invasion.”

    Details: The journalist pointed out that she sees no indication of Russia’s willingness to retreat to the 2022 borders, or even the 2014 borders, and asked how the war might end. Zelensky responded that he believes President Donald Trump could end the war, with Europe’s support, if Trump allows them to. 

    Zelenskyy also believes Trump has the ability to influence Russian leader Vladimir Putin, noting that, in his view, the current US president “needs, very much, the success”.

    Quote: “Otherwise, — I think that he needs, very much, the success, and, otherwise, everybody will say that [this] was the line of Biden and this is the line of Trump. I think that he needs success and we need success and we trust him. I hope so that he will be on our side”.

    Zelenskyy also said that they will not accept the outcome of any negotiations in which they are not involved.

  15. Crimea and Königsberg too pls. Get the plague out of Europe.

  16. Putin:What?why you still not surrender?Fuck trump! He promised I will win 🙁

  18. If Russia gets to keep *any* territory, then it has cost Putin *nothing*. Putin will throw men at the front lines until he is forced to stop. Russian lives are not a cost, they are a resource.

    Any territorial gains validate his approach.

    We can’t let the Russian “wear them down” strategy succeed. We know it’ll just empower them to go further after they pause and rearm.

  20. Get back the territory, make the Russian war machine stop, collapse the economy, watch Russia burn – take back Crimea.

    Anyone wants to hire an armchair general? I am unemployed right now.

  21. Ukraine should get everything back from its 1991 borders. But realistically speaking , unless Russia collapses into civil war, it’s very unlikely they can be dislodged from Donbas and Crimea. So feb 2022 borders are a good starting for negotiations point at least .

  24. I doubt Russia will withdraw that lines. Only if Putin dies.

  25. As e European, let Volodymir permanently sit at the EU table, please.

  26. Him about Trump:

    >I think that he needs, very much, the success, and, otherwise, everybody will say that [this] was the line of Biden and this is the line of Trump.

    He knows exactly how to tickle Trump’s Ego, lol.

  27. That would really be the only agreeable outcome, if still frustrating on Ukraine’s end.
    Putin is high on his own supply though, so he is unlikely to agree.

  28. He would likely accept that deal if it included immunity from war crimes. That way he’d be able to flee to another friendly nation if things got spicy at home.

  29. Trump and Putin have some kind of ‘deal’ we are yet to find out. If anyone still thinks that Trumps main mission is to bring peace to Ukraine, is just being delusional about it. Trump is there for business, and it doesn’t matter to him if Putin or Zelenskyy satisfy his needs.

  30. And who exactly is going to make the Russians leave…

  31. That won’t happen and there’s nothing Ukraine can do about it without US support. Ukraine is not even part of the conversation anymore.

  32. People that seriously think this is remotely possible are probably surprised that crimes still happen even though they are illegal

  33. Seems like a straightforward solution is available that could find a lot of support. Split Ukraine into two nations, east and west Ukraine, along the Dnieper (with protectorate status for Zhaporizia).
    Give immediate NATO membership to West Ukraine and Russia must withdraw from all territory, including Crimea, which will all be part of East Ukraine.

    Then, the carrot for Putin, grant 50/50 rights to mineral extraction to Russia and East Ukraine based on joint ownership mining companies, plus permanent rights to maintain a naval base at Sevastopol. 50% of mining revenue from both sides for 25 years are committed to rebuilding the country.

    East Ukraine gets Northern Ireland-style rights for citizens to hold Ukrainian and/or Russian passports, plus the future legal framework to determine its allegiance, e.g. a referendum vote on re-union with West Ukraine, etc.

    It will be a bittersweet pill for all sides to swallow, and those are the kinds of pills that get the job done
