Corbyn Is Right: The Sooner the War in Ukraine Ends, the Better

  1. Humble reminder that Corbyn is the deputy leader of this tankie organisation and was previously their chairman back when Russia first invaded Crimea(Which these people openly supported).

    >Ukraine’s President Zelensky has himself acknowledged that the war will ultimately end with a peace deal. This is the way all wars eventually conclude, so why wait? Doing so merely prolongs the suffering and increases the devastation and death toll.

    Of course they’re acting like Zelensky’s the one who’s hesitating to sign a peace deal and ignoring the fact that Putin has simply ignored all peace talks.

    >even though NATO’s aggressive expansion played a critical role in the build up to the current hostilities, and the Alliance continues to be central to the West’s ongoing, provocative role.

    Of course they still blame the West for the hostilities.

    As horrible as that Corbyn interview was, he was still holding back some of what he really thought. THIS is Corbynism without the filter.

  2. As long as it ends with Russia unconditionally withdrawing from Ukraine, including Donbass and Crimea, then sure. But of course that’s not what is meant, is it?

  3. He seems to be forgetting that Russia can end the war whenever they want by leaving Ukraine. He and is crew also seem to be forgetting that, as long as Russia refuses to leave and is willing to fight, and Ukraine isn’t willing to concede territory and is also willing to fight for it, there is *no* diplomatic solution at this time.

  4. > Stop the War has consistently pointed out that world leaders should be looking for solutions

    Why did no one think to look for solutions before? Some genius level, outside-the-box thinking going on there.

  5. Do we really *know* Russians castrated that solider that we saw them do on actual video?

    Maybe we should just let russia investigate and get back to us, it may just be russiaphobia /s

  6. Such a controversial take… literally everyone else thinks the war is great and should carry on for as long as possible, obviously.

    Edit: I thought the sarcasm was obvious… hey ho.

  7. The war ending while Russia controls 43744km² of Ukraine and Ukrainian people in controlled regions are being sent to filtration camps for torture, beatings, forced deportations and murder, is not “the Better” for Ukraine.

  8. At this point, he’s really just a dozy prat who needs to go back to the home, his domestic polices can be picked up by somone with a better grip on reality

  9. Corbyn always seems innocently wellmeaning until he begins to speak in ernest. Then you get this.

    Same with northern Ireland. Claims he wanted peace, only met with the IRA and had to be asked to stop by the woman who actually negotiated the GFA.

  10. And what do you think happens when the West stops sending weapons Russia takes over Ukraine but it won’t stop Putin’s Imperialist ambitions and more than likely it would mean an expansion of the war the best way to bring peace is to force Russia back to it’s internationally recognized borders.

  11. Corbyn and his pro-russian cronies need to fuck off. Absolutely despicable people.

    I see they are STILL putting the blame on NATO for Russia invading Ukraine as well. That group is infested with ‘tankies’.

  12. Yes Ukraine should just let Russia invade and take over its country so that the war ends sooner. I am sure that would suit Comrade Corbyn

  13. And people on this sub wondered why the country emphatically rejected Corbyn and his entire philosophy.

    Labour is only now starting to recover from the damage done.

  14. This is a lot like saying in 1940 that “the sooner WW2 ends, the better” – well, yes, obviously.

    It’s either an idiotically obvious statement, OR that is not really what you are saying.
