They could have just done this years ago.

This is totally meaningless.
Ukraine was always willing. That doesn't mean you lay all your cards on the table publicly. Its Russia who is the barrier.
I'm amazed how you people swallow Putin's propaganda hook line and sinker. You're as bad as the TDS people.

If it does end, I’d be very curious to know how what, and how much of it, we have to give to Putin for the favor.
Trump’s no diplomat, but he does know how to hand out favors to grease the wheels.
I’d expect a shockingly lucrative ending for Russia, if an ending is to happen anytime soon.

We can only hope, this war resembles the trench war of WWI, there was no end in sight, just bloodshed.

They weren't always willing at all. Z said no Ukrainian land would be conceded. Hard stop. That was a long term message.

Both sides have bled enough. It would be nice if this happens.

I called it a quagmire the first day Biden* told Russia they could go in. It was completely predictable. Russia's logistical support sucks balls.
It happened in Afghanistan. Russia was using their superior air power. Then the US gave the rebels some stinger missiles, russian jets got shot down, Russia could no longer use air superiority so their logistics chain halted and then quagmire.
In this war, Trump I gave Ukraine Javelin missiles, which were highly effective against tanks and helicopters. The US then showed some Ukranian rednecks how to scratch build a couple of Neptune missiles, and the Mosqva got sank to the bottom of the sea and all other ships had to retreat. And then, quagmire.
Very predictable.

Spot on Winner Winner chicken dinner.
Russia is the problem
Either Trumps is in denial or his head is up his azz and refuses to see the obvious
These same Russian malcontents are trying their best to incite trouble through cyber warfare in the Baltics, Poland, Notway and even Germany.
Sorry, Neville Trump you can’t appease or satiate a Greedy Bloodthirsty Lunatic Tyrant like Putin.

First it was Crimea now it’s the Donbas and next it will be?
Until Ukraine as a whole is under Moscow Putin will not sleep.

Supposedly, the deal is what Ive been saying is where we would likely end up. The battle lines are frozen in place and Ukraine gets NATO Article 5 level security guarantees (either from NATO itself, or from a coalition of US/EU nations more than capable of deterring another invasion). This was always grudgingly acceptable to Ukraine---it was previously always rejected by Russia who continued to demand that ALL of the Donbas region be turned over to Russia---including the substantial areas Russia had been unable to conquer (which included the multilayered Ukrainian "fortress city" defense belt that has proven so difficult to crack and served as the primary defense line protecting all the rest of Ukraine). Assuming this surprising new stance by Russia is real and not another BS announcement from Trump Administration sources---then I suspect a peace deal can be realized pretty quickly. As for the reason there could be a change of heart on Russia's part---my guess is their intelligence sources have confirmed that the Ukrainian ballistic missile program has entered serial production---which means very soon large swaths of their nation (including Moscow, St Petersburg, and numerous refineries and sensitive defense sites) will be subject to random ballistic missile strikes---each missile carrying a nearly 2000 pound warhead. This would be serious ballistic missile threat for which Russia currently has almost no ability to stop.
For the doubters---Ukraine agreed long ago to a freeze in place (link below).

That was the public message. But he's not as stupid as Biden and tells everyone what he would and wouldn't do. It was clear he was willing behind the scenes.

This is why it's impossible to talk about this topic with cheerleaders.
You stated something as fact that was blatantly false. Easily verifiable with the simplest of google searches. Pick the source.
I pointed out the fact that Ukraine's President went on the record for years stating they would not concede any territory.
You move the goal posts to yeah that is what he said but that's not what he really meant. FFS. Like you were privy to the inner sanctum.

The West is never going to stop attacking Russia.
And Russia knows this. It’s known it for hundreds of years.
This may be a time to pause things and reload for the next operation NATO has planned, or preferably test the will and strength of NATO here and now.
Challenge NATO’s weapons production abilities, push their borrowing to greater heights, push Europes economies closer to the brink by keeping them paying 5 times the fuel costs they paid a few years ago. They need another winter or 2 of paying to get it I think. Their economies may need to bottom out before they fully grasp it.
A few smart bombs that were produced to pad the pockets and stock prices of loyal party supporters doesn’t a military make.
There is a reason the West cannot achieve its goals in Ukraine or Iran.
They don’t have the capacity to do it, and can’t borrow enough to achieve it.

Its just unjustified paranoia. Unfortuntely, Putin shares this paranoia, mixed with his gradiose schemes to rebuild the Russian Empire.

If only Americans cared as much about America as they do about Ukraine and Russia.
