It looks very much to me as though Russia is within a hairsbreadth of achieving all its war aims. It is rapidly advancing in Donbass and seems to be squeezing the Ukrainians out of Kursk. Trump and Putin both strike me as eminently pragmatic men, and if this position can be ratified and a reasonable accommodation achieved, then there is no reason why this ghastly and needless episode should not be put behind us. Putin will be hailed as a national hero is this happens - and quite rightly so.

@keithhardy8513 I'm British based in Britain and this is anti-propaganda. A reaction to the propaganda we are being constantly fed.

@tzrgazza The minimal land grab involves land worth around $13trillion in mineral wealth. As to the rest - that's war.

@tzrgazza That's war. But the "minimal land grab" is worth trillions in mineral wealth.

@tzrgazza I really can't see where the resources or the will are to come from to regain this territory for Ukraine. It will be throwing good money after bad.

@wgblues9887 I am neither a bot nor a troll. My opinion is entirely reasonable. The fact is we in the West have been subjected to a rather distorted picture of the background to this war, and to its progress. You owe it to yourself to investigate matters more fully.

@garyspence2128 I think most reasonable European national leaders must realise that Putin has no territorial aims other than to regain Crimea and Eastern Ukraine - and that even if he did, he does not have the military strength to achieve them. Once the drums have stopped beating it will make sense to agree that Russia has escaped Western subjugation, and to treat it accordingly.

@keithhardy8513 It is isn't propaganda. It is anti-propaganda. I'm British, living in Britain and we have been subjected to an incessant stream of evasions and half-truths in order to justify the West's interference in what is a mere border dispute over resources.

@wgblues9887 I think you should take that advice yourself.

@thomasmoore1499 It was never Russia's intention to take all of Ukraine. Putin clearly stated his objectives right before the invasion. He know full well that to take all Ukraine would involve an endless civil war.

@wgblues9887 I think you are living in a bit of fantasy world. I don't have the faintest idea how to take anyone's comment down, nor would I do so if I did.

@rhm01 Not really. It is based on keeping the more Russian and minerally-rich Eastern parts of the present country of Ukraine under Russian control.

@tzrgazza I really don't think there is any such thing as "the world community". And it isn't the surface area of the territory gained which is important. It's the geology underneath. There's at least $13trillion in gas, coal, oil and rare earth minerals down there. As to the economy - Russian's are surviving and once this war is over the economy will doubtless recover.
