  1. This ends once Russia is flattened and put in its place or when they surrender and completely return home with their tail between their legs. You can't de-escalate without sacrificing the lives of every Ukrainian and without losing Ukraine - if the latter happens, all of Europe will be bulldozed by Russia and its allies because this has never been about Ukraine, its about expansionism and rebuilding the Tsarist Empire; Russia's allies will get involved the moment Russia defeats Ukraine, with them involved there is no hope. The single biggest threat at the moment are the moronic peace-nicks who think that you can be rational with the nutcase that is Putin/Russia. Learn about the Slavic world and the history of the Baltics, Poland and Hungary. Do NOT let this become another Vietnam where the media and peace-nicks caused the deaths of countless millions of people who were left to be slaughtered by the communists - that blood is on all the peace-nicks, look at how shit Vietnam has been as a communist shit hole - its basically a failed state with basically no economy. The reality, as horrible as it is, is that Russia are always looking for trouble and would have invaded regardless of the excuse/reason given. In the last 600yrs Russia have never wanted peace, they've only wanted war. Countries such as Poland and the Baltics have tried to mind their own business for centuries only to have Russia always start a war and try to take over simply because these countries exist. Look at the interwar period - what happened the moment WW1 ended? The Russian Bolsheviks went on the war path and tried to obliterate Ukraine, Poland and Europe simply for existing. Thankfully they were brutally defeated by Poland in the Polish border region. As for more recent examples, Russia purposely paid their own citizens to move into two parts of Georgia to cause trouble and then claim they're being oppressed to justify invading. The same happened in Crimea. The same happened at the beginning of this current Russian war against Ukraine. What you fail to understand is that Russia have never wanted peace, they only want war and that they only understand superior violence/force. Putin has said many times that he wishes to reclaim all the land that formed both the Soviet Union and the Tsarist Empire and yeah, he's insane enough to try. Not a single country has had any interest in invading Russia or taking anything Russia has. The reality is that Russia was being ignored by the rest of the world, left out of trade, huge reductions in gas sales as the west moves away from gas and Russia couldn't stand being ignored. The solution for them was to start a war, to rape, torture and massacre innocent civilians (none of which you do if you're trying to rescue or maintain peace). Thankfully though the sanctions on Russia are working, most businesses have abandoned Russia, all software companies that could remotely disable their software did just that. Russian's can't bank anywhere outside of Russia and are prohibited from doing business with any "western" country. This is why Russia is cracking the shits and making threats that they simply can't back up. 50 years of corruption, horrible storage conditions and huge lack of quality of training has resulted in Russia being a joke militarily the moment they're up against modern western equipment. The best thing that can happen now is for the west to defeat Russia and end this war now before Russia get their allies fully involved.
