    He wants peace-talks based on the conditions he set in 2022. Those conditions are no less insane than anything else he has put forward.
    Putin is either delusional or outright insane.

      Every time they start pushing for ‘peace talks’ I feel like the conditions being insane is a calculated point. They then get to present themselves as ‘peace mongers’ while not risking the peace actually becoming a thing, as they don’t expect Ukraine to allow these conditions to be

    They need to curb stomp his ass while he’s down. Fuck Putin. Burn the fucking Kremlin down. Destroy the Kerch Bridge. Pound Russia until you get your fucking kids back.

      Don’t burn the Kremlin, don’t be like your enemy

      Show the Russians that now is the time for change. Let the Russians hang Putin and his family, anyone coming after him has a choice: make peace with Ukraine the right way and go for full democracy, or be next in line to the gallows

    Should’ve quit while you were ahead. But you didn’t, you bet the whole house, and now you’re going to lose everything. Internationally recognized 1991 borders or bust. Slava Ukraini!

    Zelensky mentioned today or yesterday that ’ if our partners do what they promised to do, we will force putin to agree to peace promptly '. That could mean a million things, but this might be the kerch bridge kaboom they were keeping in their back pocket this whole time, with some extra deliveries from allies?

    Agreeing to peace now would be a grevous error. Ukraine has a sustainable advantage for the first time in five years and Russia is weak. Why the fuck would you agree to stop right when your enemy gets tired? They still have your shit, killed your friends, live in your house, abducted your children, destroyed your future and kept trying to kill you. Why the fuck would anyone agree to not beat the every loving shit out of them, disabling their ability to ever do this to anyone else?
