3 years ago, when Russia invaded Ukraine, I was of the opinion that Putin did it to stop Ukraine joining NATO/NATO accepting Ukraine as a member. However, I moved towards the mainstream (I imagine) of views in that Russia was the bad guy on invading Ukraine. 3 years on though, I broadly agree with Trump - in that the only was to end the war is to try to seek an agreement with Russia; Ukraine - even with the assistance of various European countries, will never win the war against Russia. A lot of armchair warriors will no-doubt disagree with me, but this is the only way to end the war; if not, maybe Putin will get China on board on his side besides North Korea... what's to stop him? (Talk about "cringeworthy"... it is not as cringeworthy as Biden & Co's total retreat from Afghanistan; total respect to all that served there).
