    Honestly while Rubio sucks and it’s not really his place to say this, it’s hard to imagine any peace deal that doesn’t have involve territorial concessions. It’s up to Ukrainians to decide whether that or continuing the war is worse but I just don’t see any other options. Ultimately, Russia has to agree to end the war somehow.

      I think Europe should step up support.

      Russia is Russia, but if we can bleed them of 10, maybe 15 million of their young men we have a real chance at peace for the next century.

          Maybe give them what they need to actually fight instead of trickling it? Ukraines problem isn’t manpower or the will to fight or training or whatever. They need artillery, they need tanks. Give them that and Russia gets kicked.

          Decent missiles to knock down Kerch bridge, even start striking deep into Russia destroying all their oil facilities,

          And honestly, precision drone strikes for leadership.

          Beyond that, we just need to keep increasing the happy number: https://lemm.ee/post/58230564

      Unless something dramatically changes for the better, I tend to agree. Russia is unlikely to be pushed back far enough to regain that territory without direct help (more than just weapons) from other countries.

        I’d rather the war go on until Russia runs out of their remaining money, and then collapses again like in 91.
