    I know what continuing the war means: more Ukrainian casualties and more Ukrainian territory lost.

      Trump surrendered to Russia on Ukraine’s behalf, that’s not the same as “ending the war”.

      Exactly. I see i was downvoted, but my intent was that stopping the war now means stopping the war on Russias terms, which is not right.

        And at what point will it be right? Ukraine is inevitably going to lose this war, prolonging the war only worsens the peace terms for Ukraine, this is pretty much a textbook sunken cost fallacy.

        You’re right. Ukraine will take Moscow any day now and then they can force Russia to surrender on their terms. They definitely won’t just lose more ukrainian lives and territory.

        Spoilt westerners really do think it’s just a tv show made for their entertainment and that real lives aren’t on the line. “Isn’t right”, fucking hell, grow up.
