Absolute nonsense, Putin wanted Ukrain back in his pocket, under his control. Nothing was stopping this war.
Ok at the start I claimed Ukraine not joining NATO was key and if Ukraine agreed this could end the war.
Some others had a different view and said that Putin will not stop until he takes over Ukraine.
Currently the peace plans key point is that Ukraine not join NATO, there is no hand over the keys to your country clause in there.
You can make excuses and say you saw a twitter post which claimed 10,000 Russian soldiers die each day and that Russia does not have any tanks left as they have all been destroyed.
But it is Ukraine that keeps pushing for the peace talks and not Russia, not that I disagree with what Zelensky is doing.
