It seems to me that President Zelenskyy and Ukraine refusing to cede any land, scrambling to work on a peace deal. They seem to be operating under the impression that Russia will give back captured lands, as a part of any plan. Can we all agree that is not the case?
This war is being fought as if time does not matter. It is Wintertime. Does that matter?
There is a massive build-up to a war that is being lost, daily. The territory Ukraine is losing is lost forever.
It is my sincere belief that as things stand right now Putin will accept no less than full surrender.
In for a penny, in for a pound.

I like it when people throw good money after bad. It demonstrates the actual value of money.
