Sounds like you're saying Israel should just get to keep what they've taken by force too.
Nope. And Russia shouldn't get to keep what they've taken by force either. But it's not like we could give weapons to those palestinian children and they'd be able to turn this conflict around. That's an extreme example of this problem. Ofc Ukraine is much more developed, and has trained soldiers and stuff...
Anyway as I said before, the argument remains - are the west fueling a proxy war at Ukraine's expense, or are they helping them win? Maybe one day we'll find out.
You're simultaneously saying Russia should get to keep what it's taken in Ukraine and that it shouldn't. Which is it?
I'm not saying they should get to keep it, I'm questioning whether prolonging the war will make a difference in the matter.
What exactly do you think would get Putin to stop this war?
