Re #Tigray.
Only Russian soldiers can "go home."
The Ukrainian Defense Forces are at home. They fight to defend their homes, families, land.
When the "Both sides just need to stop the war" statement sounds, this is, in fact, a legitimization of annexation, when an aggressor is made equal with a victim.
