If I were Ukraine I'd insist on being let in to NATO. I'd even concede some territory for that.

That's the only way Ukraine continues to exist without constant war. 💔

But I'm just a regular person who doesn't understand these things so my opinion is probably too simple.

‘Father’ and ‘dad’ are synonyms.

‘Figure’ and ‘bod’ are synonyms.

But, a ‘father figure’ and a ‘dad bod’ aren’t exactly the same thing…
