Empty demands, unbacked by pressure, do not deter colonial revanchism. They invite, incentivize, and assure it.
If 🇺🇦 were to offer preemptive concessions, it would derail peace negotiations. Only the willfully blind wouldn't see that yielding to a violent aggressor, is a path to a larger war.

China has launched major military drills near Taiwan, involving ground forces, navy, air force, and rocket units in the Taiwan Strait. The exercises focus on sea-air combat patrols, blockades of key ports, and pressure beyond the island chain. Beijing says the drills are a warning to Taiwan.

Wir glauben, Putin verfolgt ein bestimmtes Ziel, und dass die Russen durch Sanktionen zur Rebellion gebracht werden können. Das ist ein Irrtum. Darum wird es keinen verhandelten Frieden geben, denn das wäre eine Niederlage. RU tickt ganz anders als der Westen.
Sehr wichtiges Video eines Russen darüber, wie Propaganda in Wirklichkeit funktioniert. Hört euch mal die 10 Minuten an (englisch) und dann lauscht aufmerksam in euch hinein. Wir sind mitten drin.

Zelensky lands in Miami. Not a single US official is on hand to greet him. In the language of diplomacy this send an unequivocal message of coldness and hostility. Compare it with the lavish pomp and red carpet shown to Putin when he landed in Alaska a few weeks ago.
