Pro russia staying within its own fucking borders. Only russia is to blame. Letting them swallow up their neighbours one by one isn't the answer.
Just let russia anex whoever they want right? As long as they don't anex your country?
No. Thar is the outcome if russia isn't stopped.
They would be if they had the support they needed. They have a will to defend their homes and land and loved ones from the invaders. They don't want to roll over to russias colonialism.
No we shouldn't allow russia to take over Ukraine. Hence the support from other nations. There was peace before russias colonial ambitions made them invade. Russia wants peace to re arm and re equip so they can do it again. And then they will slowly eat away at their neighbors, causing even more death and destruction. Ukraine will suffer unless russia goes back to it's pre 2012 borders. You want perpetual and further chaos, choose the route of appeasement.
Russia is the one trying to start WW3, but what, any attempt to say "no, bad country" is being a warmonger?
The hope is always to prevent escalation, but you cant sit idly by while things spiral out of control. No one wants war, and it always comes at a cost of innocent lives. We need to focus on ways to prevent it... which means being willing to spray the dog with water and say "no, bad dog".
Its so weird that you see the USA 'escalating the situation', not the ukranian people trying to defend themselves. Weird that, huh?
i dont beleive its my choice, or the americans choice, but is instead the choice of Ukraine and the Ukranian people.
What IS our choice is whether we support them, or let them fight without support.
What makes you the right person to chose for an entire foreign nation?
Diplomacy is essential and should always be the first, second, and third line of defense. However, diplomacy backed by a stance of 'turning the other cheek' in the face of invasion often encourages further aggression, rather than preventing it.
In the end, when a nation is invaded and forced to defend itself, suggesting that they should simply surrender and allow themselves to be conquered is not only impractical but also dangerously naive. That mindset, rather than leading to peace, often perpetuates conflict.
This is just victim blaming, war-sympathizing, and Russia simping behavior. Russia started it, Russia continues it, and Russia could end it tomorrow at no loss of life. I don't know WHY you are pro-Russia, but you ARE revealing yourself to be pro-war, as long as its anyone but the USA.
If Ukriane gave up today, thousands of people would STILL die as Russia invades, sends people to camps, ect ect. But i guess you are OK with that.
"I don't want Russia to take over a country, so i want to tell a foreign nation to roll over and surrender so its taken over by Russia"
NOT a strong argument.
