It took a long time but following Putin getting North Korea involved and the huge strikes across Ukraine last night it couldn't go on with Putin slaughtering non-stop.

This belief Russia could not be attacked and only allowed to be the aggressor was madness.
Has any country in history won a war by defence methods only?
The idea, I assume, will allow Ukraine to strike military sites to stop the ability of Russia to strike harder.

I have serious concerns for the future of Ukraine when this clown takes over.
The only tolerable peace treaty allows Ukraine to join NATO, otherwise he'll just invade again.
Which ironically is one of the bollocks reasons he gave for invading.
Today, Donald Trump has warned Putin if he doesn't come to a settlement the US will increase sanctions. How effective this will be is questionable, given a) there's not much left to sanction and b) Putin actually needs to prolong the war for his survival; but, whether as a result of his own thinking or someone else's lobbying (or both), Trump so far isn't planning to give Putin a free pass.

Surely this cannot happen or be allowed to happen?
That's another ridiculous "plan". I cannot see Kyiv being amenable, as nothing to stop future Russian expansion

It's a Putin win, not a peace plan.

Why would it only be America and Russia? There's nothing to negotiate if Ukraine and Europe aren't at the table.
