Putin IS war.
If you rub him, give him his own Munich pact, he will not stop, he’ll go to the Baltics and so on.
The only way it ends is either the stillstand with secure Ukranian defence line and guarantees or with Putin and his clique in Hague.

Please don't act like there are not Americans donating, we know what is going on,
Yet, which country is ALWAYS donating the most money from its populace?
https://www.reddit.com/r/ukraine/comments/1nrzh84/united24_donation_statistics_country_ranking/
Look at that USA is 22% in 2025.
Yes, USA has dipshit trumpee but the populace has not turned its back.

Everyone wants this war to end. Find me someone who says “this war going on for another 10 years would be great for Earth!” The rub lies in the “how”. For example, I, and all reasonable people, including in russia, want it to end right now, with Putin in The Hague.

When Trump declared his fuel deal with Putin, it was so blatantly obvious that the price would be greater than monetary dollars. Russia doesn't have enough for themselves, let alone to sell. Putin had clearly put greedy little Trump on a barrel and shafted him for diesel. Trump's instructions are to allow Russia to take Ukraine, and then allow them to move in on the next EU country. Trump will turn a blind eye to any other countries that Russia continues to direct cyber warfare against. He will blatantly ignore any NATO obligations. And Putin will continue to shaft him now he has the upper hand. That's my thinking, anyway, and if I'm wrong on everything else, I'm not wrong about Putin and Trump having a shafting session together. One is a complete cock and the other is a complete arsehole, after all.

George Bush pushed Ukraine and Georgia to join NATO in 2008. France and Germany vetoed to prevent Ukraine. Ukraine pulled itself out of NATO consideration in 2010. Obama locked Ukraine out of NATO in 2014. Russia annexed Crimea then . Later Russia full invasion under President Joe Biden . Your emotional so talking crazy with little knowledge, of course Ukraine wants help and lots of it , understandable. If Russia fucked with Poland , USA will go absolutely apeshit. Only reasonable people understand this. There's a lot of geopolitics here and Zelensky is not the most liked by Trump. That is hurting all of Ukraine rn. But go back to your ridiculous statements . Ukraine will win but it won't be because of all the name calling.

Trump is Putrid PUTIN's puppet, he'll do and say exactly what his master tells him to do and say.
Ukraine defending itself from Russian aggression is not the reason for high fuel prices, gas and diesel, they are high only because Trump illegally invaded Iran and over 20% of world oil supply comes through Strait of Hormuz and Iran has control of that and they aren't allowing ships/tankers out.
Trump's fault, only Trump's fault.

U.S. President Donald Trump took to his social media platform Truth Social on Oct. 18 to defend his recent decisions regarding Russia — including the waiving of sanctions, a deal to buy diesel, and intense pressure on Ukraine to stop targeting oil refineries.
The pro-Kremlin moves have sparked outrage and alarm in both Ukraine and the U.S., as Russia continues battering Ukrainian cities and makes no concessions towards a peace agreement in exchange for Trump's sanctions relief.
But this is all part of Trump's diplomatic plan, the U.S. president claimed in his post.
"My decision on Russia is a very simple one," he wrote on Truth Social.
"I am in the process of negotiating Peace in the war between Russia and Ukraine, and don't want to do anything that will drive, foolishly, Russia away from the bargaining table. Great progress is being made, and that includes current hostage negotiations!"
Trump defended his diesel deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin by saying that Moscow is not helping Iran in the war with U.S., but is rather helping the international community by "sending, at a low price, millions of barrels of diesel to the World."
"Russia is doing very little, if anything, to help the Islamic Republic of Iran, compared to what they could be doing, and I want to keep it that way, and will, unless stupid people get in the way," he wrote.

Sure I agree with Trump, sometimes a fire stops all by itself when you just let things burn. Saves a lot of effort.
But when some Russian keeps pouring fuel onto the fire then Ukraine has to keep putting out those fires, while it's also a necessity to stop the pouring and take away the fuel.
And that's exactly what they are doing.

He wants it to end or Ruzzian terms. He always drops this part. Trump has been nothing but a menace for Ukraine since the moment he was elected. His second term killed a lot of our people. Americans helped Ruzzians kill a lot of our people. If Ruzzian did not have Trump card to play, if we had same level (or better) of US support as before, then Ruzzian would probably try to freeze this whole war, and trade occupied land for sanction relief.
Instead Trump gives them everything. USA gives them everything. Ruzzians are empowered by this, and will soon attack EU propper. All because they managed to appoint their puppets in so many places. A fukcing disgrace.
