Agreed. So why is the west sabotaging all possible peace deals?
Russia does not want unconditional surrender, which is the only option for peace.
The Minsk accords were a reasonable compromise, but the Americans never let the Ukrainians hold up their end of the bargain. There were then going to be peace talks between Zelenskyy and Putin personally in March 2022 but then the NATO capitalists jetted in Boris Johnson to talk Zelenskyy out of it.
Russia's entirely reasonable and very public requests have not changed since 2008 at least.
2008, when Russian forces invaded Georgia?
A short but crucial intervention to stop the killings of innocent civilians, as the US backed Georgian leader started killing South Ossetians and Abkazians in a severe escalation of the regional conflict. A conflict once again spurred on by the US.
There are a great many parallels to the post-Madan situation in Ukraine, parallels one should be careful to learn for they will be developed and exploited elsewhere before the US empire is vanquished.
Reads like Russian propaganda. Does anyone believe this?
There was a peace plan already. Russia didn't even want to annex the Donbas regions and was only asking for autonomy for them.
The US wants war as always so they stopped it.
