Russian President Vladimir Putin promised Friday to 'immediately' order a ceasefire in Ukraine and begin negotiations if Kyiv started withdrawing troops from the four regions annexed by Moscow in 2022 and renounced plans to join NATO.
I think it’s best not to focus too much on Putin. He is the head of a faction and only rules by the consent of the ruling class of Russia. He is adept at managing that position but when he dies there’s little reason to think that would mean a substantial change in policy.
Re: Russia going home, I agree that the best course is for the war to end, which of course necessitates the withdrawal of Russian troops.
The best option is russia going home. The worst option is being made a part of the country ruled by the murderous psychopath.
