Interesting and incredibly worrying. Also apologies if you have Ukraine news fatigue.

Largely agree with the overall picture.

Although the article is a few days out of date (originally published on the 3rd) when it comes to the more peaceful, de-escalated approach. Within the scope of their recent murmurings, Russia is not overthrowing the government and installing their own puppet regime necessarily.

Clearly, there is a lot of wiggle room in the term “demilitarisation” but a ceasefire would mean force isn’t being used.

Demilitarised means no army or means of defence. Clearly unacceptable for a nation under threat if invasion.

Maybe. Or just that it will be aligned around its own defence and not the NATO umbrella which is seen (rightly or wrongly) as a threat by the Russians.

If they use the term “disarmament” then that would certainly be what you’re talking about.

You are at pains to find meaning in a word which is not logical. Ukraine are not nato. If that was the meaning of demilitarised, it would not be necessary. Of course, this is all Russian propaganda to justify their actions.

Is there anyone you won't be rude to or insult if they disagree with you?

I don't think I've ever see you concede a point on here or at least countenance a differing view being credible (I suppose at least in that, you aren't unique)

You just have such an antagonistic approach to shoving your point across and belittling others - just makes the board so unpleasant at times.

I discuss points whenever I can. And I can see nuance and learn from others too.

Also, who the f&ck are you? 😀

That was more of a joke.

But OK, I’ll tone it down.

Sorry ZXBlue.
