USA | Trump tells Putin to end 'ridiculous war' in Ukraine or face new sanctions

russia definitely isnt getting everything they want out of this, since the US will still be a country afterwards.

but tell me, how do you imagine these peace talks to go? do you really think there's a chance russia just goes home after spending years taking eastern ukraine? do you think the US can make russia do this? how? with more sanctions? by putting boots on the ground and getting us into a nuclear exchange? by sending even more badly trained, badly equipped ukrainians to die on the front?

the one thing NATO hasnt tried is actually ramping up production of basic war materiel so they can at least keep pace with the russian war industry. but at this point, even that's too little too late, since they're running out of ukrainian soldiers to give the weapons to.
