Lat agreed, Crimea has been with Russia for 8 years so best to just leave it with them. Donbas, again been fighting for 8 years and the fact there was enough support by the separatists to try and breakaway in the first place shows they do not wish to be part of Ukraine Anymore so again best let them go as well. The sticking point will be the south and Mariupol now, or what is even left. Interesting to read Biden comments about his concerns that VP has no way out and that they need to look into that. Hopefully they are starting to see that for all the rhetoric that has gone on, a diplomatic solution is essential paving a way for a get out for both sides to prevent this escalating further. As much as some people say you can't negotiate with VP, his grasp on power has seriously diminished and his army has been battered. Even a face saving peace deal will have serious consequences back home behind the scenes for him.
