Conflict will end when both sides find face saving terms, until such time damage will be done and lives will be lost.
On one hand we have a mad dictator, trying to resurrect the former USSR, he's drawn the red line for the West/NATO, i.e. no to Ukraine joining NATO, no nukes on his front law, I get the latter without sounding like I'm supporting Putin. The US, UK and NATO would react similarly if the Russians were to park their nukes on our/their front lawns.
On the other hand, we have Zelensky, I'm not quite sure what he is trying to achieve here, his ego hasn't allowed him to back down or agree mutual terms. He's not a seasoned politician or president, he's strings are being pulled by the US/NATO for their 'Interests'. I think, one of Putin's objectives was aid the overthrow of Zelensky and get him replaced by a pro-Russian regime, in fact this what the US/NATO did back in 2008? or 2104?
My take, the US is playing a dangerous game with the world as they are oceans away from the mainlands of Europe and Asia, they did same in World War 2 and came out as lone superpower, they are trying to recreate the scenario
It’s just a game for the super powers, unfortunately the real casualty war is the poor civilians, here we have endless loss of life on the Ukrainian side, and the average Russian on the street will suffer as a result of the sanctions, it’s a lose lose scenario.
I wish this this conflict would end right now, it pains me to see the suffering.
