Your article lacks any recommendation for what Ukraine or the rest of the free world should actually ---do---. No one actually wants nuclear war; your article merely points out something obvious and universal. Do you advocate attempts to hold real talks and negotiations with Russia? Sure, so do I, but Russia will continue attacking while talks occur. Do you advocate not sending weapons to Ukraine? If so, then you are not actually advocating talks or negotiation; you are advocating submission of the free world to Putin's fascist bullying. I recommend both: work to have real talks and negotiations with Russia while simultaneously arming Ukraine to be able to defend itself while Russia attacks during the talks. I also advocate a unilateral plan for the free world to establish peace with Russia. I propose real actions; all you write are vague platitudes and criticism
