That would be a de-escalation correct, as morally indefensible as it might be considering how many Ukrainians would die at the hands of the neighborhood bully.
You answered your own question.
Yes, the war will be over but Putin will start his nonsense again in a few years with another country. It is a good thing that most of the world stand up to the neighbourhood bully.
I don't get the irrational fear and hate of Putin. But whatever. The Russians in eastern Ukraine who was about to be whipped out by Nazis probably feel differently.
If you start a war with someone you should be prepared for whatever comes your way... Moaning that your victim is suddenly able to inflict the same kind of punishment that you have been dishing out the whole war by calling it an "escalation" is pretty pathetic.
They do have the capacity to hit Moscow, remember the bridge?
And airfields deep inside Russia.
Killing people of a different ethnicity in your own country is still wrong.Talk about irrational fear
Any case, it was the Nazis who invaded other countries.
Yeah blowing up a innocent truck driver in a terrorist act. How could I forget.
If the bridge is used to supply the army currently invading Ukraine it's not terrorism, it's a legitimate target.
Could be, but if Putin was concerned about Russians in Ukraine he could have given them safety inside Russia.
Yup, agree, war is war, short of WMD's I don't see how involving the rest of Russia amounts to an escalation.
Some people believe in fighting for their homes.
Sure, still doesn't give Putin the right to invade another sovereign country.
