There is only one solution. The total defeat of Putin's Russia and the formation of a democratic Russian nation with fair elections and guaranteed human rights, rule of law and all the liberal concepts for a liberal state in place.
You mean like in the west ? Democracy and fair elections ? Rampant drug abuse. soaring crime, attacking other countries like Afghanistan,Iraq。Syria etc.Go look at Youtube videos on how the Russians live compared to the so called western democratic countries.

Eastman,
If yes let me give you a few facts.
Most people here are not interested in facts or true history. They just hate Russia and if you ask people why, you get-- Russians are evil, Putin was in the KGB. etc.
Which country has higher morals than the West, who is self sufficient for food, gas, fuel, minerals, wheat, fertilizer etc.
While the west and Europe are imploding within from their hate of Russia , Russian citizens live in comfort with no empty food shelves and have p;enty of gas and fuel to keep warm.

Ukraine should only be agreeing to negotiations if Russia agrees to return Crimea.
Otherwise, Ukraine is going to have to take it back by force, making Russia look even worse.
If you knew the history of Russia and Ukraine., you would kmow that Crimea belonged to Russia since the 1700's and was leased out to Ukraine in a good will gesture.
That all changed after Ukraine kept attacking the Donbass regions which resulted in the deaths of more than 14,000 citizens. The Russians in Crimea were also under threat and that is when Putin took it back peacefully.
Also, in past history, Ukraine was always a part of Russia. Who do you think built all the power stations and industrial areas in Ukraine ?
Zelensky has already said he won't negotiate unless Russia gets completely out of Ukraine and that Ukraine will fight till the Last Ukrainian. Well, looks like he is getting his wish with the help of the USA and Nato.
When the USA attacked Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, did you people complain or care for the destruction and deaths under false claims from the West ?

The initiative should be from the side that destroyed the relations.
Absolutely.
Yes ! It was Ukraine who started it all by attacking the Russian speaking regions of Ukraine for the last 8 years with the loss of more than 14,000 civilian lives.
These people had been living in the Donbass regios for hundreds of years. If people learned some history, they would know that Ukraine always had been a part of Russia.

saying Russia's actions in Ukraine are a direct attack on the concepts of national sovereignty and territorial integrity that many believe the treaty established.
The past treaty and agreements between Russia and Ukraine were immediately broken after the US led coup to oust the legaly sitting Ukraine presiden at the time.
This is when the attackson the Donbass regions by Ukraine started and lasted 8 years until Putin finally stepped in.
Why do the G7 countries support the most corrupt country in Europe ? Compared to the rest of the world, the G7 have no power. They are vastly outnumbered.

Ye, yes yes "Russia started it"
No, they did not. Ukraine forces were attacking the Donbass regions for the last 8 years after the USA coup in 2014 and with the loss of more than 14,000 citizen's lives.
As for the grain, only 30 percent was going to the poorer countries with the rest going to Europe. Russia stated that they will send half a million tons of their own grain to ther poorer countries for free.
Zelensky accused Russia some time ago that Russia was stealing their grain and exporting it which was proven to be a lie. He then says that Ukraine grain should be given to the poorer countries but most went to feed Europe.

Learn some history. The Russians have been living in the Donbass regions for generations. Much of the population in the Donbass is also Russian speaking Ukrainian.
Ukraine had been attacking the Donbass for the last 8 years with the loss of more than 14,000 peopl's lives. Putin has finally put a stop to it.

This war is a war is being waged ,against NATO and the west. using Ukraine as canon fodder. NATO had already been training Ukraine soldiers and supplying weapons long before Russia went in to protect the Russian spealing areas in the Donbass,
Ukraine had been shelling these regions for 8 years with the loss of more than 14,000 civilian lives.
Those being called up are not used on the front lines but will be there to protect the Russian speaking areas whilst freeing up the experienced military to do their work elsewhere.
If you want to know the real truth and history of what is going on, look for Scott Ritter who is an ex UN weapons inspector.

How long is everyone going to wear these masks, Going in to the 3rd year now for a so called virus with more than 99 percent recovery rate.
The only outbreak is the constant testing of a virus that has never been isolated. Even experts in the field of virus and infections around the worldall state that masks do not do anything.
New Zealand has ditched the masks and so have some other countries also. If anyone is infected with anything, it is just the normal Flu. After all, what happened to the Flu statistics that used to be reported ?
People are so indoctrinated that they still wear these masks out in open deserted streets at night or while driving their cars etc.

To all those Russian haters. Ukraine had been shelling the Donbass Russian speaking regions for the last 8 years with the loss of over 14,000 civilian lives, and you think the Russians are bad.
Apart from the broken agreements between Russia and Ukraine ( Minsk agreement for one ) which was brokered by France and Gernany, was the continuing threat of NATO breaking their agreements also.
Ukrain in history always was a part of Russia so of course there would be certain areas today with Russians still living in Ukraine. One of the main reasons Putin went in to war with Ukraine was because of the slaughter of it's own citizens by the Nazi militas and Ukraine military.
And before someone decides to delete me for being offensive/vulgar, it was the United Nations in 2012 who reported that there was a real threat of Nazism rising in the Ukraine

It would be understandable for Russia to close the plant down if Zelensky keeps bombing it. Stories of Russia bombing themselves is quite ridiculous.
