On the war in Ukraine we're mad not to use the tools of diplomacy to try to end the war. I'm sure that you want to jump the gun on me now and tell me that I'm a Russian stooge etc. Heck, I'm not even using the dreadful words of negotiation and peace here. No, what I'm saying yet again is why not try to stop the war? Putin will not fall this year or the next, and by the time he does we'll all be really out of pocket money. Now don't expect Europe to fund the reconstruction because something like that always comes after the above mentioned usage of the tools of diplomacy. Jaw, jaw is always better than war, war, remember that Churchill saying? Heck, we're all coming out of a pandemic and we're still funding a war instead of ending one. Utter madness!
PS I'm sorry that I've left some of the discussions on faith unaswered as yet on here. It was because of ill health. I'll try to bring those to the front too next. But lets move to this one yet again first

"what I'm saying yet again is why not try to stop the war?"
Peskov said the other day that the four 'annexed' regions were not up for discussion. Bearing that in mind , how do you think a negotiated settlement is possible ?
@RodionRomanovitch Were you really around when Bosnian was happening? Are you really trying to attempt to hijack both history and rationality by claiming there's nothing else to do than to wait till someone drops? What do you think is possible for those people in the war itself? Making fools of them like the Free Poles were made after World Two? Several Free Polish generals were retired then in utter poverty. There are deeds done right now that will rebounce on those in power today. All because somehow people like yourself think that people who don't want war war to continue need to find a solution instead of those doing it. Madness!
