Agree with this point. The only way to stop this madness is to sit round the table and talk about a resolution.

Ultimately, we will see the back of Zelensky and a new party elected.

A new peace proposal must be decided by the Ukrainian people. Not by that clown and uncle Sam counting their monies.

FWIW there are many new AI weapons and droids. We haven't seen any new technology on the battle field. Key support has been the offer of defunct old metal hardware and money for laundering and paying off the leadership whilst real lives of average infrantry personnel is killed on the ground - both sides suffering deaths.

This war is clearly just madness between two neighbouring and blood bound people with the same language.

It's been said before sending weapons and money to Ukraine is just like paying money for young people to die for nothing but dogs of war profits and elite politicians profiteering. Absolute crazy madness.
