Russia and Ukraine

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

This is basic logic I am talking about.

Are you aware that Kennedy solved the Cuban Missile Crisis by cutting a deal? He agreed to take American nukes out of Turkey if the Soviets didn't put theirs in Cuba. 

Why can't the US use similar basic logic to solve Ukraine? We back off if you back off.

Because it isn’t the US’s job to ‘solve Ukraine’. As much as you’d like to believe otherwise, this isn’t an American war. The US has no say in any potential peace process and isn’t responsible for devising an exit strategy.

And just to back up a bit: 

The Russian people seem to like him. He has a far higher approval rating than Biden does, for example. 

You really, REALLY believe that? A man who can order phony referenda in four Ukrainian provinces is certainly a man who can concoct phony approval ratings.

That said, I’m impressed at the way you reject US propaganda but are perfectly willing to accept Russian propaganda. I don’t often run across doublethink of that calibre.
