    The 'Negotiation' word keeps popping up, which invariably suggests that Ukraine cede Crimea, and likely, several more oblasts.
    How about "You get out of our country, and we won't go into yours." oh, and "Return those who taken from Ukraine, specially the children"
    After that, one can negotiate Putin's replacement, and reparations to Ukraine.

Putin has offers peace 3 times with the only thing being he held on to the parts of Ukraine he already held. The west forced Ukraine to turn it down. This war was started by America as per usual

The Russians were completely unprepared to fight longer than 3 days or so. Those 200 paratroopers were tasked with taking the Goestmel Airport, and no consideration was given to the Ukrainian Artillery Division that was stationed there. Perhpas 12 of the 20 helicopters were blown out of the sky. Those 700 tanks on the Sikiva highway only had fuel for 3 days, food for 3 days. They were routed.

    The continue of sactions against russia should be link to how long russia continue the war in Ukraine. So if this war continue for five years, then the sanctions stay another five years.

      ​@@bryandimery6509 it's worth having a look at the Ukraine Support Tracker which has accurate and high quality information about which countries are supporting Ukraine. During various periods of time Europe has spent more on supporting Ukraine than the US has.
      It's a complex picture with some European countries spending vastly more than others. Norway for example which has a lot of financial resources, has spent vastly more as a percentage of GDP than for example the UK which is having a tough time economically.
      Let me take this chance to thank the American people for supporting Ukraine and in doing so helping to protect the rest of Europe. It's not said often enough that we in Europe appreciate this help.

    "Nations invoking fear of sanctions or prioritizing trade at any cost will inevitably face repercussions sooner rather than later, in terms of psychological impact in fact it's already having an effect on them and they don't realise it despite their misguided convictions. The perceived threat of economic disruption and the specter of nuclear conflict present a straightforward solution: rather than resorting to nuclear arms in attempts to isolate and disempower nations like Russia through ideological manipulation and economic climate sabotage, a more prudent approach would be to deliberately precipitate an economic crash. Let the disruption serve as a stark lesson to those attempting to contain and destabilize other nation's economy. This alternative, despite its disruptive nature, stands far preferable to the catastrophic consequences of nuclear warfare or not

    I finished this comment at another RUclips Channel when I immediately came across this title and discussion: "Russia hasn't been good on the offense since Stalin pushed the Nazi's out of russia and all the way to Berlin. Since World War II, russia has mostly been really good at defense. They lost in Afghanistan. But russia has been really good at "cold war" and being on the defense. We know how good the russians at defense from when Ukraine attempted their counter offense last summer. There is a history of russia's giving up, i.e. Afghanistan and the collapse of the Eastern Block. What Ukraine wants is to speed up the russian collapse on the eastern front. It took so long for the Eastern Block to collapse along with the Berlin Wall, but the West was not in a hot war then as Ukraine is in a hot war currently. It should be expected that with (1) the sanctions, (2) the Ukrainian heavy attacks on oil refineries, (3) the tremendous loses of russian lives and in military equipment, (4) the Black Sea Fleet's limited area of maneuvers, (5) the poor leadership of russian generals, (6) the failures of putin, (7) the free world against him, (8) the necessity to rely upon North Korea for help, ((9) the moral decay of the leadership of russia and their short term denial of war crimes, the kidnapping of children, and the eventual realization of payments of reparations, which they are now learning about since interests from their assets are going to be going to Ukraine, the problems inside russia that are not being address, should make putin an outcast in russia, and as such, by his inner circle.

And if we drag this long enough, to the point that the Black Sea fleet is completely obliterated, Kaliningrad is on the verge of collapse, and other Republics inside of the Russian Federation start revolting, maybe Putin or whoever replaces him will cave in just to keep the status quo as close to what it was as possible.

    It may be conventional wisdom for the uninitiated that all sanctions should be complete and total from day one. That’s not how the Force works. You have to be able to continue to ratchet up the pressure as time goes on. There is also the very real situation that because Russia’s economy and exports were so globally integrated not the least with Eastern Europe. Time was needed to provide Europe and other countries with alternative sources before turning the thumb screws any further. So we will continue to see a ratcheting of the sanctions pressure against Russia. When Russia, if Russia ever changes course, then those sanctions can be reduced in a stepwise process. Good behavior will be rewarded by reducing the sanctions pressure. These sanctions will definitely be a part of any peace deal with Ukraine. That’s the other important aspect to keep in mind. Sanctions are not only a punishment and a disincentive for bad behavior. Sanctions will be on the table if and when there is a peace deal to be had in Ukraine
