Trump TRIED to make peace in Ukraine (that was the carrot)...BUT NOW, Putin might get a dose of REALITY (the Stick) !!
Today 11:49 am
No, they are making progress in taking back the Russian territory that Ukraine took last year, and have been making some spotty progress along the front line.. but, Kiev and most of Ukraine is not under threat.. as I understand it. SOME of that might be because of the support pause by the U.S., that has now been retracted.
That said... I don't think Russia is serious in making peace... and if Europe & the rest of NATO is willing to take the next step, Russia needs a bloody nose! A bloody nose in order to:
1) Get snapped back to reality that THEY are not the great military they THINK they are !
2) LOSE ground up and down the front line, which air superiority would enable ! and
3) Get the Russian army into a general RETREAT... IMHO... ONLY THEN would Russia seriously be interested in Peace !
