A policy of non-engagement ("Don't) has netted a lot of dead soldiers and civilians and will kill a whole lot more if left unresolved. So..to oppose a peace solution means you support more dead Ukranians. The Ukraine can't withstand a war of attrition with Russia.
Here's what Macron said yesterday:
"I think the arrival of President Trump is a game-changer. And I think he has the deterrence capacity of the U.S. to reengage with Russia."
Macron also says he sees the possibility of a truce between Russia and Ukraine in the coming weeks.
"A truce on air, sea and infrastructures," the French president explained. "If it is not respected, it will be the best evidence of the fact that Russia is not serious."
During the truce, Macron suggested there would be negotiations on security guarantees, land, occupied territories and reconstruction.
Sounds pretty reasonable to me. Btw...speaking of bromances...a lot of that going on between ol' Macaroni and Trump.
will the media tab that bromance Macaroni and Cheese?

I’m against war. It needs to stop now. If that means Russia keeps the Crimea then so be it.

Does anyone actually think that enabling a vicious despot with imperialist ambitions will make them STOP killing?
Honestly?

Macron said that Russia had agreed to a European led peacekeeping force in the Ukraine. I think everybody agrees that the deal doesn't happen without peacekeepers. The Russians violated the non-aggression portion of the Minsk agreement after Crimea so nobody is going to give them a chance to retool and take more territory.

They can't be prevented from retooling/rearming, Putin infamously doesn't care what anyone sees. He'll build up forces, just as he did 3 years ago, insist it's for "security", and just launch an attack and not give two f**ks what the worldview is. This has been utterly demonstrated, is currently still being demonstrated despite all the sanctions and condemnations.
His apathy toward any agenda outside his own is heading for 7 figures of casualties, and similarly shameless lying to his own people as well as having Laranov lie directly to the world press.

Letting Putin keep Crimea? Keeps bringing me back to Sudentland 1938...
Hopefully Euro peace-keeping forces in the area keep this from evolving to a "Peace in our Time" redux. Or referring to Trump as the Chamberlain of this era in 5 years.
I dont think that will be the case, hope not.

Good ol' MTG, who's the congressional leader for DOGE (and who's dealing with fallout from investing in Tesla with mysterious timing):
"Federal workers do not deserve their jobs". WOW, the Jewish Space Laser and weather control maven never disappoints!
(this is on most news services right now, pick your favorite)
That kind of dumbass generalization is impressive, even for this known screaming twit!

Putting "I think" into your posts really destroys their credibility.
Just a pointer.
