Cornering?  Strange.  I don't think you understand, but not surprising.  For many Americans, what goes on in Russia is a concept that's difficult to understand.

In the time-period of Putin's early career as a KGB spy, the KGB typically rewarded ruthlessness that achieved results.  There were no bounds, no rules, nothing off limits.  Assassination, blackmail, intimidation - not a concern for the KGB.  It was the perfect environment for a black-belt judo scrapper who grew up on the streets of post-war Leningrad.

I believe he is inherently aggressive.  For him, anyone who dares to contradict him is a threat.    Appeasement of that type of personality also doesn't end well.  Like a jackal circling prey, I believe he will relentlessly pick off the weak first and surprise attack the strong who could offer resistance.

As an example, if he steals something, rapes someone, murders someone - his expectation is you stand and watch; maybe even clap and cheer him on.  But this also means that the more you appease, the worse it will be.  This is why so many Russians are ambivalent to politics or even sending their children to die in Ukraine.  Many are brainwashed sheep.  If today milk is white, then it's white.  If tomorrow milk is red, then it's red.  If nuclear war is discussed as inevitable on television, then nuclear war is inevitable.

It is ironic that you believe that capitulation in Ukraine will solve the issue?  You believe Putin will be happy?  Will stop on his own?  On the contrary, I believe it will accelerate his aggression.  The portions of Ukraine being fought over include key natural resources and industry needed to sustain a wider global conflict, to include oil.

Ask yourself, would you be fine having your child raised under the Russian government?  Where the only rule is abeyance absolute power?  If so, you're nothing but a slave, my friend.

Hopefully you understand what the Ukrainians are fighting for and why it's important to the World.[/quote]

Are you an expert on Russia?

Also, Ukraine and Russia are much less different than Ukraine wants the West to think 
I happen to agree with “political realists” that Putin’s aggression was caused by the US and NATO flirting with Russia’s neighbors 
To me it sounds logical. I think it was more than possible to coexist.

That makes it even worse that Russia would treat them so badly - with violent disrespect [/quote]

It’s like a thug snubbing a bigger thug. Never ends well. [/quote]
