How many more Ukrainians must die before this thought ceases to seem unacceptable to you? I think no one will accuse the Ukrainians of cowardice, they have been fighting bravely for a year and a half against a rival many times superior in strength, without the slightest chance of success. Maybe it's time to listen to the voice of reason and to the banal instinct of self-preservation? As before, Russia does not require anything supernatural from Ukraine - only to respect the interests of Russian-speaking citizens and observe strategic neutrality. Is it really worth dying for?
I ask you from other side. How many more Russians will have to die for imperialistic Putin's ambitions? Back to your question, it's not up to me to decide what is acceptable for Ukraine and what is not.
Your optimism is encouraging, because the losses on both sides are classified, but sometimes terrible leaks come up, such as how the Ukrainian mobile operator Kyivstar recently let slip about 400,000 fallen heroes.
I'm wondering from where Kyivstar would have such information - thing that is kept like biggest secret in Ukraine. I assume that very limited circle of people in Ukraine knows real number of casualties and I doubt that Kyivstar have acces to these numbers.
