To go out of this situation is simple. It is basically for the Ukraine government to surrender and sheath their swords and allow peace to reign. The Zelensky led government is an agent of the US and are there to understand too. . I know it is achievable for the coubtbut difficult for the Ukrainian government because of the politics around this country. The coming of NATO to the Ukrainian government was the major issue affecting the citizens.
Surrender isn't an option. If you think that capitualtion of Ukraine will bring peace, you're very naive. Yeah, maybe for few years there will be peace. But most likely that it will be only matter of time until Russia will decide to take another part of Ukraine (or maybe whole) as they know that nobody will stop them.At this moment it looks that most likely that war will end with some kind of peace negotiations. But at this moment nothing will not change until January when Trump will take his cabinet in White House.
More precisely, the moment crude oil goes over 90.
That's why you should live in Texas... where your gas is cheaper.
Note that if Trump frees up the regs for finding and developing crude, Texans will be making a lot of big money off crude, no matter the price. And the tariffs will shut down any sales to the US from either Russia or Ukraine.
Everybody considers the Venezuela crude. But people forget about the free 'Co-operative Republic of Guyana' which is right next to Venezuela, and has almost as much crude as Venezuela. Being a real free republic, the US can take any advantage of their oil as necessary. We don't even need Venezuelan or Russian or Ukrainian or Middle East oil.
I am sure SOME texans and multinationals will be making the money, not "Texans" in general, but we will ALL pay for the climate change events. BTW US gas and oil is mostly fracking - not precisely the cheapest type.

"Even under the most optimistic view, U.S. production increases would likely add only a few hundred thousand barrels per day above current forecasts," the analysts wrote in May. "This amounts to a proverbial drop in the bucket in the 100-million-barrel-per-day global oil market."

Domestic oil costs more
Looking at what McCarthy actually said — that domestic oil is itself more affordable — the numbers don’t back that up. Saudi oil is easily produced, and transporting it is not a major factor.
"The costs of importing oil from Saudi Arabia are very low," said Eric Lewis, an energy economist at Texas A&M University. "Shipping overseas from a place that has oil export facilities is easy."

In Rystad’s 2020 analysis, at $31 a barrel, onshore Middle Eastern oil fields have the world’s lowest production cost. For deepwater wells, which would include some U.S. production, the number is $43 a barrel, and for North American oil produced through fracking (hydraulic fracturing), the cost is $44 a barrel. Other North American sources cost even more.
But that is irrelevant. Ruzzia goes to war when the price of oil is high. It is an oil and gas exporting country - more of a Petro-state - and finances go very well when oil is up. Just check their few last wars plotted agains the price of oil.
