Putin’s sought ceasefire would mean Russia would keep the territories it illegally occupies in Ukraine, where the population is subject to abductions and summary executions. Ukraine laid out its 10-point “peace formula” in November 2022. One of the key points as a precondition for starting peace talks is the full withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukrainian territory.
the people in those territories should decide.
No, because that would involve Russia leaving before the vote. Russia won’t do that because they don’t want to leave. Therefore, any vote will be conducted under Russian occupation. Which will obviously result in 100% pro Russia, considering they can’t even do presidential elections without rigging them to the extreme.
That would only work if Russia withdraws and all of the refugees that were forced to leave are repatriated.
Fuck you, we should shoot up your house then put our friends in there and then I’ll take poll about who owns the house. You coward.
