A ceasefire along current lines is a hell of a lot more realistic than demanding a full withdrawal as a precondition for talks.
It seems like just a bit of a leap to go from an essay challenging the idea of Ukrainian nationhood to saying that Putin will reject all negotiations and won’t accept anything less than full annexation.
Do you think Hamas would accept a ceasefire along current lines?
Did you notice where I showed you that Putin thinks all of Ukraine is Russian? Because you didn’t mention it despite claiming that he didn’t think that.
I don’t consider the Palestinian genocide to be a comparable situation.
What I said is that Russia is willing to negotiate and doesn’t demand full annexation, as you claimed. This is objectively true, as evidenced by the link where they offered a ceasefire along current lines. I’ve yet to see you admit to being wrong about that.
The essay you linked does not show your false claim about demanding nothing less than full annexation to be true.
You’re making another giant leap again. His essay just questions Ukraine’s national identity, that’s not the same the same as asserting a right to all of Ukraine’s territory. I have not lied, and I won’t continue either unless you apologize for that false accusation.
He’s making a claim about history that seeks to delegitimize the Ukrainian government, but that is not the same thing as saying that all Ukrainian territory belongs to Russia. At present, it’s just a theoretical argument.

Please back this up with evidence. I gave you a direct quote.
Putin claimed there is “no historical basis” for the “idea of Ukrainian people as a nation separate from the Russians”
There’s your evidence. Don’t know what else to tell you. He could try to use that argument to claim all of Ukraine’s territory, but he has not claimed all of Ukraine’s territory, the quote simply does not show him doing that.

And now you’re lying. This is what you said:
He literally claims all of Ukraine in that essay.
I don’t think it is worth continuing if you’re just going to lie.

He’s literally saying Ukraine and Russia are the same nation. How much more blatant does he have to be?
