Military at the front wants talks with Russia, Ukrainian society is “exhausted”

Returning home from the US, Zelenskyy faces Russian advances, an exhausted society and the prospect of winter energy shortages

Once buoyed by hopes of liberating their lands, even soldiers at the front now voice a desire for negotiations with Russia to end the war. Yuriy, another commander on the eastern front who gave only his first name, says he fears the prospect of a “forever war”.

“I am for negotiations now,” he adds, expressing his concern that his son — also a soldier — could spend much of his life fighting and that his grandson might one day inherit an endless conflict.

    I mean yes. I’m addressing tankies who like to shit on Ukraine on the internet for not taking Russians offers for “peace”.

      There it is.

      You do realize that this thread is about Ukrainians who are expressing their desires for peace talks, right?

      What about you, who are encouraging people to march to their deaths? How are you any better than a ‘tankie’ who wants peace negotiations?

      You aren’t better. You’re worse. You want people to die for some patriotic pride you’re applying to them.
