      By defending their borders and pushing out the people that have been mining towns and farms of civilians for months? Mines which will kill for decades to come? Do you think letting the Russians have the country would reduce civilian deaths? How would the Russian government treat the civilians of Ukrainian or the soldiers that fought against Putin?

          It’s not like Ukraine could just tell Putin “sorry, we don’t consent to war” and have him be unable to attack them anymore as a result.

          Its not the solution, but it is a tragic necessity when confronted with unwarranted invasion. Especially of the barbaric kind Russia is perpetuating.

          Weapons of war are the ONLY solution when you’re being invaded by a hostile foreign power. It’s great that you’re a peaceful person, but some realities cannot be ignored.
