There isn't anyone as knowledgeable and right about Ukraine and US foreign policy.
 
Why should anyone care what an Economics professor has to say about peace negotiations? Might as well ask a medical doctor or your plumber.
 
Even if it happens the haters will find fault.
Russia won the war a while ago but the chicken hawks will pretend that Ukraine still had a chance to win and Trump is just giving Ukraine away and depriving them of victory.

It's pure delusion which happens to people who have been brainwashed by corporate media war propaganda.

Then, let's hear what YOU have to say about peace negotiations since you wont tolerate his opinion.

Whatever happened to the tolerant, I might not agree with your opinion, but I agree with your right to say it crowd?

Why would you ask me? I'm no more of an expert than Sachs, who is a Kremlin apologist.



 
Sachs is right so often it's hard to keep up

More garbage.


NATO promised Russia it would not enlarge after the Cold War​

FACT
The myth that there was a promise by Western leaders not to allow new members to join has been circulating for many years, and is actively used in disinformation campaigns by the Kremlin since the start of the Russian war against Ukraine.

While records show that in the initial stages of discussions about German reunification, US Secretary of State James Baker and his West German counterpart, Hans-Dietrich Genscher, floated such an idea with each other and with Soviet leaders in 1990, but diplomatic negotiations quickly moved on and the idea was dropped.

NATO’s founding treaty – signed in 1949 by the 12 original members and by every country that has joined since – includes a clear provision that opens NATO’s door to “any other European state in a position to further the principles of this Treaty and to contribute to the security of the North Atlantic area.” This has never changed. No treaty signed by NATO Allies and Russia ever included provisions that NATO cannot take on new members. Decisions on NATO membership are taken by consensus among all Allies.

Describing NATO’s open door policy as “expansion” is already part of the myth. NATO did not seek out new members or aim to “expand eastward.” NATO respects every nation’s right to choose its own path. NATO membership is a decision first for those countries that wish to join. It is then for NATO Allies to consider the application.


Contrary to the betrayal narrative cultivated by Russia today, the USSR was never offered a formal guarantee on the limits of NATO expansion post-1990. Moscow merely distorts history to help preserve an anti-Western consensus at home.
 
The old view: The Ukraine war might be stopped, but Putin's imperial war would continue unless he is punished.

The new view: We're imperialists now too.

Especially an Economics prof who has a history of being a Pro-Russian/Propaganda mouthpiece.
 
Russia won the war a while ago

Is it really a win if they still lost tens (or even hundreds) of thousands of troops, billions of Rubbles in military equipment & the respect of the entire civilized world?

When did Russia win the war?

You know that happens in every war to both sides right? How many Ukrainians have been killed in the war?
 
When did Russia win the war?
When Ukraine stopped making any progress which was a while ago. Did you think Ukraine was winning?

Might as well ask a conman/game show host to run the country.

Can you explain what's not accurate or how's it's Russian propaganda?

I think Russia has not won the war. Does Russia control Kyiv?

Yep. And he will get the Nobel Peace Prize when he does.

I asked you if you thought Ukraine was winning. Do you?

Why are you asking me about controlling Kyiv? Is that the only metric you are using to judge who's winning?

Already covered in post #9. That document was an initial offer, it never became part of any agreement.

I used that metric to determine whether or not Russia has won the war, since the purpose of the war is an invasion of a sovereign country with the goal being to take ownership of the country, return it to the Russian empire, and stave off further NATO expansion. So, given the below facts:

...obviously, Russia has not won the war, correct?
