@RALee85:
Interesting interview with a Russian T-80BVM tanker who fought in Ukraine. He has positive things to say about the tank but criticized its Sosna-U thermal imager, noted its high fuel consumption, and said they never bring more than 10 shells at a time.

"The West has learned to live with and contain Putin for the past two "decades — and will likely continue to have to do so into the next."

No, the West has clearly failed to contain Putin, who wages a unprovoked war of conquest to reclaim "lost" land.

@CharlesKupchan:
Time for Washington to develop a diplomatic game-plan that clarifies war aims and leads toward a ceasefire and negotiated end to the war in Ukraine. A prolonged and bloody conflict serves no one's interests.

Unless Putins ambitions are stopped in Ukraine, on the battlefield, "a ceasefire and follow-on process aimed at concluding a territorial settlement" will increase the risk of the bigger conflagration the author wants to avoid.

Sometimes fighting is the only right thing to do, for as long as it takes to win, whatever the cost may be.

Seen from a small country bordering Russia: Giving up our principles for a brief respite, for Putin will re-arm and try again, will lead us into a very dark future
