Russia Ukraine war, page-222091

The longer it goes the more it has become Kiev's choice. If they were trying to use diplomacy I wouldn't take this opinion, but they're not.
I am not blaming Ukrainians for that, it is the regime in charge that have made the decision. They seem reluctant to lay in the same bed they've made for the rest of 'their' population. As long as there are able to send people to fight back against FABs etc. their show of great strength from a safe distance can go on.
