I'm really curious how some people can bend their own minds in such a way that Russia invading a sovereign country is somehow the fault of "The West". With all due respect, there was nothing to negotiate. Practically every world leader came to Putin's virtual doorsteps and tried to negotiate. Olaf Scholz even hinted at the fact that Ukraine wont be able to join NATO anyways bc of various reasons. But none of that helped. Putin has nuclear bombs. If we were to bend to his will bc he threatened to invade Ukraine, then we might as well pack our stuff, bc he has bigger threats. I can already see the messages on our post-nuclear-winter internet "Well, Proto-Putin threatened to start a nuclear war. The West had every chance to just allow him to crown himself Godking of Earth. This was the West's fault!". I'm sorry but your worldview is cynical. > so I am convinced the war could have been stopped, Yes, by Putin. But he didnt. And that's somehow the fault of the West, I guess?
