The people I mention proposing similar early in the war were also saying it when Ukraine was doing well and Russia was not. All the current problems were already visible. I agree that they shouldn't stop fighting. I simply don't mind that other people feel differently and will even change their minds at times. > This is more akin to someone asking for Peace with Hitler AFTER the Normandy landing Most negotiated peace treaties seem to come after one side realizes it will eventually lose so that's how it would have happened. > At a minimum, wait for Ukraine to suffer a setback before asking them to compromise I'm not a professional diplomat but that does not seem right, if they did want to negotiate it's generally good to do so from a position of apparent strength.
