I think one of the best ways is mutual destruction assurance. Ukraine should be given the capacity and clearance to also take down Russia's power grid.
- bluGill 2y agoIt doesn't matter if they get the capacity and clearance - they are not stupid enough to do it. Modern war has done a lot of studies and things like taking out the enemy power grid just make the enemy more inclined to fight. Ukraine wants to take out things that would make Russia less willing to fight on (or lacking that things that would make Russia unable to fight on)

- bluGill 2y agoFor how long? Russia isn't doing a mobilization despite needing it because they are afraid of the blacklash.
- libertine 2y agoThey've been killing Ukrainians for almost 3 years. So if they're not inclined to fight, they sure don't mind the killing and destruction of Ukraine, which is more of an entrepreneurial motivation than anything else: - Some want to try to enrich themselves by killing Ukrainians; - Others don't want that risk, but they're ok with it;
