Im sure Russia would take over peacefully ... like in bucha.
Maybe we should allow the Ukrainian people to choose whether to fight or capitulate.
Zelenskyy was elected on a peace platform, was unable to keep the Right Sector from continuing the civil war and their representatives from passing inflammatory legislation, and suspended elections after the war started.
We cannot reasonably say the Ukrainian people had any choice in the matter.
But if the Ukrainian people did want that, Ukraine would not be asking other countries to extradite draft dodgers.
But even if a majority of Ukrainians wanted that, I do not care what someone willing to sacrifice their own countrymen wants for their countrymen.
