The war needs to end now. The only people benefitting from it are the players involved in the war machine of the west, while Ukrainians suffer and have their country destroyed. Like always, it's war hawks in the west who sit in their homes far away and cheer for the fighting to continue until "all Russians are dead" knowing full well that brave Ukrainians continue to die.

so, first off, there ARE other countries willing to put boots on the ground regardless of what the FORMER French PM said. All of the Baltic countries, Poland, etc are willing. I also agree with Macron, it is time to quit worrying about fear of escalation, Russia can be beat if the west gets off their ass and either provides the weapons or boots, or both. The alternative is a Europe frozen in fear while RW bootlickers typical to Hungary and Belarus continue their takeover in the west.
Second, and once again, what is your war ending premise? Waive the white flag like the Pope suggested? Is that what you would expect of Canada under the same duress?
I think the east benefits from this war as well, by taking over countries the west is to scared to protect.
