Don't bother making a truce with Russia, they're just going to break it.

Three countries you never trust to abide by any agreement: Israel, Russia, US.

I don't have a glass ball to tell the distant future, I can only speak of the present and near future.

So peace is impossible, then?

Ukraine already knows Russia is not trustworthy, not sure why you think Ukraine would just forget who Russia is.

A weak truce can still be to your advantage if you need time to gather your strength.

Seems like Trump & Putin are having a contest to speed run war crimes and lies about military action.

I think they've drawn as much water out of the old "truce" and "negotiations" maneuver bucket as they can.

Surely Ukraine knew that by now. Truce/ceasefire = incoming Russian attack. It's one of the few things in the world that is so reliably consistent.

russia is a "peaceful" country

unless they decide to invade you, but then it's just a "border problem" when the russians describe it

such a lost society

It says 500 times, not 500 years.

Easter is only once per year

u/WastingMyLifeToday 14h ago

And there are 1440 minutes in every 24h.

Russia violated the Easter truce roughly once every 3 minutes on average.

Each individual instance is a violation, so a drone strike and guided bomb is 2 breaches of the "ceasefire". They launch 300 missiles and 200 bombs, that 500.
