My brother in Christ, Ukraine is unwilling to hold peace talks with Ukraine being sovereign. The last time they were close to a peace deal Boris Johnson flew his orangutan ass into Ukraine like Marry Poppins and killed the peace deal. Sovereign nations really do get to have Boris Johnson have final say in all decision making.

No way he has any influence in a foreign country, Boris Johnson can't even influence his own hair. Britain is like irrelevant on a global scale.

Britain is still relevant in Europe, even if they're no longer able to influence Asia/Africa/the Americas.

[–] FluffyPotato@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

How? They had their influence in the EU but not anymore. I can't think of any influence they have currently.

Ukraine is absolutely willing to talk about peace, thing is Russia has to leave the country first.

And as you're bringing up the Brits, are you acquainted with the term "appeasement"?

Liberals understand what peace talks are challenge, any percent (impossible)
