every agreed to cease fire russia has used to rearrange their troops and then launch a surprise attack. as long as the kremlin leadership remains the same, no person, agency, tribe, state, or nation should trust a single russian overture towards peace or justice

Bummer that the US can't just arrange for Ukraine to get their nukes back, given that the agreement under which they gave them up has been grievously violated, and the best thing anyone could do to stop this war is to re-institute mutually-assured destruction.
