I think we can all agree unprompted expansionist wars of aggression are bad, are you allowed to say that with me or are you within defenestration distance of a window?

If you are blink twice.

And by that logic Russia should?

A: Leave Ukraine
B: Keep up it's expansionist war

This one should be easy.

I'm ok with the non-answer

If they are human it could be dangerous for them to continue the conversation. I don't know what they believe or if they are under duress. Or they aren't and have simply had a moments reflection. Maybe not, maybe they just want to be done with this since neither of us are going to change our minds.

I'm kind of done with this too.
