Realistically, what would it take to win the war in Ukraine?
“A Ukrainian victory is when Ukrainians believe they’ve won, and Russians believe they’ve lost. Russia has to lose in such a way that it doesn't start another war,” says Timothy Snyder, Professor of History and Global Affairs at Yale University.
Russia attacked Ukraine because Russians thought that Ukrainians would surrender.
When Ukrainians fought back, the Russians were shocked.
They were unable to reconcile that Ukrainians don’t want to be Russians. That they don’t want to be part of the Great Mother Russia.
By now, they understood that Ukrainians don’t want to be Russians.
They realized they can’t win this war.
But they still refuse to accept it.
The only way the Ukraine war can end is that Russia has to stop fighting, says Anne Applebaum, American journalist and historian.
“Just as the British decided in the early 20th century that Ireland is not British and the French decided in 1962 that Algeria is not France, so must the Russians come to accept that Ukraine is not Russia.”
And that’s what it will take to end the war in Ukraine.
