I love this logic. Muscovy supplies gas and oil, which means that everyone should make concessions to it, because how is the world without gas and oil?
Muscovy attacked Ukraine, which produces agricultural products for the world, therefore, everyone (and Ukraine) should make concessions to Muscovy, because how is the world without food?
False logic
Putin also needs to make concessions so that he “saves face”, because he is dangerous a psychopath who wants to kill everyone.
Since there are no dangerous psychopaths among the leaders of Ukraine, and no one threatens to knock everyone out, is it worth worrying about their face either?
If Muscovites kill peaceful Ukrainians, rape, torture – this is aggression. When Ukrainians adequately respond to aggression by destroying Muscovites, this is already an “escalation”.
