"You people would rather they just keep going."

It really doesn't matter what I want, nor what you want. What does Ukraine want? They want a ceasefire. Allies in the EU want a ceasefire. The US also wanted a ceasefire, until Trump got bent over the barrel in AK. Going in, he promised sanctions if a ceasefire wasn't agreed to, then he scurried away from AK like a little bitch.

It's clear that Putin will not stop the war in Ukraine until:
1. He controls all of Ukraine, or
2. He chooses to stop because remaining at war is untenable for his economy and political stability.

There are no other outcomes. A peace deal that includes giving away the most fortified parts of Ukraine will speed things up, but Ukraine will not have a country. The people of Ukraine understand that their very existence is on the line...and they're willing to fight for it. Allies should support them, NOT make concessions to Russia.
