except a million more Ukrainians and Russians would still be alive.
Maybe. I don’t think you can say that for sure. Maybe in that timeline, that peace would have come and gone by now.
Well yeah, did you expect Russia to disarm?
No. I expect both sides to remain armed to the teeth, perhaps even growing their capabilities for years after a peace-deal.
My country neighbours Russia, and unlike some neughbours, we never disarmed. That doesn’t mean we’re out to expand our territories. It is just the reality of being neighbours with Russia, even then for a while there our military expenditure felt like a waste even to me.

America’s puppets.
That’s a bit of a oversimplification. The only puppet the US could accurately control right now, is a sock pulled onto one of Trumps hands.
Any apprently positive outcome is accidental, and even then half of it is fixing problems they’re themselves causing.
Trump himself is so empty, that anything he has to say that isn’t coming from his ego, is just him parroting the latest person to gift him an airplane.
