Seeing as you are so well informed, perhaps you can tell me who it was that forced the peace-loving pacifist Putin to send troops across the border into a soverign country and start bombarding targets inside that country from the air and with missiles? Because it seems to me that that person did the peace-loving Putin a bit of a disservice.
I mean, I know he could have stopped the war any time he liked simply by withdrawing his troops from Ukraine and stopping the assault, but, you know, you've said he hates war, so perhaps you can explain why, every morning since 24 February 2022 when he wakes up, he has made the decision to keep on attacking rather than, you know, just stopping. Clearly the rest of us are missing something.
