I call bullshit. Theres is no way Putin is going to give up on territories that are part of russia by constitutional law. Reuters is reporting its dreams as fact.
If this isn't just made up bullshit it is a trick to show the us that the zelensky regime is incapable of dropping its maximalist demands and being realistic even when Russia offers them a really good deal.
The western left are scared of collective violent action. Individualism is a real fuck.
