A retirement by “President” Putin would not only help Ukraine and the free world, but would assist the Russian people and the Russian military personnel who are being killed and/or wounded by the brave, courageous, wise to Putin, Ukrainians.
Unity in all free nations is all-important to FORCE Mr. Putin to retire. It MUST be his ONLY viable alternative. In other words, retire or DEATH!
I personally deeply believe in non-violence, but it is quite obvious that Mr. Putin does NOT. Even Gandhi wrote that hunger strikes don’t work against tyrants. Mr. Putin has been more and more and more of a dictator “for” over 20 years. Slow sanctions cost lives/property/livelihoods to so many. Simultaneously sanctions and the forced retirement should be pursued FULL FORCE!
