This whole conversation kind of assumes Putin is actually willing to accede to some sort of reasonable peace plan. Now I dont have any information one way or another, but I dont think any of you do either and are really kind of baking this in with no real insight. Last time I checked, Putin's idea of a peace treaty is Ukraine giving up a bunch of land Russia hasn't even taken, and then promising to demilitarize no matter what Russia does. Which seems like he isn't really serious.
