This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

The off ramp involves Putin being assassinated.
Or blowing his own brains out.
Which would solve the near term "getting out of Ukraine" problem. It would not solve the Russia problem when the Next Dictator In steps up.
No, you don't "keep Crimea".
You lose wars, you lose shit you took illegally years ago.
You concede and you pay reparations. Or you are completely annihilated.
If Putin wants a Russian base in Crimea, he can do what the US does: negotiate and pay for it.
But Ukraine isn't going to negotiate, anymore, after his invasion and destruction of their cities. He's done.
We’ll see. I’d bet that any brokered deal that ends this war includes Russia keeping Crimea.
Six months ago I could see your point. At this stage of the war, it appears that Russia doesn’t hold many cards to bring to the negotiations.
Only card they really have is the Nuke card. It’s an unfortunately large card.
I don’t see Crimea remaining under Russian control at this point. Putin continues to saber rattle with Nukes. That will not stop the inevitable.
Even if Ivan does toss some tacticals or more, that will not stop the inevitable, but rather bring forth Bigger Dogs of War.
BTW, I am not minimizing what Nukes would mean. Not in any way. We had yellow signs identifying shelters in my childhood and teachers telling us from time to time how to hide from windows in case of attack.
What energy source powers those chargers?
You've displayed your daftness ad nauseam, but even for you, this is weak.
When was the last coal or nuclear power plant built? To answer your question, when EVs become the majority of vehicles the chargers will mostly be powered be renewable electric sources.
Exactly - where is our development of safe nuclear power today?
Propaganda? This is 90% of a political party here in America.

Good to see our efforts to be cleaner are basically worthless.
Since they are dirty, why can’t we be dirty? OMG.
You obviously were not around before the Clean Air and Water Acts were enacted.j
The electric light will never replace the reliable, clean burning fat of whales.
Is this handle for real? Is this a Pissy Pants handle?
The bulk of electricity in Iowa comes from the wind, and the overall percentage from renewables rises every year across the country.
AGAIN: US has enough wind capacity for all of it.
Had that infrastructure been worked on since the 1990s, you'd be running 100% on clean energy here.
Problem is that the Saudis, Exxon, Russia etc hold tens of trillions in "stranded assets" when that happens. They will easily spend hundreds of billions to maintain a 100:1 to 1000:1 ROI in protecting those assets.
Crazy person to climb that.

Biden needs to 'back off' Armageddon language, work to get Russia to the table with Ukraine: Mullen
Biden needs to "back off" his warning that Putin may use nuclear weapons in the invasion of Ukraine and work toward a diplomatic solution, Mike Mullen said on "This Week"
If Russia uses nukes, they definitely aren't keeping Crimea.
Or their Black Sea fleet.
Or much of anything.

Weird
"Tough talk" like this was cheered on incessantly between 2016 and 2020...
