I don't think Putin can afford to admit that the war hasn't been a mistake&stop the war he cannot win.This’ll mean the end of his power.He needs a war that lasts- lasts until the end of his life

Is Putin ready to stop the war?That is the wrong question
The right question is:Can Putin stop the war?⤵️

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing
