Do you agree with US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth that it is unrealistic to expect Ukraine to return to its pre-2014 borders?

First, there is no need to talk about “pre-2014 borders.”

And Ukraine then can decide at any time — when they are ready — to pursue that.

There were 1994 U.S. assurances to defend Ukrainian territorial integrity, in exchange to Ukraine giving up its world’s 3rd largest nuclear arsenal.

Why do people hate Nickelback so much? What makes them different from other popular bands like Linkin Park, Green Day, etc.? Is it just because they're Canadian or what?

Like, if the borders are fluid and any country can just disregard the international laws and simply grab what they can, then why shouldn’t Ukraine strive for that?

And force genocidal invaders like Russia respect the international laws.

Putin signed the border treaty in January 2003 (and ratified it in April 2004), which Russia is now in breach, after announcing 5 regions of Ukraine “annexed”.

Why can't my adopted sister accept she is not part of my family because she isn't related? Why can't she stop calling my parents mum and dad?

If Ukraine shouldn’t strive to reclaim its 1991 internationally recognized borders, then probably it should strive for its 1918 borders, which were even larger, including several regions that are now part of Russia.

There is also a Ukrane-Russia border treaty of 2003, signed by Vladimir Putin himself.

At the Munich Security Conference, the U.S. chief of defence Hegseth announced that Ukraine's return to pre-2014 borders would be “unrealistic” and would only “prolong war.”

How good do you sing and how do you know this?

There are internationally recognised borders of Ukraine, since 1991.

Or: we should all decide to live in the world order where the borders are set.
