>The Russia-Ukraine war has all signs to lead the world into world war 3 if its not stopped.

Russia can withdraw today and all the fighting would stop immediately.

>All these sabotage acts will continue across the globe to drag more countries into the mix.

Russia can choose to stop these sabotage acts immediately.

>What is the UN Security council doing?. Nobody hears their efforts to stop anything

Russia doesn't need anyone's permission to stop the war immediately.

(But also, Russia is a founder and permanent member of the UNSC, so...)

The US has invaded 3 countries this year so far. Seems many countries could choose to stop doing things if they wanted to.

		Sadly, if WWIII happened now the US probably won't be the good guys.

I think it would be wonderful if people read this:

The russian disinfo was flagged so I'm posting it here.

Full disclaimer: I'm in contact with the NAFO leadership. ;)

The problem being, of course, that if they stop any of what they're doing, in their own heads, they're no longer Russia.

And to them, that's a bad thing.

What you‘re saying, critically, is only half the story. The fight was between Russia backed separatists and the Ukraine gov. The shelling went both ways. This has been endlessly discussed and investigated by the OHCHR.

		Separatists who took up arms to protect their homes, language, and lives. The shelling went both ways, yes. And my point above is that it's not going to stop just because one side suddenly flees. Unless you're talking about all Russian supporting / speaking citizens fleeing their homes, we'd be right back where we were pre-2022. But worse, because the European hawks would be emboldened to antagonize even more. Possibly a move to full NATO membership, for example.

Russia's control of Donbas is part of the war. It didn't start in 2022. If Russia withdrew, including from the Donbas and Crimea, the war would stop.
