I welcome you sharing your views in the pleasant way you just did, I respond to you in return in a tempered way, with only my personal view and no desire to fight with you. Your opinion is noble and I do wish it would be the case; however I also do not believe Putin can be reasoned with and the agreements he would push for would be tantamount to loss of sovereignty, and subservience of a nation, which is against what we fight for in crypto (self-sovereignty).
It is my view, and my view alone that he respects might and force and that is the only way he can be dealt with.
Today a childrens' and maternity hospital was shelled and many mothers and children trapped beneath the rubble and potentially dead, even one child dying is too many and aggressors should be stopped with everything the world has, put in front of that child as defense. The world was too slow to act and thus forces advanced too far into the country and all of those mothers and children died.
Ukraine accused Russia of bombing a children’s hospital and maternity ward in the besieged Ukrainian port city of Mariupol, trapping children and others under the rubble in what Ukraine’s president called an “atrocity”.
“It is horrifying to see the type of, the barbaric use of military force to go after innocent civilians in a sovereign country,” Press Secretary Jen Psaki told reporters.

We are not barbarians, we should not sacrifice even one child, so the rest of the world can feel a little bit safer that Putin won't escalate further, he needs to be disarmed before the entire world can ever feel safe again, otherwise there will always be this latent threat. I don't believe he will be disarmed by peaceful protest, he simply doesn't care.
Military might would have in my opinion stopped his advances at right the border and kept civilians safe in the backlines, yes there is the risk of nuclear escalation but it might come to that anyway. Putin is dying and has no fear as he has nothing to lose.
Zelensky said Western countries would eventually make a no-fly zone, but only once "World War Three" had begun, and by then "it will be too late".
He added: "Believe me, if it's prolonged this way, you will see... they will close the sky but we will lose millions of people."

With all due respect, my opinion in this matter is neutral. Speaking of war regardless of who started it, there must be a reason why it happened. I just thought that the war would cause loss and suffering between the two sides. Therefore, the path of peace is the best way and how? I don't even know. Maybe there should be an initiative from the third party state involved, which can bridge, facilitate and bring about peace. Hopefully. ✌️🙏
