If you think this is blaming the victim, there is nothing I can do. But it certainly makes me wonder what your thinking process is like. I just stated a fact, I am not blaming anyone, where do you get that from? Or perhaps, like me, English is not your native language?

War in Ukraine
Russia invaded Ukraine from east and from Belarus in the north and from the south. This special operation is a brutal act of war. Ukraine the victim had 2 choices - 1 going back to the soviet union days 2 - fight and hope to get help from the west.
While the west has their own interest, it did not make Ukraine fight. The horrible memories from the soviet union make the Ukrainian fight for their freedom. Russia is the attacker and Ukraine is the victim. We all wish the west will help more but the blame is on Russia only.
Frankly I do not know the inner workings of this conflict, I have been reading some of your posts, like you I try to read both sides. This war is different from others in that in this case the aggressor would be Russia not the West as has been the case in most recent wars, so the Western press is even more biased than usual. I do not believe what I read from the press on either side, not even at 50%. That being said, I do not hear anyone talking about peace, Russia says it will stick to its plan whatever that is, and Ukraine just asks for more weapons, and the West is full of rhetoric. Only two ways to stop this war, either sit down and talk or NATO goes in and becomes an active part in the war, this is where I think some people want this to go. Winter will be very difficult, well I live in Honduras where cold is when the temp goes down to 15 degrees. For those further up North things will be extremely difficult. And, unfortunately after whatever is done happens, it will still end in a truce, which could have happened months ago. It is not the people my friend, it is the leaders who are the problem.
