"First They Came" by Pastor Martin NiemΓΆller (1946)
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me

Moscow warns of βprovocationsβ ahead of Putin-Trump meeting β POLITICO
https://www.politico.eu/article/moscow-warns-of-provocations-ahead-of-putin-trump-meeting/
It is very simple for Russia to end this war of aggression. Go back to the borders of 2014, borders that Russia previously agreed to and has broken. Also damages of this war and war crimes cannot be waved away.
And good luck with that, then.
