not sure why you are facepalming, I live in a neighboring country to Ukraine and a lot of people here according to polls think that Ukraine should just give up Crimea and accept peace.

From the rest of the world's point of view, Ukraine had already accepted it's loss in 2014.

It was only when Russia went "well we'll have the rest of the country as well then!" that all the other countries decided to help out. Because Europe's been here before. Nobody stops after just one country. It's like Jaffa Cakes. You just keep going until there's none left.

That's the frying pan saying "at least I'm not as bad as the fire!"
