    I'm not sure if that would satisfy all the countries who have sanctioned Russia. They'll want a full withdrawal or the Russian economy will stay slowly dying.

    My understanding of it is that there isn't really a cohesive right vs wrong narrative possible, because both sides have committed atrocities and neither side seems particularly in the right.
