Russia must end its brutal invasion of Ukraine. War cannot provide any gain or security for Russia. The war is claiming thousands of lives and forcing millions of Ukrainians to flee their homes. The war carries a heavy financial cost on everyone, including the Russian people.Editorial: Congress must move swiftly to enact oversight over Ukrainian war chest
There is nothing to be gained from continued warfare in Ukraine. Russia should withdraw its troops from Ukraine. After the withdrawal, a demilitarized area could be set up along the border with Ukraine to bolster peace. Such a zone could be similar to the Rush-Bagot Pact that disarmed American and British warships on the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain after the War of 1812. The Rush-Bagot agreement was the foundation of the peaceful border that exists between the U.S. and Canada.
The United States and Russia, which possess about 90 percent of the world’s 13,000 nukes, should reduce arsenals. A treaty reducing the number of both nations’ nukes from the thousands into the hundreds would be a major step for global peace. Since that time there has only been limited progress on reducing nukes, far below what is needed. The New START Treaty is still in effect between Russia and the United States, but it needs a replacement that goes further with disarmament. Both nations’ security would be greatly improved with a new treaty.
