I mean, they just did. So, yeah, apparently they totally can.

Such ultimatums are unacceptable to Russia. This kind of language doesn’t work. You can’t speak to Russia that way

Grow up.

Or what? Another feeble nuclear threat?

Unless your name is Israel, yes they can.

TBH this whole "you don't want peace" theatrics is silly, reminds me of kids games when we were 5 or so. If Russia wanted peace, they'd stop offensive, simple as that. And if they didn't in three years, why would they do it now? Because west is threatening them with more sanctions? (OTOH why is west not implementing those sanctions already is also silly). That's even sillier. If west seriously wanted peace, it'd seriously started to support Ukraine with property weapons and shit. To create balance or even supremacy. That is the language Russia understands.
