William Taylor: “The international community should not allow that annexation to stand.”

What will really force him to stand down and to look for a way out is continued Ukrainian success on the battlefield.

He really represents them. The Ukrainian people are strong, are tough. They’re determined to be free. They’re interpreted to be independent. And he is leading that.

He is emboldened, and he has got reason to be emboldened. His military, the Ukrainian military, is now pushing the Russians back.

What normal civilized nations do is accept responsibility and try to remedy, but not the Russians.
