Saudi Arabia doesn't have the power to dick around with human rights halfway across the globe.

I too enjoy reading Western media instead of experiencing things first-hand.

You do realize that Tibetan independence was never recognized by any country, right? Not even the British.

Do you understand Tibetan history up to that point? At least it's no longer a serfdom system (which Tibetan advocates will say was equal because of the one-in-a-million chance that one of the peasants can become the Dalai Lama and that everyone was totally happy because everyone was working towards bettering Buddhism). How many Tibetan refugees do you know who experienced serfdom?

Why would Ford care when it can just petition the US government to block the sale of Chinese cars? It's the same thing Boeing did to block Bombardier sales in the US.

If you feel like giving China a domestic supply of O&G so they can switch their coal plants to gas ones, be my guest.

That's been the single greatest contributor to reduced emissions in North America and Europe over the past few decades.

Tell me you haven't read the Communist Manifesto without telling me you haven't read the Communist Manifesto.

China is moving faster on renewables than every other country. China is moving faster on EVs than every other country.

Who's not changing?

Then why have a peace blueprint in the first place? By your description, Ukraine has no reason whatsoever to ask for peace. Why propose a peace blueprint?

By definition, that is pro-vigilantism

So... What leverage does Ukraine have to make that happen?

That's not the point. The point is whether Ukraine's peace plan makes sense in the context of the current situation in Ukraine. It doesn't, and frankly it's an indication that Ukraine really doesn't want peace right now because they dont think they have the leverage to demand a fair peace.
