Is there already fear that the sanctions "overdid it" and instead of pressuring Putin, they're going to make the situation way more volatile and existential for him?

Was there ever one after he decided to invade the whole country? Seems like once he made that call, there is no turning back.

As JFK did in '62, you find some way to make a concession, so your opponent can claim a win. Ukraine abjuring any future NATO membership might do it, I don't know. But you need to find something. As it was, Krushchev got pushed out, so not easy.

A palace coup might be a viable option. Let's see how much capital is lost in the Russian market this week. Oligarchs can't garch without money.

There is always a path to de-escalation.

Maybe not one where both Zelensky and Putin leave alive

I like the formulation: it’s Putin’s fault but everyone’s problem. Unfortunately very true.

Poutine’s death will de-escalate everything faster than you can imagine

If the assumption is that Putin is in too deep, and will be overthrown unless he wins this war (which is questionable), I don't see how anyone could have prevented this outcome other than him. The idea that NATO was unwilling to reasonably negotiate is just wrong.

What he was essentially asking for was for us to concede everything he wanted and get nothing nothing in return, or he was going to invade Ukraine.
