    If you’re “settling” a land you cannot be a native. That’s like saying Americans are natives.

    Also I’m referring to the EU and US aka the other whites that matter in this conflict since they’re the only ones that have the power to

    2. Actually stop this by refusing to sell more weapons
    3. Use global pressure to begin peace talks.
