I'm sure the tens of thousand of dead russian troops and all those displaced russian families prefer that to just gaining trust with others, resulting in the end of support for Ukraine and a quick surrender. Apparently getting people killed is better than doing everything you can to end end the conflict.
Russia literally did everything possible to try and avoid this conflict for 8 years prior. Ending the conflict without achieving the objectives would be sheer idiocy as anybody who is not a complete imbecile would understand.
Everything except building trust, it seems.
And who said anything about not achieving objectives? Unless the objective is to get people, both Russians and Ukrainians killed, I guess.
"Building trust" is an abstraction that covers many many activities. The fact that Russia did many things that could have built trust but didn't is completely lost on you, so you have no ability to question WHY trust wasn't built as a result of the actions taken. Because if you DID question why, you would see that Ukraine's transition to a right-wing Euro-centric government entailed it being Russophobic and part of the European project to dominate Russia.
