Calling for diplomacy in a war of aggression where the aggressor has claimed annexation of the defender's territory means... what?

What is there to negotiate?

The US is regularly engaged in diplomacy with Russia. Our secretary of defense and chairman of the joint chiefs just met with their Russian counterparts.

Diplomacy is happening. That doesn't mean peace can be negotiated yet. Unless the commenter thinks Ukraine should surrender, it is unlikely peace is going to be realistic anytime soon.

You're all for diplomacy, except during wars.
