But wars end, and someday this war will end. It may end with compromises, with some sort of “off-ramp” for Putin’s Russia, and with an essential push from the United States and its nato allies.
Но войны заканчиваются, и украинский конфликт тоже когда-нибудь будет разрешен. Он может завершиться компромиссом, некими уступками со стороны России. Возможно, урегулирование украинского кризиса начнется с подачи Соединенных Штатов и их союзников по НАТО.

"Sergeant" can fall into the category of Faux amis if you try to treat it as an equivalent of СЕРЖАНТ:
СЕРЖАНТ is unlike its apparent equivalent in the British or US militaries, because it is a very junior rank in the Russian army. The equivalent role of Western non-commissioned officers is fulfilled in the Russian military by ПРАПОРЩИК, or "warrant officer". |

informed analysis - объективный анализ
“Those who argue that the West/NATO played a precipitating role in the Ukraine tragedy are not excusing or justifying Russia’s invasion – they are raising informed analysis.” [Benjamin, 2022: 6]
Те, кто утверждает, что Запад/НАТО сыграли роль в украинской трагедии, не оправдывают и не извиняют российское вторжение — они проводят обоснованный анализ. |
Two variants of translation: "речь курицы по-киевски", or "речь киевского труса"
The Chicken Kiev speech is the nickname for a speech given by the United States president George H. W. Bush in Kiev, Ukraine, on August 1, 1991, three weeks before the Declaration of Independence of Ukraine and four months before the December independence referendum in which 92.26% of Ukrainians voted to withdraw from the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union collapsed 145 days after the speech, partially pushed by Ukraine. The address, in which Bush cautioned against "suicidal nationalism", was written by Condoleezza Rice—later Secretary of State under President George W. Bush—when she was in charge of Soviet and Eastern European affairs for the first President Bush. It outraged Ukrainian nationalists and American conservatives, with the conservative New York Times columnist William Safire calling it the "Chicken Kiev speech", named after a dish of stuffed chicken breast, in protest at what he saw as its "colossal misjudgment", weak tone and miscalculation.

"базарная баба" по-английски
Look up "fishwife" in the dictionary and it will tell you it's a monger of fish or a shrill, shrewish woman. But there is so much more.
: : In London, fish mongers were also known as "The wives of Billingsgate". according to Ackroyd, it is thought that they were descendants of devotees of the God, Belin who was worshipped there at one time. "They dressed in strong 'stuff'gowns and quilted petticoats; their hair, caps and bonnets were flattened into one in distinguishable mass upon their heads." They were also called 'fish fags'. "They smoked small pipes of tobacco, took snuff, drank gin and were known for their colourful language... A dictionary from 1736 defined a 'Billingsgate' as a scolding, impudent slut." You can almost imagine how they must have smelled. |
The line “For fools rush in where angels fear to tread” was first written by Alexander Pope in his poem An Essay on Criticism. It is used now as a proverb that means: inexperienced people jump into situations that wiser, experienced people avoid.
Putin is a dictator, but romanticizing Zelensky as if he were the hero of our times is a fool’s rush in where angels fear to tread.
