EU is as violent and genocidal as Russia, that's my entire point. Europe will genocide Palestinians, invade Iraqis, leave migrants to die in the Mediterranean, bomb Libya and Yugoslavia, and maintain troops in its colonies in Africa. By that logic, Russia can't negotiate with the EU.
Thing is: the alternative to diplomacy is WORLD WAR THREE. I do not want to die in the frontlines or in nuclear apocalypse. So you should be doing all you fucking can to prevent these things.
False dichotomy. The options aren't "peace" or "WORLD WAR THREE".
There's a third option, where Russia decides on "War" against the EU, and the EU says "Annex me harder, Daddy".
That third option is the worst of the three. It's also the option you are advocating.
The EU, as well as Russia, is a nuclear power. There isn't a possibility of total defeat of either side in a conflict because of the availability of nuclear weapons. There is no possibility of EU being invaded, seemingly losing against a country with 1/3rd the population and 1/5th the economic output, and just accepting gracefully the defeat. Nuclear weapons ensure that those things don't happen, sadly they don't ensure that we don't suffer a nuclear apocalypse.
And yes, I'd rather not die in nuclear apocalypse, idk about you but you seem rather eager
