PETER HITCHENS: Spare me the hand-wringing over Ukraine

The recent Ukraine peace talks have sparked a debate about the unbreakable rule that no country can change another nation's borders or government by force. However, the author argues that there is no such rule and provides examples of countries changing borders and governments without facing consequences. The author also discusses historical events such as the Yalta appeasement, the Yugoslav wars, and the Good Friday Agreement in Northern Ireland, highlighting the complexities and contradictions in international relations. The article concludes by suggesting that President Zelensky of Ukraine should learn from past examples and recognize that he is not the first to give 'land for peace.'
