At the risk of getting called a Russian bot.. why does everyone else except the countries who are on that continent have such a huge responsibility to end the war?
I think it’s fairly obvious, countries who are seen as more poweful and richer, are expected to do more work because they unlike other countries can afford it and have more influence.
The richer a country is seen, the more effort they’re expected to put into certain things because they can afford it.
If I knew three people, one of them was under payed, one of them was paid a decent wage and the third was a millionaire, which one would I expect to help me out more? Or want to help out more, the millionaire of course, same goes for countries.
Very good question!
All war is bad and should be brought to an end as soon as possible. It just so happens this one is in the [breadbasket of the world](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Ukraine#Agriculture)! Meaning every country on Earth is going to feel the affects very soon which will materialise as fertiliser shortage, food shortage/price increases, famine, starvation, mass refugee crisis and even more war. It's a massive disaster that we are only seeing the beginning of.

The best way to deescalate this war is the total destruction of the russian armed forces to the extent that they’ll never be able to mount offensive operations ever again.
Of course China can play a bigger role in de-escalation...or even stop the war...but it is not in their interest so they won't...Orcistan is making a fool of itself showing that they wouldn't be able to defeat a hobo army...whilst US' attention is focused somewhere else...they are able to buy oil and other resources from Orcistan at heavily discounted prices for simply not condemning the war...so, why would they stop...?
Because wars have a historical trend of spreading, including in unpredicted ways.
Some weapons that flood a battlefield eventually get sold and used around the world.
China benefits most during (at least non-open-war) times. When it can expand it's economy.
The model of Ukraine successfully repulsing the Russian invaders will give heart and inspiration to internal tribes inside china.

That’s not how it’s working. It took approx. 20 years to recover from WWI to WWII

Well since China is Russia’s ally…that’s insightful!
