hard to see what the western strategy is at this point. None of their assumptions seem to have worked out:
1. Russia's economy did not collapse due to sanctions;
2. Putin has not been overthrown;
3. The Russian army did not collapse;
In fact, the Russians are slowly grinding forward gaining territory every day.
Hard to see how the Ukrainians achieve victory.
The only realistic outcome at this point as far as I can see is a negotiated ceasefire where the Ukrainians will have to trade land for peace.
Of course that will only happen once the US stops propping up the UKR govt and pushes for a settlement. I wonder how many more billions of dollars uncle Joe is willing to pour into this. We are at what $ 54 billions and counting?
