    I’m sorry, but that’s beyond delusional. LPR and DPR already control all of the east, and more regions are separating as we speak. Whatever survives of western Ukraine will be a small landlocked state that will owe untold billions to the west meaning that it will be forever bankrupt.

    This will also bankrupt US which has already committed billions and will now do lend/lease which will obviously never going to be paid back. As European economies continue to crash, US will likely be forced to financially support their allies in Europe as well. Meanwhile, US economy is already shrinking and we’re seeing shortages of everything, including essential items like baby formula.

    Ukraine has no more arms production capacity, which means they can’t replace what they’ve already lost. They lost control over the airspace early on, and Russia has been bombing their weapon supplies this whole time.

    Western weapons don’t come anywhere close to replacing what was lost. On top of that, it’s a hodge podge amalgamation of different weapons all needing different training, and their own maintenance. If Ukraine could not win with the cohesive army they started with, there is certainly no chance of winning with random stuff that NATO sends them now.

    Meanwhile, latest Pentagon briefing states that Russia has majority of their combat power available to them. They’re referring to the combat power Russia started with.

    There is absolutely no scenario where Ukraine can win this war. There was a real possibility to negotiate peace a month ago, but when it looked like negotiations might actually succeed then US and UK stepped in and told Ukraine to stop negotiating. Now Ukraine will pay the price of taking this advice.
