If Ukraine is able to replace or recover damaged vehicles why is Zelensky still asking for more tanks (in Switzerland right now)? I thought the sanctions were going to trigger massive inflation and unrest in the Russian economy and their desire to support the war would disappear. I thought the Russians were out of ammunition last year and now they’re bombing relentlessly. I though their morale was so low they were going to capitulate when this attack happened, yet their first main line of defensive trenches hasn’t yet been touched. If Ukraine morale is high and Russian morale is low why are Ukrainians surrendering or refusing to fight on the front lines?
Austin told us all that he had high expectations for the counter-offensive two days before the Pentagon leaks revealed there were actually low expectations. Why believe the boy who already cried wolf, especially when his words don’t align with reality? There’s been too much lying. The war is costing too much in terms of tax payer dollars and Ukrainian lives. This Biden administration is stuck is a sunk cost fallacy and needs to stop.

IvanSkooby1, Ukraine didn’t start this war, and Ukraine isn’t the one continuing it. They have to fight or they’ll lose their freedom and self-determination. Look again what happened in Bucha, where Russian forces had control.Simply rolling over and letting Russia win won’t save Ukrainian lives, it’ll cost a lot more of them.
The only way this war ends is if Russia leaves, or loses. Any alternative goes against everything the USA and the west stand for.
You said the quiet part out loud, this is a proxy war and you can’t openly admit it, lol.
Quiet part? It isn’t obviously a proxy war? If anyone could have joined the war openly, like they did pre-nukes, a lot of western countries would. Doesn’t make the war any less real for the Ukrainians, and doesn’t excuse Russia’s invasion in any way.

They stopped pretending!
Yes, this is a proxy war. The USA has enough firepower to defeat Russia in a non-nuclear battle (in which case it would be a tie) but they’re intentionally leaking weapons at a slow rate to prolong the war.
sssshhhhh
