    If they could not win with 200 billion dollars of aid from EU and US then what they will do with 60 billion ? and it will not solve the issue of Ukraine soldier average age being 44 . Either NATO call Putins Nuclear bluff and send troops there or negotiate

      We should have sent troops 2 years ago. Average age is only high because Ukraine hasn't mobilized people under 27 yet but that can obviously change.

    Europe is losing the war. The situation in Ukraine is going very poorly. Russia clearly is winning; its economy is doing very well. The European economy, by contrast, is stalling. And as Russia makes progress in the conflict, when the Ukraine government breaks in some way, then the results for Europe will be devastating.
    The prospect of a Ukrainian collapse would cause panic in Poland, but also in Berlin and Paris, and Macron has been making crazy noises about sending troops to Ukraine, which is completely nuts. But then again, the guy is desperate and doesn't know quite how to respond. And the same kind of desperation is evident in other capitals as well.
    The U.S. really engineered this conflict. France and Britain were solidly behind U.S. efforts, but this is an American-led effort which really installed a nationalist government in Kiev, which was itching for a fight with Russia, which got one and then, followed by a full-scale military invasion in February 2022.
    The U.S. thought it would win that conflict easily. But now the conflict is going very poorly. And it turns out that the U.S. really had a very poor idea of what it was getting into. Now, the problem is that the U.S. will not suffer the consequences anywhere near to the degree the Europeans will.
    The EU’s working class is growing increasingly opposed to conflict with Russia as their economy suffers from Western imposed sanctions which saw them lose access to cheap and reliable Russian energy. The economic growth forecast for Germany, for instance, was cut down to 0.2% in 2024 from a previous projection of 1.3%, according to a recent report. Robert Habeck, Germany’s Vice-Chancellor, has said the country is performing “dramatically bad.”

    Victoria Nuland "aided" Ukraine into a war that's killed millions of people and they can't "aid" their way out of a Ukrainian defeat. The longer it goes on the smaller Ukraine will be in terms of population and land.

    Meantime, if Ukraine manages to survive until mid November, massive US support will come pouring in. Even it not, many in Europe are rising to the occasion. Slava Ukraini!
