      If "experts" actually knew the truth about the world and told people, then the world would react in a way that they don't expect or want. As a result, experts have to say the wrong things even if they know the truth. This is why they can never be trusted.

      Do you think we exist at the "End of History" where countries will not attack other countries unless provoked? When Putin laments the fall of the Soviet Union, he's talking about the borders. The borders of the USSR helped protect the core of Russia. The core of Russia is Moscow and the area known as the Grand Duchy of Moscow during the Late Middle Ages. Because Napoleon and the Austrian man invaded Russia from the North European plain, Russia must have Eastern Europe and ideally Central Europe as a buffer zone. As recently as 1990, Russia was protected as far West as the Elbe River in East Germany.

Russia invading Ukraine did not happen in a vacuum or just because Putin was evil. They are doing something that any country would of done in the same circumstances. If we had the equivalent happen in Tijuana today there wouldn't be a Tijuana.
      They even had something called the minsk accords to prevent the "special operation" but the west kicked it back. This beyond any evil that I know of. The west specifically the usa knew all along that hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians would die but the don't care as long as Russia also spills blood and treasure.

      The invasion into Kursk was a big political blow for Putin and painfully forced him to open up another front at the cost of efforts elsewhere. There was never that much value in Kursk territory for the Ukranians other than turning it into another meat grinder, one that Putin can't just simply ignore.

      No not at all. They were briefly "winning" when they successfully repelled the initial invasion around Kiev and managed to push Russia our of Kherson.
      Since then it's been mainly stalemate, but they had already lost a lot of territory. After Zelensky moved troops to invade into Russia, while perhaps a propaganda victory - many westeners think it was a great sign that Ukraine was winning - it is tactically a blunder to any war strategist. Zelensky pushed for this against the advice of his military leadership because propaganda victories for Ukraine and external support are the only ways Ukraine can control the narrative in the West and keep their munitions/forces adequately supplied. So it was vital for the war effort, but it came at a tactical cost.
      The tactical cost: Imagine you are fighting a defensive war with fewer guns, ammo, everything than your opponent. To preserve your strength and to be able to attrit your enemy as much as possible, you want to limit the size of your front line. Think Sparta at Thermopylae - if the front is only 100 feet wide 300 men will do a pretty good job defending it against 1500 invaders, but if the front is 3000 feet wide you're in trouble.
      Zelensky moved his best troops from the front lines to invade into Russia and the consequences were:
      1. Front line is now larger, which stretches Ukraine's forces thinner.
      2. Ukraine must spend resources occupying enemy land.
      3. Russia chose now to redeploy resources to Kursk and instead focus on the East which Zelensky had just drastically weakened.
      4. Russia has taken more land in the time span since Zelensky's Kursk initiative than it had in the previous 2 years, and the gains seem to be accelerating.
      5. The troops sent to Russia were themselves pushed back, so Ukraine holds only about half of the territory they took from Russia, and much of that territory is dangerously close to being encircled by Russia. Essentially Kursk created a bubble of Ukranian troops that is surpunded by nearly all sides by Russian troops and which Russia is more capable of attacking.
      Since the Kursk maneuver, things have really gotten bleak for Ukraine. And the Trump presidency is the nail in the coffin.
      Support for Ukraine pushes NATO members to adjust their budgets and collectively lose about 2% more of their total national domestic budgets that they normally would have. Poland has started spending 4%. Unless you can raise those taxes - which is very hard to do and deeply unpopular - that comes from funding for national essentials, healthcare, roads, government services.
      That means that supporting Ukraine has a tangible cost on all NATO members. And eventually, everyone has a cost/benefit level where they decide it is no longer worth the investment.
      That seems to be what is happening with Ukraine.
      Russia's economy is also in shambles though, and the good news is they clearly aren't in good shape to invade any other countries after this for a while. But they're definitely going to end up "winning" this war.

      I think you agree that Russia is in no position to be a threat to NATO or the West in any legitimate sense for quite some time, outside of nuclear weapons threats. It can't take Ukraine - so NATO would wipe them off the map.
      I agree if Russia was a huge threat then funding the war would weaken them. But they are not a huge threat. That's what the war has shown us. They were a paper tiger. So it makes sense countries have lost interest in funding it - it's a needless cost that absolutely is tangible and that money could be spent elsewhere on higher priority items - mainly domestic issues that are extremely heightened at the moment.
      With security guaranteed, why continue to fund a war that just kills thousands of people on both sides who don't want to be a part of it, when you could arbitrate, bring peace, Ukraine would still exist but just lose border territory where Russians were a large portion of the demographics anyways, and the West would have saved lives and money for themselves.

    Sure the Kursk offensive had a good start, but ever since then Ukraine has been slowly losing ground there AND there were hardly any Russian troops diverted from the Donbas to allow for a Ukrainian counteroffensive. If anything Russia has continued their gains in the Donbas despite the Kursk offensive and Ukraine has struggled mightily in the east still. It was mostly a PR victory for Ukraine.
    Ultimately this war isn't looking good for Ukraine despite heavy losses on both sides, especially since Russia has a massive industrial capability and Ukraine has to rely mostly on the West for weapons and arty shells and Western aid is slowing down.

      I'm sure in years to come we'll learn more about the true goal of the "Kursk" offensive. However, it's looking more like a PR stunt to rally wavering Western support and a desperate attempt to draw Russian attention away from the Donbas - where things actually matter. That it failed to draw Russian forces away has been well established. Now with the arrival of Trump the PR points simply no longer matter. What matters is that previously impregnable Ukrainian towns/cities such as Vuhledar, Chasiv Yar and Kupiansk have fallen or are now under serious threat despite the heroic efforts of Ukrainian soldiers. And that's before you get to the dramatic success the Russians have had on their way to Pokrosvk and other advances that now occur daily across the entire front.
      Ukraine cannot win this war and every day it continues Ukraine will lose what little bargaining power it is able to bring to the table.

    They used the same one with the UK before the US joined WW2, and the UK only finished paying off that debt in 2020.
    They stand to make too much money to let Ukraine fall, on top of all the security considerations

    It's a war of attrition now where Ukraine can't possibly win. It's a sad fact but sooner or later Ukraine will fold under Russian pressure. The latter has more troops and equipment that the West can provide. It sucks but that's the harsh reality. It won't be a forever war as Ukraine can't equal Russian power. I don't like this analysis either, I had hoped Ukraine could conduct productive counter attacks but it hasn't and will not happen.

Most of the west are supporting Ukraine as they would rather fight there war through the Ukrainian military and keep feeding them weapons.

    Department of State website says he served 30 years as an officer before retiring in 2006. He's been out of action for nearly 2 decades and he began his service as an officer in the 1970's. He served, and we should be grateful, but war is an academic interest for this general. He has never led men in battle in any war unless it was one of those bushfires where the enemy fought with outdated, improvised weapons.
