Putin is trained to manipulate, blackmail, extort, and control. Putin has no real military or civilian economic experience and is now just a thieving authoritarian Russian mob leader of a third world kleptocracy, who still has delusions that he is an 18th century Czar of an 'imperialistic" Russia, or of his beloved old Soviet "empire". Putin is an old desperate fool, who has made delusional decisions, that have wrecked Russia militarily and economically, who is losing. Putin's last hope seems to be Trump and a divided west. But Putin may have already gone past the point of "no return" from the consequences of Putin's own delusional incompetence in Russia itself.

I say yes it takes time but just remember back to WW2 , KOREA , VIETNAM , AFGHANISTAN we made sure those material needs were taken care of , no if Europe and America wanted to they could have massively ramped up it's industrial capacity to provide everything Ukraine needed to push Russia back to its borders .

The signs are obvious; the strategy was always clear. Everybody KNEW that Russia was going to win this conflict. (If not wholly, at least a LOT of Ukrainian territory). What NATO wanted, was to see Russian forces severely depleted, and to gather tangible evidence of Russian military capabilities. The “trickle in“ of equipment and support was carefully calculated to be…”almost sufficient”.Trump’s return to presidential office was NEVER considered, as a 2nd Biden term was assumed to be guaranteed. It was an intelligence windfall and strategic boost with NO NATO blood shed, only Ukrainian. This is not my assertion, but that of MANY military analysts who offered their insights throughout this entire Russian campaign.

[@seanniemeyer5437]

It will be interesting to see how this plays out over the next 2 years.

[@EdwardThatch-ee7yx]

NATO has proven itself ineffectual and weak in the face of clear threats. From the very start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, decisive action could have altered the trajectory of the war. The dithering by the U.S. and Germany, both of whom hesitated on supplying long-range missiles, has allowed Russia’s aggression to fester unchecked. While Britain and France grasped the severity early on and pushed to support Ukraine, they were hindered by American control over key guidance systems, limiting effective deployment. The inability-or unwillingness-of the U.S. and Germany to act decisively has done more than prolong Ukraine’s suffering. It has emboldened rogue nations and tyrants worldwide. Iran and its proxies, unchallenged, now openly target Israel; North Korea sends troops to aid Russia, likely trading missile tech in exchange for God knows what. Meanwhile, China is eyeing the South China Sea and Taiwan with a new brazenness, testing global resolve in what could lead to a full-blown crisis. The Doomsday Clock is ticking perilously close to midnight, and it is under the watch of Joe Biden and Olaf Scholz that the world inches toward catastrophe. Their hesitation and incompetence are putting global stability on the line, and we are left vulnerable to their poor judgement.

@@blafonovision4342 Budapest Memorandum of 1994, in which Ukraine agreed to relinquish its nuclear arsenal in exchange for security assurances from the United States, the United Kingdom, and Russia. Background • Post-Soviet Ukraine: Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, Ukraine inherited a significant nuclear arsenal, which included around 1,700 strategic nuclear warheads and various delivery systems (missiles and aircraft). The Budapest Memorandum (1994) • Parties Involved: Ukraine, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Russia. • Commitments: • Nuclear Disarmament: Ukraine committed to eliminating its nuclear weapons and joining the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) as a non-nuclear weapon state. • Security Assurances: The US, UK, and Russia provided assurances that they would respect Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. They pledged to refrain from the threat or use of force against Ukraine and to consult with one another in the event of threats to Ukraine’s security. Implementation • Disarmament Process: By 1996, Ukraine completed the removal of its nuclear warheads, transferring them to Russia for dismantlement. Ukraine also eliminated the delivery systems capable of deploying these weapons, such as bombers and missiles. Impact • Security Concerns: Many in Ukraine later felt that the security assurances provided by Russia were not upheld, especially after the annexation of Crimea in 2014 and the ongoing conflict in Eastern Ukraine. • Contemporary Views: The situation has led to significant debates within Ukraine about the decision to disarm and the effectiveness of international agreements. Some Ukrainian leaders and analysts argue that the loss of nuclear capabilities has left the country vulnerable. Summary The agreement between the UK, USA, and Russia regarding Ukraine’s nuclear weapons was aimed at reducing the proliferation of nuclear arms while providing security assurances to Ukraine. However, subsequent events have raised questions about the reliability of these assurances and the consequences of Ukraine’s disarmament.

A militarily weak Europe in many ways suited the USA in the past. As much as Europe didn't spend up on hardware, they spent up on USA consumer goods and pretty much stayed in Europe and was compliant to what the USA administration wanted. It led to a great period of prosperity for both the USA and Europe. If the USA pulls out of NATO and Russia gets what it wants in Ukraine, get ready for 20 years of conflict, not just in Europe, but in Asia as well. The cost will be trillions and nukes will be everywhere. Worse than the cold war.

But the whole point is that RUSSIA is NOT 'down to its last few thousand fighting troops'. He's got an untapped supply of North Koreans, and he's still got millions of Russians he can call on for the 'meat-grinder', which is proving to be a highly successful strategy, if slow going. No one in Russia is going to protest. He's seen to that in 25 years of being in power. If Russia's military is in such dire straits, why doesn't NATO (or individual members of NATO) supply the weaponry and matériel to deal him a deathblow. Instead of waiting on the sidelines and mouthing platitudes about how weak Putin is. Like this guy and all the other so-called experts on Times Radio.

[@rockbutcher]

You are parroting your party line. The US only carries the burden for itself, they don't give money to other countries to fund their armies.

[@krakken-]

European countries have committed more than twice as much aid to Ukraine as the US has. Actual allocated European also surpasses the amount allocated by the US. And as a percentage of GDP, European countries and the EU overall spend more on Ukraine than the US. Maybe you are referring to military aid, where the US does contribute more (and much of that obsolete inventory weapons systems). But that is not all of the aid by far.

[@МногоХочешьНаглыйГугл]

That's EZ. Cause Poland is bankrolled by daddy US as border country.

[@AnotherPointOfView944]

Its about % of GDP. Not absolute $. Most of Europe pay the same % as the US as a % of GDP.

[@GunterKrolock]

5 percent of Polish GDP in absolute numbers is still far less than 3% GDP out of Germany or France. Plus Germany and France are big netto payers into the EU whereas Poland is a huge net receiver of EU funds. This makes it much easier for Poland to spend a fortune on weaponry while its economy is partially subsidised by the EU!
