The Fracturing World Order & Rise of CRINK: Stephen Walt

[@joshuapaul2022]

The war is lost by Ukraine. Before the latest offensive that proved to be an epic unmitigated disaster Zaluzhny said in The Economist interview: "I need 300 tanks, 600-700 ifvs, 500 Howitzers. Then, I think it is completely realistic to get to the lines of February 23rd." He got what he was begging for, lost it along with 90 000 of hapless Ukrainian cannon fodder and there is nothing to show for it. Yeah, basically this war is a story how media hype obsessed Zelenskyy and his minions traded 450 000 lives of hapless Ukrainian cannon fodder for Russian artillery rounds . It was a mistake of a monumental proportion. Meanwhile Zelenskyy and his minions new propaganda ploy for internal consumption got even weirder. They allege that it was just a virtual offensive, a psyop to confuse Russians as if endless cemeteries of hapless Ukrainian conscripts across Ukraine didn't exist. "Wake up, guys! It was just a psyop!"

Tip for interviewer. Try and pretend you're not a robot reading from a textbook. When Walt starts off his answers with, "Boy", he's telling you to ease off on the autistic techno jargon and 3-questions-in-one, questions.
