    I’m so fucking done with the west leading Ukraine on and giving them a bone when the front is at a breaking point. It’s clear that if Ukraine wants to win this war, it won’t be on the west’s terms. They are in a position where they can only rely on themselves.

    This nonsense of a drop of aid after irreplaceable casualties/losses isn’t sustainable.

      Sure, but nobody is actually obligated to defend Ukraine since there’s no alliance. And that’s largely what this war is over, since Russia wants to keep it that way.

      I think the West should nut up and join the war to crush Russia or stop all aid, but this non-committal assistance isn’t really helping anything and just prolonging the war.
