In all honesty, I don’t think the West cares if Ukraine wins or loses. Dumping tens of billions in weapons into Ukraine was not about ensuring a Ukrainian victory, it was about turning what Russia hoped thought would be a quick and easy victory with minimal loses into a long, drawn out meatgrinder of a war which would cost Russia billions of dollars and leave their military decimated and unable to mount a serious offensive war for years to come. At that the West and NATO has been successful beyond their wildest dreams..

Not so sure about that. The ruble has never been stronger against the USD, Russia is naming it's own oil price & getting paid in rubles from NATO countries, the BRIC nations have a new prominence, the US economy is in shambles with a Demented fool as president, a man Republicans refuse to question while making powerful. I've never seen anything like what's happening domestically, yet many conservatives sport Ukrainian flags and divert their gaze at pending food shortages and power outages. If only we we could unify and concentrate, but I've lost hope.
