The Ukraine is losing and there are no more weapons to give them. Already the US has wasted $140 Billion and promised another $44 Billion to this lost cause. There will never be any accountability for billions in taxpayer dollars given to the Deep State crime hub in the Ukraine. George Soros has to be delighted, as are Biden, Pelosi, Schumer and all other corruptocrats with financial crimes in the Ukraine.

December 15 interview with the head of the Ukrainian military, General Zaluzhny, published in the Economist.

Interview hi-lights below. Zaluzhny says Russia is preparing a big offensive and then describes problems getting what the Ukraine needs for the 'heavier battles' to come.

"Our second strategic task is to get ready for this war which can happen in February. To be able to wage a war with fresh forces and reserves. Our troops are all tied up in battles now, they are bleeding. They are bleeding and are being held together solely by courage, heroism and the ability of their commanders to keep the situation under control. "

"I can calculate, based on the task at hand, what kind of resource is needed to build combat capability.

We are talking about the scale of World War One…that is what Antony Radakin [Britain’s top soldier] told me. When I told him that the British Army fired a million shells in World War One, I was told, “We will lose Europe. We will have nothing to live on if you fire that many shells.” When they say, “You get 50,000 shells”, the people who count the money faint. The biggest problem is that they really don’t have it.

With this kind of resources I can’t conduct new big operations, even though we are working on one right now. It is on the way, but you don’t see it yet. We use a lot fewer shells.

I know that I can beat this enemy. But I need resources. I need 300 tanks, 600-700 IFVs, 500 Howitzers. Then, I think it is completely realistic to get to the lines of February 23rd. But I can’t do it with two brigades. I get what I get, but it is less than what I need. It is not yet time to appeal to Ukrainian soldiers in the way that Mannerheim appealed to Finnish soldiers. We can and should take a lot more territory."

For these reasons, General Zaluzhny is expected to negotiate a peace deal, the best the Ukraine can hope for is to not lose Odessa, and with it, their only access to a port. Without it, they will be landlocked.

Zelensky is going to be replaced (he won't negotiate peace even as every last Ukrainian soldier is thrown into the wood chipper) with General Zaluzhny. Zelensky has wrung every last dollar out of NATO and the US. Time for a strategic peace deal in order to rebuild the neo Nazi core of the Ukrainian army, if any of it survives the conflict.
