Ukraine’s going to lose, no matter how much we send them. Ukraine just doesn’t have the people to fight the war.
I am coming to the reluctant conclusion that demographics reign Supreme here. Numbers on each side are what they are.
Short of huge influx of fighting g soldiers from outside Ukraine to help them, plus unlimited support in money and materiel to fight with, the Ukes do not have the resources to win against a determined Russia invasion in a protracted war of attrition.
Perhaps if the Ukes were re-armed with the nukes they had before giving them up in exchange for security garuntees after the Soviet Union dissolved, they could then threaten the Russians with a mutually assured destruction scenario.
I am not joking but don’t see it happening either.
Would be cheaper to give the Ukes their nukes back to threaten Putin’s Russia with than what we are doing now.
Change my mind?
