Ukraine is bleeding out. It cannot fight forever.
Supporting Ukraine “as long as it takes” does not match the reality of this conflict

At our last meeting, a few months after Russia’s full-scale invasion, he had described an almost giddy sense of national solidarity, with young activists talking about a mountaintop festival to defy Russian threats of using tactical nuclear weapons. But that mood has changed.

“We thought that once we showed solidarity, Russia would back off,” he told me. “Now it seems the war could last for decades.” He described a “radicalization” of intellectual life, in which the core principle had become: “We have to kill as many Russians as possible and find innovative ways to do it.” The war has transformed the country. “It’s so kinetic, when ballistic missiles are raining down on you daily. It’s a different reality.”

From the CIA whisperer Ignatius at the Washington Post. He might clarify that Ukraine had just purged all the politicians, news media, and others who were in favor of the peace agreement that was blocked by US and NATO. Even the 'left-wing' US blog Daily Beast put out a hit list of Ukrainians opposed to the war or reporting the Donbass side of the conflict.
