Strange.... I thought they were on trajectory of values and decency and winning!

quote:

The fall of the eastern Ukrainian city of Avdiivka to Russia over the weekend was a major symbolic loss for Ukraine and the West.

But while American officials initially argued that it was not a significant strategic setback, that calculus could soon change.

My colleagues reported today that hundreds of Ukrainian troops may have disappeared or been captured during Ukraine’s chaotic retreat from Avdiivka. Two soldiers with knowledge of the retreat estimated that 850 to 1,000 troops had been captured or were missing, a range that Western officials said seemed accurate.

The devastating losses could deal a blow to Ukraine’s morale, which has eroded after last year’s failed counteroffensive and the recent removal of a top commander.

Officials have said they want to mobilize up to 500,000 more people, but the capture of soldiers could make the effort to recruit them more challenging.

It's never a strategic setback when Russia gains ground, but it's always huge when Ukraine does.

I would hope most people have figured out that Russia is just trying to grind forces to dust, not so much conquer territory.

Stalemate is a stalemate. Neither side is setting the world on fire, although Ukraine is pretty adept at sinking Russian Navy heavies. Don't know what that says about either side. Both are equally inept ?

All you have to do is look at the size of their respective economies and populations to know that Ukraine has no chance of defeating Russia. Foreign armies are not mobilizing to Ukraine to help. So why are we dragging out the waste of human life, money, and materiel? Is the goal to see how many people can die and how much of the nation can be destroyed? Because that's what's happening.

Moar foreign villas for Zelensky and his cronies. Moar money for the MIC. Moar Ukrainian bodies for the meat grinder.

Why would any serious person ever suggest that Ukraine was winning on any day of this war when Russia is likely to keep this war going for at least 5 years, and probably more.

Can just be changed to “the US”. None of the other NATO members are contributing.

If the media propaganda back during Vietnam was this bad then we may have won.
