Ukraine..What's the Next Step?

Enlightened view????

Vuchetich was born in Yekaterinoslav, Russian Empire (now Dnipro, Ukraine), the son of Viktor Vuchetich (Vucetic), of Serbian descent[citation needed], and Anna Andreevna Stewart, of Russian and of French descent.[1]

He was a prominent representative of the Socialist Realism style and was awarded with the Lenin Prize in 1970, the Stalin Prize (1946, 1947, 1948, 1949, 1950), Order of Lenin (twice), Order of the Patriotic War (2nd degree), Hero of Socialist Labor (1967) and People's Artist of the USSR (1959).

Biden says Ukraine might have to give Russia land in ‘negotiated settlement’

Mearsheimer really nailed this whole thing way back in 2014

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov could not visit Serbia, since Serbia's neighbor countries, Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Montenegro had shut down their airspace to Lavrov's airplane.  

Unity and sanctions are working against Vladimir Putin and his inner circle.

Russia calls Lavrov flight bans ‘hostile action'
The Kremlin has said airspace closures by three eastern European countries which prevented its foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov, from travelling to Serbia were a “hostile action.”

Countries surrounding Serbia - Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Montenegro - closed their airspace to an official plane that would have carried Moscow’s top diplomat to Belgrade on Monday.

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told reporters such actions could cause problems with the timetabling of high-level diplomatic meetings. But they would not prevent Moscow from meeting with friendly nations.

Russia should not close the US embassy despite the crisis triggered by the war in Ukraine, the US ambassador to Moscow was quoted as saying on Monday.

“We must preserve the ability to speak to each other,” John Sullivan told Russia’s state news agency TASS in an interview.

Obama couldn’t beat Syria and Assad in a proxy war and Biden thought he was going to beat Russia and Putin

Ukrainians will win this war, no doubt from my perspective. 

Ultimately I believe this true.  But the devastation to their people, economy, agriculture and cities will be  almost unbelievably catastrophic.

Please listen to Admiral James Stavridis, former NATO Supreme Allied Commander, has to say regarding the war of attrition.

Putin's 'burn rate' is so bad he'll be looking to negotiate by year end*

On top of West's strong military, economy, and humanity support, the Ukrainians' hope, will and resilience will win this war of attrition.    

Can we say lambs to slaughter or is it too soon.

Since the beginning of the full-scale war against Ukraine, the Russian army has lost 31,360 soldiers, 1,390 tanks and 694 artillery systems.

Ukrainian army making gains in the south.

MYKOLAIV, Ukraine (Reuters) - Western-supplied artillery systems are already making a difference on the ground for Ukraine and it is "just a question of time" before its forces win back significant ground in the south, the governor of the Mykolaiv region said on Wednesday.

Governor Vitaliy Kim, whose region is partially occupied by Russia but remains just one of two that retains significant access to the Black Sea, told Reuters that Ukrainian forces had "some success" in recent weeks in a counterattack in the neighbouring Kherson region.

Asked when Western weapons would start to make a difference on the ground against Russian forces that invaded the country on Feb. 24, he said: "It is already happening ... and we will have (more) success."
