Ukraine is running out of men to fight. No amount of western money can fix that. The NATO countries have spent more money outfitting Ukraine than the Russians have spent conducting the operation.

This thing is nearly over. It will end with Russia permanently occupying, then incorporating eastern Ukraine back into Russia proper. The outcome was inevitable after it was obvious that Russia was not going to withdraw after the massive influx of money and weapons to Ukraine in the summer and fall of '22. Since then, billions of dollars have been spent, and thousands of people have died, for nothing.
