I think it's reasonable to conclude this will not bode well for continued support for Ukraine, too, but it's too early to tell. Nobody wants to be tagged with a loss, so an abrupt shut off is not the greatest risk. Rather, the aid just trickles away. Putin has been counting on this, so despite his obvious intel failures in Ukraine, he appears to be reading the tea leaves a lot better on European national sentiments.
I've been saying for almost a year now that the opponents of Ukraine support are slowing winning the argument. Democracies are not hospitable to interminable wars, and electeds are wise to avoid "as long as it takes" policy to the greatest extent possible. If you can win it quick, you need to do so, because stringing it out hoping for the other guy's logistics to fail is risky. Your own public support might fail first.
interesting though, is to watch China. Zelensky is accusing them of standing in the way of peace, which makes sense. China doesn't want the war to end. It wants Russia and Nato to bleed each other dry over Ukraine. Nato can bleed Russia dry. The converse is not true, but Ukraine does create a distraction over Taiwan. China hoping we over-commit in Ukraine, thereby limiting our supply chain for Taiwan.FLBear5630 said:I agree.whiterock said:driven primarily by immigration and law/order issues (which in no small part are connected to the immigration issue).

Ukraine needs to get to Peace Talks. If aid is going to try up, they need to discretely tell Zelinsky so he can change his stance on Russia keeping Crimea and what they have. Not optimal, but if there is no more aid, reality.
Then, learn from South Korea. Make a DMZ area that will cost too much to cross... Long-ass DMZ
The Ports are what bother me, in the current scenario Ukraine would lost 3 of its top 5 Ports. I would be fearful for Odessa. Ukraine cannot lose Odessa and Chernomorsk and still export.

China is in a no lose position. Even if we don't over commit, they want Russia to be successful. It will be used as precedent that the West allowed Russia to take back Ukraine, so their taking control of Taiwan is justified. They also want Russia to owe them, they want those Siberian resources...whiterock said:interesting though, is to watch China.

I think its a good point that China likes seeing NATO bleeding in this conflict.
Again that just undermines the whole idea that this proxy war in Ukraine is good for us....it obviously is not if China wants it.
you keep leaping to pre-determined conclusions that ignore cost-benefit and collateral consequences, all premised on the faulty notion that Ukraine matters nothing to us. Russian victory in Ukraine deteriorates out security position and strengthens Russia (not necessarily what China wants....) We are big enough to work both problems at the same time, easily, something both China and Russia know full well.
Instead of focusing on China our elites are focused on some ex-soviet state in the frozen lands of East Europe (a poor and rapidly depopulation area of the world)
Not true. We've been reshaping our forces in Asia to deal with rising Chinese ambitions and retain substantial deterrence.
While China gets to focus on the rich East Asia region and on the resources of Africa.
We are focused on it, too. Always can be said that we need to do more, be we are not in a position of great difficulty, at all.A thought-provoking map: Ukraine is part of a demographic crisis throughout Eastern Europe that promises to become a major socio-economic factor in the coming decades.
