Everything we see… shows that this fight is for all free, democratic countries… I know everyone is trying to help… I hope NATO and related countries give adequate support… Ukraine is phenomenal… but Russia is ruthless… all support to Ukraine… Arms, Intel, Logistics…

Apparently, the majority of Russians support the war in Ukraine. Nothing will change in Russia until Russians experience year zero - the same as Germany in 1945.

Probably for the same reason Ukraine has rejected every attempt to negotiate a peace w/Russia. The US won't allow it. NATO goes along w/it, for now. If UK is destroyed n can't pay back our "aid", then we get their resources...if the US can pry it from Russian hands.

As a general principle we shouldn’t dismiss people who have been wrong per se in analysing highly uncertain outcomes….rather assess the merits of their arguments. Many of the analysts who thought Russia would invade Ukraine have been wrong in other predictions and analysis!

it is necessary to take into account the fact that in a democracy, freedom of expression opens a right to contradictory debate, but what is striking in France is to see how the roles can be reversed, Ukraine being able to become the who provoked and therefore desired this war.
