The war in Ukraine has been going on for months now, with little progress being made by either side in the last couple of weeks. It seems then a stalemate is becoming increasingly likely, as the war becomes more painful & unwinnable for both countries

Or both. Grinding battle of attrition that will go on during entire 2023 until Russian economy collapses to the point of others saying "hey putin, we cannot go on any longer" at which point Putin will take the most extreme measures available because he has to go all in. All NATO inhabitants need to do is to conserve energy, supply Ukraine and help them win the battle of attrition. There is no short ending, there is no easy Ukrainian victory unless NATO finds their balls and goes to Ukraine completely disregarding Russian threats, calling his bluff and liberating Ukrainian territory and retreating afterwards to show Putin they have no intention of invading Russia.
Also, with the Fall's conditions I kinda expected a stalling out. We will have to wait until everything freezes Im afraid to see the war renewed and completely resumed in spring and summer 2023.

It's neither a stalemate nor unwinnable – it is now a war of attrition. Big, peer to peer invasion wars like these commonly can go on for many years. As long as the neighbor countries and the west keeps up the support and supplies, both sides have the capabilities to keep this going for a very long time.

In the war of attrition, Ukraine is winning just because it has a massive support while Russia is drying up because nobody's helping them. Even china refuses and quite busy with the local elections and other territorial dispute

No gains. Even if a Ukrainian victory cant be called a “win”… for the purpose of securing a lasting peace, Russia must lose and so clearly lose in a way that The majority of Russian citizens understand that peace is preferable to illegal invasions. No mater how much it hurts, that is worth giving Ukraine all the support in the world.
@donkeypoison
March 2, 2024 at 4:05 pm
1:01 Misleading. While Ukraïnian forces (and civilists) held out in Asovstal, it was not, as indicated here, by a David-vs.-Goliath fight, but just because the Russians laid siege to instead of invading the facility.
1:33 If it was just for "their crime being fighting for the Asov Regiment" then probably many more than just 89 had been send away. And Asov is a forbidden organisation in Russia, not in Ukraïne. So most probably, they are accused of war crimes. As long as you don't have better arguments than a Twitter post, we should stick with the more probable explanation.
5:03 The correct statement would be: "may have revised".
6:28 Shown text says "turning point" not "recapture", that's very different. The text indicates that the guy is likely to be right, for he had correctly predicted Russian's invasion. But predicting Russian's invasion (maybe shortly before it happened) and predicting a turning point 2 to 3 months in advance are, again, extremely different things.
7:33 "probably with nuclear […] weapons"???!!! What the heck are you weired guys talking about? Now, you're officially just broadcasting panic-mongering propaganda. Journalism was yesterday.

This Beast Unfortunately recognize only power, only force.
He consequently broke all Agreement what they accept, like Hitler did previously,
silly Chemberlen who declare piece with woolf, with beast,
its as if brebbit devlare peace with woolf.
Its only one option – Force.
He leave occupied territory only by force(military, economy…)
And only force pact might have be useful, which means
"its not pact but WARNING , if you invade peaceful country , you immideatly
get forced from it, and very harsh"
Its beast like Hitler, pacts dont work on him.
And this bust would invade as far as He can , just because He want and he is hungry
Like Hitler pribiously
If beast saw any weakness(any climb-down he consider as a weakness)
You Shouldn't, you literally can't negotiate with Beast unless you desire ended up Eaten.
I suggest history should taught lesson to humanity and it wasn't in vain.
We should declair International Anti-Dictator law and all country should
declaire it, if you dont declaire it.
If you dont declair it you can't be considered as freadom country hence its corrupt
and should be declain.
Might be created International police.
If anywhere in the world appear dictator, in 24 hours he and all relative to it should be emprisoned.
(tyrant appears one after another like mashrooms after rainbow but world society just looking, … ou another one appear , f-k , how is it on earth possible.)
When you gonna to act, when world became Tyrany?
Leave your delussions, world on the verge of catastrophy, and only Russians hastiness and American decisiveness, and Ukrainian toughness save us this time, but for now.
But what if next time thay prepared better and seize all continent byte by bite.
This should be finished here, for peace , for freedom
If world society wouldn't be decisieve enough it would be the end.
It will not stop until Tyrani Extinguish from this world and Anty-Tyrant law and forces would established.
It should be done already, at least on terytory where freedom alive.
Because tomorrow might be too late
Every newly ascended to the throne Tyrant should know
In 24 he will be imprisoned or dead , and all their co-participants as well
Noone aver want to by Dictator
(of course should be created International law, and determined criteria by which we cane recognize shurely that thi is Dictator)
World should awake or it might Extinguish
What we have now us a bunch of tyrants , dirty Cremlun money in Europe.

Lessons we all must learn and Practice/Act now for all small Nations, such as Poland, Taiwan and Myanmar etc., who are worried about invasion of big bullied Nations closed to them.
That is…
1. All citizens age between 16-60 yrs must learn how to use automatic guns in 2 weeks time now.
2. All citizens age between 16-50 yrs must take a mandatory citizen duty to work in Army for 2 years.
3. Each and every village and ward must have its own People Defense Force which must be formed by the residents who are age between 16-50 yrs as part of 2 year mandatory military duty.

Peace Plan for Ukrain-Putin War.
1.Both Putin and Ukraine armies withdrawn from the Ukraine territory currently occupied by Putin's army creating buffer zone.
2. Place International Coalition Peace Keeper force , agreed by both Putin and Ukranian Government in these area.
3.Allow all original residents to go back to their own residential addresses.
4. Elect local government step by step by secret voting system in real democratic way with justice, moderated by UN.
5. Plan to have Referandom in a year time by secret voting whether they want to join under European Nations or Russia. This Referandom could be made every 3-5 years as per majority decision of Local Residents where they live in that region.
The fair justice decision
can only be made by real democratic way of Balloting , NOT bullying by Bullets.
Putin – time to rethink weakening of your own Nation by killing each other of the same tribe and your real brothers, the Ukranians and your own Russian Soldiers.
Nobody wins by killing each other and destroying the People's properties.
Even you got the towns like Mariupol, what are you going to gain except you have to rebuild costly everything from the ground.
Putin – Time to rethink Peace.
UN must actively involve in this process as well.

Putin is Cunning like a Fox.
Chechen and Belarus soldiers,who are fighting for Putin, are Stupid as Donkeys.
Chechens were suppressed and their independence was destroyed by Putin in 2009. Belarus is ruled by Putin like autocratic junta.
Putin tricks Chechens and lBelarus to become Weaker by asking them to be killed at Ukraine war.
It is the right time to unite all Democratic Russians, Chechens , Georgians and people of Belarus to unite and eradicate Autocratic Putin regieme to make your countries better place to live and save the world from broken out full bloom WW3.
People of Belarus , Chechen, Georgia and Russians who value Democracy and Human Rights unite together with Ukraine and NOT to fall in the death traps set up by Foxy Cunning Putin's Regieme.
Let's unite and Fight against Autocratic Putin Regieme to make the world better place to live.

There is only one way to end this war, starve russia into oblivion. Sanctions Sanctions Sanctions. Germany needs to stop financing the russian army. Germany donates 200 million euros to the Russian army EVERY DAY, while sending helmets and 7 howitsers to Ukraine, Germany is financing the russian war crimes against Ukrainians and spitting Ukrainians in the face when they finance the russian armys war crimes.
