Is the West getting tired of Ukraine? (no, not really)
NordVPN: https://nordvpn.com/tldr
With the war in Ukraine on the cusp of its second year and with no resolution in sight, some fear that “Ukraine Fatigue” may begin to set in. So in this video, we discuss whether it’s a real phenomenon and whether Western support is actually waning.

CORRECTION: At 0:15 and 1:10, we've misspelt 'fatigue' as 'fattigue'. This is entirely our bad; we shouldn't be making these sorts of mistakes and we can only apologise.
P.S. We've also seen some comments taking issue with us covering this topic. We're covering this because this is a real concern with both Western and Ukrainian politicians, and the answer to the question affects the future trajectory of the war. We're not saying that the war in Ukraine is boring, or that the West should stop supporting Ukraine. As we make clear at the end of the video, the data suggests the best way to assuage Ukraine fatigue (amongst Republicans) is to increase support for Ukraine, while being conscious of the risks of escalation.

At the beginning of the war, it was about saving Kyiv from being invaded. Now it’s about taking back Crimea, which is not what the goal was in the beginning of the war. No wonder people are sick of zelensky and his greed and corrupt government

The West talks big about support of Ukraine but with what ?
1. Germany is in recession from increasing energy cost after Ukraine support. The Green (War) Party is losing in the polls, AfD is rising. Similar can be said for most of EU.
2. EU indebted means it lacks the means to support Ukraine.
3. The US is 4% of world population, is sucking 40% of global total deficit, 60% of global current deficits … its support Ukraine by printing money, which means the conservative are going to stop this support – as in the ousting of Kevin McCarthy.
4. Both the US and EU has shown their lack of surge capacity for munition production to support Ukraine.
5. Hungary, Poland, Slovakia do not support Ukraine so EU cannot act even if it had the means.
Fatique or not, Ukraine's supporters has shown more enthusiasm than wherewithold to deliver "as long as it takes."

I disagree. Once again the west is shackled to a corpse. And this one might drag us into WW3.

Is the west getting tired of Ukraine? (Yes we actually are) and I have been since before the start of the war and during the start all the way up until now, I’ve always thought it was absolutely disgusting and sick that any of my “peers” want this war to be funded with billions instead of stopping the war, people claim to be on ukraines side support Ukraine this and that and yet the Ukrainians along with the Russians (but Russia BAD so who cares right?) are just dying in mass but apparently sending them weapons to keep fighting is somehow the morally correct thing to do? No it is not, the US government along with many other western nations are milking the war for all they can as per usual and everybody is too blinded by the Russia bad idea that nobody wants to consider what war ACTUALLY means for everyone involved, but of course nobody WILL consider it because it’s not them being shot at and having to kill people.

A lot of people in EU ( including me) will get very angry if West reduce support for Ukraine. It should be increased and give them fuckin' planes.

For the West, support for Ukraine has become a burden. It's like a favorite suitcase with a broken handle – it's a pity to throw it and it's inconvenient to carry.

We must stop pouring our precious tax to that hopeless country that's seriously corrupted and will not win a war anyways.
