The chief of the NATO Military Committee tells the Financial Times that the West wrongly supposed providing training and ammunition to Ukraine would help Kiev win the war.

Ukraine’s Western allies were “overly optimistic" about the war in 2023 and assumed that providing Kiev with the required ammunition and training would lead to victory, chief of the NATO Military Committee Admiral Rob Bauer told the Financial Times on Sunday. …

For now, the West’s plan is to “keep the Ukrainian military from collapsing".

    Yeah, I’m sure capital didn’t care about what the outcome for Ukraine would be. But as you say, it certainly did care about what the outcome for Russia was - the West has been dreaming for decades of a Balkanized, subservient Russia. And anything that got it closer to that would be considered a victory.
