    It pains me to say this, of course. Ukraine has fought a just war against an unjust – even barbaric – aggressor. And the country has fought well. Indeed, not only have the Ukrainians put up a better defensive fight than was generally expected in the run-up to the war, but they have taken the fight to the enemy, even pushing the Russians back on several fronts.

    But Ukraine has lost the war nonetheless.

    “Separatist Enclaves”

    Love how all progressive ideology about sovereignty goes out the window when it goes against western hegemony

    The ukranian working class is going to be the loser of this conflict regardless who claims victory or whatever.

    Surprising article tbh

    But here’s the truly bitter truth: In broad brush strokes at least, the most-likely post-war settlement is pretty much the same as the settlement that was on offer before the bloodletting began in earnest on Feb. 24. While Putin was the one who pulled the trigger that fateful day, and thus bears full moral responsibility for all that has happened since, there are many others who could have made different choices in the run-up to the war. Different choices could have resulted in a pre-war settlement that would have been almost indistinguishable from the most likely post-war settlement, minus only the untold death and destruction visited on Ukraine these past weeks and months. In that sense, and only in that limited sense, there’s plenty of blame to go around.

    Not that wrong

      A whole slew of articles like this have come out from a lot of mainstream outlets this week. It’s a complete 180 from the narrative they’ve been running for like the whole year now. I wonder if western intelligence agencies are expecting a collapse of the Ukrainian military once Bakhmut falls. So now they’re starting to reshape the narrative in a panic.

        Do you have some of them at hand per chance? I was pretty busy this week and this one is the first I’ve read so far.

        Certainly seems that way though. With the mega panicky giant aid packages, every red line crossed within days and the developments on the ground it seems like the UAF might not have that much more left. I still don’t believe in some spectacular Russian offensive to smash it all, but they’re obviously preparing and shaping the line on every important front and are creating opportunities of multiple encirlcements. Marinka, Ugledar, Seversk, Bakhmut and even Avdeevka and Niu York all look precarious.

        Would be the turnaround of the century though after 2022, if they really start preparing the public for a collapse like this.

      There was a deal which Borris Johnson rushed to Ukraine to torpedo.
