Now Even the Left Recognizes Ukraine’s Counter-Offensive Has Failed. The Deep State Must Prepare for Humiliation

Time is running out for Ukraine. After 18 months of war, it is no longer a question of if the Western alliance will falter, but when. . .

Now, polls in both Europe and the US show public support for military aid to Kyiv dropping away, with one recent survey indicating that less than 50 per cent of Americans are in favor of additional funding. This at least partially reflects sluggish progress in Ukraine’s counter-offensive, which has seen only limited gains so far.

Western military analysts and the media built expectations that, this summer, Kyiv would repeat its striking victories of last autumn at Kharkiv and Kherson. Now, people are wondering how much bang they are getting for their buck, and whether the significant investment made by their countries will ever achieve anything concrete. . .

There is also growing disquiet about Ukrainian corruption, amplified by those voices who oppose American engagement in Europe for other reasons. . .

Biden will be exerting pressure on Kyiv to come to terms, sooner or later. . . Putin is only likely to play ball – though this is far from certain – provided he can keep the Ukrainian territory he has illegally annexed, and Ukraine’s NATO membership is kept permanently off the table. That would obviously be a disaster for Ukraine, but it would also be a defeat for NATO. . . If anything like this scenario plays out, a humiliated West will need a robust damage-limitation strategy.
