Ukraine has achieved miracles in its difficult battle with the treacherous enemy. I did not believe that a people with a European self-awareness could fight so sacrificially and fearlessly today!
Recently, there has been a bending under the brutal pressure, indifferent to its own human victims and to the barbaric destruction it is causing to Ukraine.
Alarming processes of fatigue and despair are gaining strength in Ukrainian society.
Through the magnifying glass of the given tens of thousands of dead and maimed and from the losses at the front, Ukrainians inevitably become more and more critical of their president and the top military leadership.
Yes, they are partly right.
Not everything is perfect at the top of the warring state and the belligerents.
But!
But for me, with my painful bias towards Ukraine, the first and main reason for the growing divisions and discord in Ukrainian society is that Ukraine is gradually being abandoned by the West, increasingly abandoned (I'm not talking about words, but about deeds) to the arbitrariness of Fate and the arbitrariness of Russia!
You don't like what I said, do you consider it pessimism?
Talk to ordinary Ukrainians, such as my dozen or so friends of nearly 50 years in Ukraine - men and women with different destinies and priorities until the War!
More and more people in Ukraine see the impossibility of endlessly fighting and believing that the seized lands will be returned, after the West is forging a deal of Peace for Territories, which for me will be
A Little Peace for a Short Time vs. Many Territories for a Long Time.
The West's Aid from Mid-2022 is mainly to make Ukraine's resistance as long as possible and to give the destructive processes in Russia the opportunity to gain momentum and become irreversible.
Ukraine has gradually become an instrument for exhausting Russia.
But Ukraine's blood is running out in the meantime and its resistance may turn into agony, into a battle to the last Ukrainian.
We are within our rights to criticize the West for not understanding that this is a War not against Ukraine, but against the West, but Ukrainians increasingly believe that Ukraine is being "given" the role of a cordon sanitaire, a minefield, an invisible Iron Curtain, a demarcating gray zone between Europe and the rabid dog Rashistan...
The shock of Trump's election injects not a horse's but an elephant's dose into the feeling of abandonment and doom among Ukrainians.
As a result of the somewhat necessary, but completely insufficient Western aid, Ukraine is changing, radicalizing itself towards the West, for now through its feeling of abandonment and sacrificial lamb, an instrument in the West's geostrategy.
But purely internal Ukrainian processes are also gaining strength in Ukraine, which have a systemic nature, which threaten the integrity of the Ukrainian social organism...
Ukraine is beginning to behave like any system that becomes isolated and does not bring in energy and information from the outside.
Entropy in it begins to grow. Chaos is unleashed and self-accelerating. And internal corrosive processes begin.
1. Dissatisfaction with political leaders is escalating.
2. Dissatisfaction with military leaders is escalating.
3. Men aged 25-55 (those still alive and those who have not fought) are hiding as best they can from being drafted into the army, which is increasingly often violent.
4. Searches for the guilty are underway, discord is unleashed everywhere, the designation of the ultimate, the enemy of the people, the Russian agents, the traitors and traitors is in full swing, the exaggeration of shortcomings is raging, elevating them to the rank of decisive reasons for the possible, alas, a crack along the entire front.
But whatever the bad thing is inside Ukraine, we must sift the wheat from the chaff. We need to point out the main virus, which has recently been collapsing the increasingly strong defensive, immune system of Ukraine!
Ukraine is highly asymmetrical in comparison with Russia in terms of resources - human, material, financial and information. And it can resist only with constant and huge help from outside.
And this help is insufficient, untimely, ineffective and does not solve the most important military needs of Ukraine.
This help delays defeat, it is not subordinated to the strategy of the West for a successful end to the War for Ukraine.
And the gradual cornering of Ukraine into the ring of the terrible and bloody War begins.
Even when cornered, despite the brutal rashist bully hitting her harder and harder, without following any rules, Ukraine holds on, finds the strength and flexibility to fight back, to land a few hooks in the enemy's face. But there are already several heavy knockdowns, despite which Ukraine stands on its feet!
However, this cannot continue for years!
The categories of boxers are different…
The series of knockdowns could end in a knockout.
It could. If the West does not radically change its attitude towards the War!
Ukraine also has something to optimize in political and military terms, but it will not have a decisive influence on the course and outcome of the War!
Everything is in the hands of the West. And only of the West!
If the West wants to remain the West, and not a declining coterie of deaf, blind, dumb and impotent remnants of the greatest community created by Human civilization.
Even more - it is not just a question of the West remaining the West, but of remaining, of surviving, of continuing to exist…
