A top NATO military officer says the war in Ukraine could “determine the fate of the world.” NATO Military Committee Chair Admiral Rob Bauer says Western armies and political leaders must drastically change the way they help Kyiv fend off invading Russian forces.
I think the best outcome would be some negotiated settlement where the separatist territories get some sort of semi-autonomous status, halfway between being Ukraine and being Russia, but more importantly that it’s China that brokers the negotiations. Release valve gets put on the pressure cooker, but Zelensky essentially abandoning the U.S./West as the path out of this in favor of someone that can talk to Russia instead of talk down to Russia. Absolute humiliation for the DC blob.
