New York Times: Ukraine's military victory over Russia looks unrealistic

Ukrainian prisoners


The New York Times writes in an editorial that it considers unrealistic not only the victory of Kyiv in the military conflict with Russia, but also the return of territories lost in eight years. Despite the fact that, as the article says, Russia's military operations are very chaotic, the Russian army remains strong and continues its systematic offensive in Ukraine.



The publication urges Biden to make it clear to Zelensky that the unconditional support of the United States and NATO for Kyiv in the confrontation with Russia will not be endless. According to the newspaper, Washington should clarify its long-term plans and name the real goals that America is trying to achieve by standing on the side of Ukraine. Otherwise, such support could lead to the escalation of the conflict and endanger peace and security throughout Europe.

Without clarity on these issues, the White House not only risks losing American interest in supporting Ukrainians who continue to suffer the loss of lives and livelihoods, but also endangers long-term peace and security on the European continent.

- states the publication.

According to the New York Times, the continued bellicose rhetoric of the White House prevents Zelensky from deciding to start negotiations with Moscow. And if, nevertheless, a dialogue between Kyiv and Moscow on the cessation of hostilities begins, then the Ukrainians themselves will have to make decisions on the terms of the peace treaty. And for sure, according to the publication, in this compromise solution, Ukraine will have to accept the separation of part of the territories that are already under Russian control.

The task now is to get rid of the euphoria, stop the ridicule and focus on defining and completing the mission.

according to the New York Times.

In this situation, it is America that must decide what place Ukraine will take in the new world order after the end of the military conflict with Russia, the New York Times concludes.

    America was asked to decide. December.
    Now "her opinion is very important for us," just like Kiev's. Putin decides in this region who, what and why.
    But America will have to admit this (what Macron, Scholz and Johnson and Draga think is “very important for us”). And for the States, the choice will narrow, between thermonuclear war, declining living standards, a market crisis, de-dollarization in world trade and a rising China. That is, all the factors are already there, but the threat of war is just a way of suicide, which even the half-dead Biden will not be allowed to take.

    As soon as this fact reaches the majority of Ukrainians, the special operation will end quickly and Ukrainians will live happily in our state.. absolutely nothing will change for ordinary Ukrainians, some oligarchs will replace others.. But the fact that we will be together will mean that we will be stronger..

    With each new day, Russia needs negotiations less and less, and compromises with the United States are more and more unrealistic....
    This article was supposed to be published in late February - early March: now the train has already left ....
    Now the subject of negotiations with the United States can only be the continued existence of Ukraine as a member of the Customs Union and the CSTO in some greatly reduced size and for only one purpose: the procedure for paying external non-military debts to Ukraine's creditors...

      Once - and lost.
      And by the way, about "the whole world that Russia can take away." That's the trouble, it can't. All that the United States and the Russian Federation can do together is to slightly spoil their territories for 30 years, ditching 50 million (there were more before SALT). That's a trifle for a planet with seven billion.

    Too many cheers for patriotic comments that would have been appropriate before the special operation. Undoubtedly, militarily, Russia is much stronger than Ukraine, and we will win. Just not the kind of fights we expected. We were waiting for the war of the XNUMXst century, where the Russian army will be exactly the army of the XNUMXst with drones, drones, remotely destroying the enemy with long-range guided weapons from helicopters and so on. But in reality, we see combat battles like during World War II, tanks against tanks, and whoever pushes more artillery is right. and for example, I absolutely don’t care that the enemy suffers more losses, I want our troops to carry them as little as possible

      And he said for a long time, though not on this site, that artillery continues to steer and it steered in the Karabakh war, and in 2014-15, so you’re vainly rolling a barrel at it. The projectile is cheaper, it is theoretically possible to intercept it, but much more difficult than a rocket. And there was a lot of controversy about the fact that tanks are not needed. There is one such opponent of tanks, Lyosha Kungurov, so he even banned me when he said, don’t talk nonsense.

      Our army was sharpened for small local wars. After all, there were only "partners" around, with whom it was not supposed to fight. The size of our army is simply in no way comparable to the length of the borders. Drones and high-precision weapons are good, but in big wars they are not of decisive importance.
      But in reality, we see combat battles like during World War II, tanks against tanks, and whoever pushes more artillery is right.
      If they fought like during the Second World War, the Ukrainian army would have already been defeated. They fight with the help of BTG, take village after village. No coverage, boilers. So you can fight in Syria. It is impossible to fight like that in Ukraine, it is necessary just like in 1944-45 to fight with divisions and armies, setting them operational and strategic tasks for the entire front.

    The White House not only risks losing American interest in supporting Ukrainians

    But this, kmk, is the purpose of the special operation. See - with the constant pumping of weapons and instructors, the conflict is potentially endless. And defeat the Russian Federation in a week Ukria, it would be an endless topic, here the barbarians from Moscow destroyed Rome. We kick them and express words of support, it will be like the still existing anti-communist movement in the West, when the USSR is long gone.
    But in the hot phase of the confrontation, the West has completely different expenses, and it hits the wallet, and there’s no sense in sight, and jambs come out, like an American shooter, with the emblem of Azov. And already now the mood is going on - yes, your lokhs have pulled up, they are stupidly tired! And when they are tired, it is somehow difficult to support them.
    So it turns out - time is working for us.

    You know what just surprises me so much? Such a chorus of voices began to say that a long military operation is much better than a quick and lightning-fast one.
    It is not possible to comment on this only with censorship words.
    One can really turn to the experience of well-known military leaders such as Suvorov, Zhukov or Rokossovsky, who, like fools, believed that the enemy should be defeated as quickly as possible.

    I would add that the very existence of Ukraine as a kkk state is under threat and a big question. Lugansk, Crimea, Donetsk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhya have already been irretrievably lost. Kharkiv, Nikolaev, Odessa are next in line. Well, Poltava, Sumy, Chernigov and Dnepropetrovsk will also be returned home. What will be left there?
