"Its amazing how people fail to grasp some very simple things about war termination. It takes both sides to agree to end the war. The Russians are demanding things the Ukrainians not hawkish voices outside Ukraine are unwilling to concede and with good reason. a the obstacle to peace is not that theres no peace party in Ukraine for which Mendel is supposedly trying to create space for but that the Kremlin demands the total surrender which most Ukrainians but apparently not Mendel oppose. You better dispense with these fantasies that dont acknowledge the reality of how war termination works"

"While Kremlin shills are peddling the NATO provoked Russia and NATO aspirations are holding up the peace narrative lets do a reality check. Potential NATO mentorship for Ukraine is not the primary cause of this war. Ukraine was constitutionally neutral in 2014 when Russia seized Crimea and initiated the conflict in Donbas. NATO membership for Ukraine was not in the cards because of American and German opposition both effective vetoes. This was true even after the infamous Bucharest Declaration in 2008 which was never followed by a Membership Action Plan required to put a country on the path"

"The NSS uses nominal GDP numbers to portray Europes decline because with this metric the US share of world GDP has remained stable at about 26%. But the US has a much higher price level than Europe so its going to be hit hard by the PPP adjustment which is really the metric one should use for the comparison being made and you can see why the clowns who wrote the NSS didnt use it. The PPP-adjusted GDP shares now are XX% for the US and XX% for the EU. China is the largest economy with 20%. The decline is real but its not just the EU its the collective West. And it does not matter what fantasies"

"The more the US pulls out of its European commitments the more imperative the defense of Ukraine for Europes security becomes. Its a fundamental contradiction in the US current strategy to demand adherence to its wishes while simultaneously weakening the lever of influence that had given it the outsized voice in the past.

It can fight them to a bloody standstill freezing the war along the line of contact provided it gets sufficient aid.
