Top NATO Military Officer Urges Allies and Leaders to Plan for the Unexpected in Ukraine

Why? They're winning already
Not since late last year they’re not. They spent early 2023 winning back the north of the country, then had a summer counteroffensive which captured essentially 0 of the East, then over winter they got nothing in terms of the ammunition and weapons aid they’d need to have to fight against an opponent which can outproduce them 20:1. They’re now desperately trying to hold the front line even though after 3 months of nothing they’re basically out of ammunition.
The big aid packages out of the US and EU are stalled apparently indefinitely. There’s that little package from the UK which hopefully will help a little, but unless the GOP stops being compromised by Russia sometime soon, it seems like they might be in real trouble.

It's so fucking dumb that Ukrainians didn't mine their border out of fear that it would look bad on the world stage.
They really got played for fools by the people who now withhold help from them.
Remember when they were promised protection for de-nuclearization? I bet they feel pretty stupid now for getting rid of nukes and not setting up robust border defenses.
Hopefully, we can remember this and cite it in the future whenever a nation is in a similar position.
What's your point?
If you are totally dominating this war, you don't need extra help...
Thanks for the armchair analysis there, general. Clearly, you know nothing.
Russia is using cold war weapons and ancient tanks, you are just beating a dead horse
Good. No quarter.
Ukraine is totally obliterating Russia even without our weapons.
Cool.
Yep
Russian has access to nuclear and other "illegal" weapons. The use of these weapons are generally agreed to be illegal because they are not limited to the target they are fired at. Russia has indicated in the past they are considering nuclear and other chemical weapons in Ukraine. Assuming that those in power know more than we do would indicate an increased fear of a new or illegal weapon about to be used.
They most certainlu are not this is a russian narrative being pushed because they only way the russians can win is if western support fails. The narrative that ukraine has already won ia pushing directly for what russia wants. Ur either a bot an uniformed idiot or deliberatly pushing a genocidal agenda. Which one is it?
