#TimothySnyder taz #Ukraine interview

"Ukraine can certainly win... Europe and North America... have the economic and industrial base to decide this war. But we prefer to deploy them very slowly or not at all... Europe should become more independent of the USA in security matters. This year, the European goal must be to ensure that Ukraine does not lose the war. In the next two or three years, the goal should be to help it win. Regardless of what the Americans do..."

Russia is in the 3rd year of a 3 day war.

Russia has lost more the 315,000 soldiers.

They’ve lost nearly 90% of the Russian prewar army.

Russia has lost 9 ships, including a flagship, to Ukraine which does not have a blue water navy.

Russia can end this by simply leaving from the pre-2014 borders of #Ukraine.

Russia can stop their own damage tomorrow if they choose to.

Ukraine is critically low on ammo, and Russia conducts 50 attacks daily, while the US Congress is holding back the aid to Ukraine.

Putin must be laughing at how much control he has over the US thanks to Trump.
