Yeah, but will they last another 2? The EU still seems to be under the impression that Russia might be reasoned with. Most NATO countries are still hovering around 2% military expenditures and bickering about who can send Ukraine what, or whether Ukraine can attack beyond their borders.

The men at the front are tired and need to be relieved, but thousands of men are fleeing the country in order not to get drafted, so prisoners are being given the option to go the front lines. They have been fighting a war with a hand strapped behind their back and it wouldn’t surprise me if they ran out of steam.

And if Trump wins, Ukraine will have to rely nearly fully on the EU. It’s doubtful the EU can increase military production in months when they’ve barely done so in years.

It’s my sincere wish that Ukraine wins, but its allies have to get their heads in the game. If Ukraine loses, I don’t even know if the EU has any plans at all or if they’ll be as “flabbergasted” as when Russia invaded a second time.
