President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that Ukraine's partners "are afraid of Russia losing the war" and would like Kyiv "to win in such a way that Russia does not lose," Zelensky said in a meeting with journalists attended by the Kyiv Independent.

President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that Ukraine’s partners “are afraid of Russia losing the war” and would like Kyiv “to win in such a way that Russia does not lose,” Zelensky said in a meeting with journalists attended by the Kyiv Independent.

Kyiv’s allies “fear” Russia’s loss in the war against Ukraine because it would involve “unpredictable geopolitics,” according to Zelensky. “I don’t think it works that way. For Ukraine to win, we need to be given everything with which one can win,” he said.

His statement came on May 16 amid Russia’s large-scale offensive in Kharkiv Oblast and ongoing heavy battles further east. In a week, Russian troops managed to advance as far as 10 kilometers in the northern part of Kharkiv Oblast, according to Zelensky.

    That’s a poor analysis and untrue. Ukraine doesn’t have the soldiers to defend their positions anymore. They will not be able to stop the Russian advance. You’ll see soon enough. How many Ukrainians need to die still?

          Ah an uncommon defeatist liberal still wanting to throw in the towel this many years later. I’m guessing you were posting that Ukraine would fall in 2 days at the start and then fearmongering every military aid delivery as setting off WWIII. Might I suggest finding a new hobby? Being consistently and repeatedly wrong over the last few years can’t be good for your mental health.
