Even Zelenskyyy Admits Ukraine's Counter - offensive has failed so why arewestern leaders still calling for escalation

Six weeks into the the much hyped Ukrainian counter offensive and with nothing to show for the thousands of young men killed or wounded significant breakthrough after six weeks, it is worth asking whether Ukraine’s counter-offensive is another US / NATO military disaster, because it certainly succeeding up to succeeding now.

Throughout the war western media have faithfully reported the official narrative that Ukraine is winning even though it was obvious to anyone with more testicles or tits as the case may be, than brain cells that Russia was gradually advancing and consolidating its gains. When sensationalised reports heralded great Ukrainian victories these were usuallly nothing more than a case of Russia having withdrawn to more easily defensible positions.

 Having now built up their forces through mobilisation and dug extensive defence lines during the winter's lull in fighting, the Russians aren’t going anywhere. 

That has left Ukraine with no option other than to launch frontal attacks against heavily defended positions, similar to the tactics used on the Western Front in World War I where trench lines ran continuously from Switzerland to the sea, with neither side achieving a decisive breakthrough for four years. Today Kyiv is more vulnerable to shifts Western policy, given the possibility of a Trump presidency and very visible signs of war fatigue among the general populations of Europe and North America. 

The main question then is: can the Ukrainians cope – militarily, politically, financially – with months or even years of 1914-18 style trench warfare with added tank traps, minefields, bunkers and cluster bombs? The UK Ministry of Defence has described these Russia's front lines as “some of the most extensive systems of military defensive works seen anywhere in the world”.

Yesterday a Presidential Decree, signed by Zelensky announced the “dismissal of V. Prystayk from the positions of Ambassador… to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and Permanent Representative of Ukraine to the International Maritime Organization (IMO)” IMO,  a U.N. agency responsible for regulating safety at sea, with headquarters in London. 

The note recalling Prystaiko offers no reason for his dismissal, but comes just days after a small controversy brewed about Ukraine’s attitude towards its allies, from whom all military support has so far been met only with demands for more. Zelensky's OWN AMBASSADOR to Britain in open revolt against the coke snorting gay boy puppet presidentnd his noxious, neo - Nazi backers who is intent on propelling the world towards a nuclear armageddon. Why are we supporting this man a with billions of £$€ of taxpayer's money? Apart from the mass Covid vaccine crime/global warming hoax this must be the crime of the century.

Western Mainstream Media have for a built up expectations of a result where Russia is defeated and humiliated by NATO/USA/Ukraine but that result is looking increasingly unlikely. Unless USA/NATO want to ramp this up to WW3, by getting directly involved on the ground and in the air then Zelenskyyy's allies need to eat humble pie  year and threaten to withdraw all support from the Kiev regime unless they enter nagotiations for a settlement immediately. Any such settlement would now require Ukraine to concede more territory than would have been the case if Ukraine had accepted the original deal they negotiated with Russia and which Boris Johnson flew to Kiev to torpedo.

As it is I can only imagine that TPTB in NATO/USA are now racking their brains to find a strategy for managing a way out of all this that is less disastrous, and involves less loss of face than their exit from Afghanistan. However all this plays out? I see that the geopolitical world situation will be significantly different when the war is over however it ends.

As Ukraine's much hyped counterattack has failed to achieved the and momentum that hoped for by American and NATO leaders including President Volodymyr Zelensky who admitted it was "slower than desired", and a range of soldiers interviewed by BBC and Sky News television reporters t on different parts of the long (probably too long given the depletion of Ukrainian military manpower,) frontline have blamed minefields laid by Russian troops for that delay.

As the war in Ukraine grinds on and Russia steps up its economic war against the west and in particular The European Union, claims made recently by the idiotically 'woke' leaders of Europe's main economic and military powers that the West has a once-in-a–generation chance to severely weaken Russia’s capabilities, both militarily and geopolitically, look increasingly hollow.
