    Every media has been saying that Ukraine is losing for 10½ years now, but nobody capable is willing to end the situation

      Until a few months ago, western media was blithefully talking about Ukraine winning. Now that the AFU is starting to collapse the panic in western media is brewing. The situation will end with the defeat of the Ukrainian army.

              Russia is very much ending it, hence all the panic over Ukrainian army collapse that’s unfolding in western media right now.

                Why only now, what’s the benefit of keeping it on before

                  Because it’s a war of attrition and it took a long time for the AFU to reach the point of collapse. Russia didn’t do big arrow offensives because those would’ve been very costly in terms of equipment and manpower as Ukraine found out during its fabled offensive. Instead, Russia chose to use its massive artillery advantage to grind out the AFU instead, and now we’re seeing the results of that approach. Here’s an analysis from an actual expert if you’re interested

                  Pretending Ukraine was winning was necessary to send them more weapons. They would never get funding for a war of attrition which ends in their loss.

                  Now the obvious conclusion is unfolding and our media slowly changes tone as if they are surprised Ukraine cannot win.
