Give Ukraine the full war support it needs and people will come back.
What, you think Ukrainians will willfully keep fighting if the West keeps ‘muh escalation’ and continue drip-feeding it to death? The Ukrainians are not expendables for the rest of Europe.
We need French and Baltic troops to take the non-combat roles…
That’s why a long war of attrition leads to bad outcomes for Ukraine.
No mention of the fact by russias own admission it is short 4.5 million workers. No doubt the number is actually worse and yet they keep feeding more into the meat grinder.
Biggest blunder in the whole war was probably ukraine letting adult women leave the country. Thats millions of workers that just left the country when you need workers the most.
Bloomberg has been running this story pretty much every week.
