    I am an American living in Kherson throughout the war and I therefor follow related things in Washington very closely. I am surely not an expert on politics but I sense a strong positive shift recently in Washington as evidenced by the final approval of the $61B and the permission to use American weapons such as the HIMARS in Russian territory near Kharkiv. I think that this shift will continue and increase in momentum. If I did not think this, I would not still be here in Kherson. Great discussion.

      Well, the US was never gonna back away. It’s too juicy a target for them. However, this US handle everything will have to change once this is cleared up. The American public has grown tired of it. The left has deemed (and I’m not letting the right off the hook here) Russia a threat to globalism and has wanted them broken since the late 90s. They won’t let up till it’s finished. Now, how much and how often is the question. People forget, after the Warsaw Pact breakup the US closed 7 out of 8 defense manufacturers. We have limitations as well. Some of these missiles can take over two years to make.

      We should worry about the coming election. No doubt if Trump is elected he will abandon Ukraine to Putin. At one time I thought that Putin held some dirt on Trump that exercised some control but now it seems that Trump just hopes to be a similar tyrant and sees Putin as a role model.

    The film "Enemy at the Gate" was a reasonably accurate portrayal of the way the war was going in the siege of Stalingrad , the sheer Brutality of the Russian High Command , frequently firing on their own troupes when they retreated from overwhelming superior firepower, is being repeated in the Special Military Operation. There is only one way of ending this Bloodbath and that is just not going to happen , Putin has an Iron Grip on Power and while he is able to maintain that grip, the Children of Russia will be sacrificed, very sad.

    I think that your guest misses the point in re. China siding with the west. Russia needs China to buy oil to fund the war and to supply steel, bearings, basic microchips etc etc to keep it's war factories running. Russia is not a big manufacturer of many things and the tripling of trade between Russia and China shows the Russian dependency on China. Also, if China walks away so would their buddies in N Korea and maybe Iran also. It would be totally isolated and that would end the war sooner.

  • @gregparrott
    @gregparrott 26 дней назад +1

    I appreciate Marshall Bell's well balanced perspective. The 'what if' scenario - providing all the weapons immediately rather than progressively, seems like a futile exercise. That's because we'd only be speculating about Putin's response. If the west provided a decisive advantage from the outset, it seems likely that Putin would declare FULL mobilization of well over a million Russians. The west's rapid, escalatory actions would provide the rationale for him to say it's necessary. I doubt Ukraine by itself would have survived if a full Russian mobilization occurred in the first few months. Given this possibility, the measure, incremental approach to arming Ukraine appeases Putin just enough for for him to allow his forces to be slowly bled dry.
