My bad. A bit busy, so replied in a hurry. I have stated before that the US or European military aid hold ups are not going to determine the outcome of this war. The Ukrainian men simply don’t want to volunteer and fight. Without men, even drones can’t fly. Why would you care for ordinary Russian citizens who recently gave Putin a massive vote of confidence, even if the few votes were suspicious. Do you believe that Russia would launch a military operation against Ukraine if the USA gave Putin assurances that Ukraine would never become a member of NATO, that Ukraine would remain military neutral and that no foreign soldiers and bases would be stationed in Ukraine, ever?

I doubt any assurances given to Putin by anyone would have made any difference......he's had his eyes on Ukraine for years. Besides, who in their right mind would ever trust him ?
