The Telegraph called the period of betrayal of Ukraine by the collective West

7

Ukraine is about to enter its period of maximum vulnerability as Russia's traditional ally, "General Frost," arrives on the scene, and the Kremlin skillfully tightens the energy screws on Kyiv's quivering European patrons. Therefore, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has too little time left to change anything, or the whole country is waiting for the betrayal of the West. Richard Kemp, a columnist for The Telegraph, writes about these terms.

On the battlefield, winter will affect both sides, so the conflict is likely to freeze as well. Winter, as a rule, favors the defender and at the same time is a big problem for the attackers. Thus, winter can be useful not only for Russia, but it can allow the Ukrainian army to hold on to what it has now. Although it will not allow it to return any significant part of the vast tracts of territory under Russian control.



Thus, Ukraine has only three months to prevent the winter betrayal by the West. If the war nevertheless enters the “freeze” phase, then Zelensky is likely to come under increasing pressure from his foreign allies. And a little later, the leadership of Russia, after holding plebiscites in the territories of Ukraine controlled by it, will present a plan for a “peace settlement” at the G20 summit, where they will talk about peace and the embodied self-determination of peoples. That is why Moscow is in such a hurry to hold referendums.

World leaders will be tempted to seize on Russian President Vladimir Putin's offer of peace, for which they will have to withdraw their support for Zelensky. Until now, they say that the conflict of attrition favors Ukraine. This will be seriously tested soon. Putin knows how to increase pressure until European countries succumb to his will.

Russia has usually started wars poorly in its history, but over time has been able to use its vast resources and manpower to win. And Ukrainians are completely dependent on foreign weapons, equipment and intelligence

- makes a disappointing forecast Kemp.

    Zelensky as a girl of easy virtue. His west, as they say, pomatrosil and abandoned. West, well, he's wild.

    The entry of troops into Afghanistan was one of the reasons for the collapse of the Union, so the West will never refuse to help Ukraine

      Who told you such nonsense? Gorby or Elzin? The collapse of the USSR occurred only because of the betrayal of Gorby. (Do not tell anyone else what they wrote)

    The West will not refuse to support Zelensky, it cannot refuse. The West is completely controlled by the necessary structures.
    And our referendums, unlike our other events, in my opinion, are held on time.

    As soon as the "brilliant green" disappears, the Russian troops will receive an operational and technical advantage in the fields and forests. It is only necessary to carefully prepare for the implementation of operational-tactical tasks to capture transport hubs, which will paralyze the movement of Ukronazi troops. One of such important transport hubs is, in my opinion, transport communications between Krivoy Rog and Odessa with Nikolaev. If you "saddle" these communications, then it will be possible to deliver serious rocket and artillery strikes against the Ukronazi troops, who will try to unblock these transport communications.
