On 23 April 2024, Lt. Col. (ret.) Danny Davis and I discussed on his podcast — “The Deep Dive” — why the new U.S. aid package to Ukraine is not going to turn the tide in Ukraine’s favor. It is too little, too late. We both agree that now is the time to stop the fighting and seek a diplomatic solution.

Can you imagine if Russia had 'other boots on the ground' and weapons from another country, the West will go ballistic.
We are heading to a WW3 because Biden won't make a treaty.
Wish Meersheimer and others were in charge.
The war in Ukraine has proved very useful to Washington for Biden’s project of re-vitalizing the Atlantic Alliance of “the West”. There is no political option for Washington to put on the “realist” brakes to military support for Ukraine in an election year. The big problem and question for the US is does it support continued war in 2025 and beyond. And is Washington at all ready to bargain with Moscow for a peace tolerable (let alone stable) for the key parties to the conflict. The only certainty is that the world needs this war to end, the sooner the better.
