However, the Ukrainian army is already collapsing - not only physically but also psychologically. “If you are a Ukrainian soldier, your morale is already down in the dumps. The news that Trump has been elected and is going to cut off aid in all meaningful ways in the future can only lead to even greater despair.

Russian officials repeatedly slammed Western military supplies to the Kiev regime and stressed that they only fuel the conflict and raise escalation risk with no chance to affect the ultimate course of the special military operation.
