Europe

It is 2026, and in a downbeat speech at the Kremlin, Vladimir Putin finally announces a withdrawal from Ukraine. Russian troops have done their best – or worst – but a fresh influx of well-trained Ukrainians have finally prevailed. The Donbas is now in Kyiv’s grip, Crimea’s fall only days away.

lol. lmao.

rather than heading straight to Bakhmut to scrap full-on with the Russians, the Euro-force would stay hundreds of miles back – most likely west of the River Dnipro, the waterway that that divides Ukraine in two.

We can win the war by not fighting it.

Their presence would, though, free up large numbers of Ukrainian troops to join the fray further east.

TO THE LAST UKRAINIAN!!

In the West’s Afghanistan campaign, for example, America, Britain and Canada bore the brunt of the 3,500 casualties, while most European participant nations lost 50 or less.

I see, I see, which side won that war again?

Holy shit this is like the most evil thing I've ever read. Not only does Ukraine not get the peace that they've needed for nine years now, but Europe is gonna literally stand behind them and drive every single able-bodied Ukrainian directly into the path of Russian artillery.
