They will, if they don't receive more weapons.
What is this heresy? Hahaha.
Ukraine will lose if they don't receive more weapons and more financial support? This is a highly unusual opinion for this forum, historically speaking. I thought Russia was a second-rate superpower that couldn't even take on the poorest country in Europe, let alone NATO itself. Are you saying that the unprecedented support provided by the collective West has been the DECISIVE factor in allowing Ukraine to resist? Surely not.
Jokes aside, Europe's weapons stockpiles are being drawn down to critical levels with this new promised package. This is the most significant transfer to date, and took months of coordination. It's supposed to be a resounding statement of defiance to Moscow. At the same time, there is doubt whether a Republican-controlled Congress will approve a similar $50B package next year, let alone add additional discretionary billions in this year. So the role of this package necessarily has to be considered as a decisive, "all out" push. Any other serious packages, through low stocks, or manufacturing bottlenecks would have to largely be realized in 2024 and 2025.
What is the Russian perspective? We take the numbers seriously. Hundreds of tanks, and over 500+ AFVs, plus dozens of SPA is nothing to sneeze at. It causes concern regarding an impending counter-offensive where we may have to again give up territories that took months to liberate. However, we have the resources to digest this "infusion" in a matter of months, while it would take the West at least a year to repeat it. This is why Putin has been going around so jolly lately, because the worst fears had not materialized. Still, like I said - this is a huge package, and is still a serious cause for concern.
