“[T]he Russian assault is devouring Ukraine’s soldiers and weapons. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky begs his Western suppliers daily for more weapons. ‘The priority should be providing missiles,’ he said again on December 9. Possibly between 500,000 and 600,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed or wounded and at least 100,000 more have deserted. And yet, desperate for men and weapons, Zelensky is sending the precious men and weapons he has everywhere but the Donbas where the fighting is happening.” (12/19/24)
