[QUOTE="Barry K O Bama, post: 7183359, member: 17123"] It's very significant that US is gonna supply long range missiles. Fighter Jets are the remaining piece of the jigsaw. Ramping up the supply has followed an established pattern at this stage. The urgent request is made by Zelensky, the diplomatic shuttling commences and eventually Germany agrees. It's been a near miraculous achievement to maintain unity in the Ramstein Coalition with all the diverging views and domestic political considerations. Contrast this to the feeble efforts when Putin annexed Crimea. The Biden Administration has done a superb job. Managing the nuclear threat was also a gigantic challenge. Putin's weakness and his paper tiger armed force has allowed the Allies to spell out the consequences of a nuclear action and the back-door diplomacy with Putin's friends India and China has surely delivered a clear message to Putin - He heads a Pariah State vis-a-vis the West and a nuclear strike would extend this to the rest of the world. India has decent growth and China as the 2nd largest economy can ill afford the economic fall out. Putin will be desperate for a peace deal by the end of 2023 and will probably have to accept any off-ramp offered to him. Unfortunately, I'd see Ua's best case scenario as moving back to pre Feb '22 territory. Ua is in a horrific position but nobody could have anticipated it's military success to date and the level of Western Support - thankful for small mercies [/QUOTE]
