Will Ukraine accept Trumpâs peace deal?
Do they have a choice?
@Aaronjmate argues Ukraine is running out of men, out of money, out of allies, and out of time, while war hawks fight to keep a losing war alive.
We get into:
â˘â â Why Ukraine is so desperate they are dragging young men off the streets to fill the front
â˘â â Why desertion is skyrocketing even according to pro-Western think tanks
â˘â â Why Trumpâs first peace plan terrified Washington
â˘â â How the bipartisan war machine watered it down within hours
â˘â â Why Russia has the manpower, territory and momentum to keep advancing
â˘â â Why Minsk and Istanbul show peace was possible but intentionally blocked
â˘â â How Europe is being humiliated, sidelined and forced to pay the bill
â˘â â How Venezuela suddenly became the next potential intervention target
MatĂŠ says the West is staring at a strategic disaster.
Ukraine is collapsing.
Russia is pushing forward.
Europe is fracturing.
And the political elite is clinging to a proxy war with no path to victory.
If this continues, the fallout will not stop at Ukraine.
The balance of global power is shifting in real time.
