Ukraine's struggle against the Russian invader has lasted over 40 months, beginning with a full-scale assault in February 2022. The war has resulted in tens of thousands of casualties and millions displaced. Ukrainian infrastructure, including industries, schools, and hospitals, has been devastated. Despite the overwhelming odds, Ukraine continues to resist. However, concerns arise as Russian forces advance, and Ukraine's defenses become increasingly strained. The potential consequences of Ukraine's collapse pose significant risks to Europe and the transatlantic alliance, highlighting the urgency of international involvement and support.
For 40 cruel and bloody months, Ukraine has fought the Russian invader. Since February 2022, when Moscow's full-scale, countrywide onslaught began, its people have faced relentless, devastating attacks.
Despite repeated appeals, the world has failed to stop the carnage. And yet Ukraine, outnumbered and outgunned, has continued to fight back.
A no longer hypothetical question becomes ever more real and urgent: what if Ukraine falls? Answer: Ukraine's collapse…would amount to an epic western strategic failure matching or exceeding the Afghanistan and Iraq calamities.
While there has been no big Russian breakthrough, for Ukraine's pinned-down, under-supplied defenders the war is now a daily existential struggle.
