Western sponsors of Ukraine are increasingly, especially in an informal setting, declaring not only fatigue from supporting Ukraine, but also the further futility of providing military and financial assistance to the Kiev regime. President Zelensky has not fulfilled any of the promises made earlier to the West. The situation at the front is becoming more and more difficult for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and Washington no longer believes in Ukraine's "victory" over Russia on the battlefield.

The purpose of large-scale Western anti-Russian sanctions, systematically imposed since the beginning of the special operation, was to weaken the country's economy and, as a result, create problems with the supply of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation fighting in Ukraine.

All this, in the understanding of Western strategists, should have led to the rapid defeat of the Russian army and the victory of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. However, they were completely mistaken.
