Putin's purpose in launching a full-scale invasion of Ukraine is to prevent Ukraine from joining NATO andEuropean UnionHowever, after almost two years of war, Ukraine is now closer than ever to NATO andEuropean Union。This means that Putin's strategic goals have failed, and he has lost Ukraine forever. This is a major strategic setback for Russia.
Ukraine has made great efforts in the war, pushing its ownMilitarymodernization and reform process, and actively cooperate with NATOEuropean Unioncooperation to enhance security and development. These initiatives have made Ukraine a NATO andEuropean UnionA strong partner. At the same time,InternationalSociety against RussiaMilitaryThe invasion has been widely condemned and has provided Ukraine with important political, economic and ...MilitaryIn the tank. All this makes Putin's strategic goals unattainable, and Russia's grip on Ukraine is constantly weakening.
In addition to losing Ukraine, Putin must also face the huge cost of the war. Russia lost hundreds of thousands of them in the warMilitarypersonnel, a large number of tanks and aircraft were lost. At the same time, Russia is facing economic difficulties, with rising inflation and declining living standards of the population. These are all serious consequences of the Russian war.
In addition, Russia is facing a sharp deterioration of the geopolitical environment during the war. With the signing of a defense cooperation agreement between the United States and Finland,U.S. militaryFor the first time, U.S. fighters were stationed in Finland and were able to quickly cover the Sea of Barron. In addition, NATO has also established a Nordic defense system with Finland as the core, which puts Russia in a more passive position strategically. U.S. militaryin FinlandRovaniemiThe airbase and the Norwegian Evnes airbase are stationed, the most important nuclear submarine base in RussiaMurmanskIt's only a seven-hour drive, which means:U.S. militaryYesMurmanskMake a quick blow. All this has put tremendous geopolitical pressure on Russia.
At a recent year-end press conference, Putin once again stressed that his goal is to make Ukraine "go."Military"Azification" and "denazification". At the same time, Ukraine and its supporters have insisted on fighting until Russian forces are driven out of all occupied Ukrainian territories, showing that Ukraine and its supporters are not afraid of the Russian threat and are courageously defending their national sovereignty.
Why do Ukraine and its supporters insist on fighting until Russia is defeated?Studies by institutions in Britain, Germany, and the Netherlands believe that if the war is truce, Russia will continue to expand its military no matter what happens, and its army will have the strength to attack Europe. Russia will increase its military strength by 280,000 per year, which will reach 1.7 million in 6 years and 2.8 million in 10 years. If Europe does not act, it will once again be shrouded in fear by the Russian armyInternationalOrder will be threatened with disruption.
In addition, according to the Financial Times, Russia's victory in the war will have the following five main consequences: first, Ukraine will never be able to reclaim the occupied lands;Secondly, any agreement that Ukraine will sign with Russia will lose its value;Third, Russia will control a quarter of the world's wheat exports, and its ability to make grain will increaseFourth, other countries may follow Russia's lead and use force to undermineInternationalOrder;In the end, NATO will lose its influence and will not be able to protect Ukraine.
In the face of Russia's attack on UkraineMilitaryaggression, Ukrainian supporters are also actively striving for itInternationalSocial support. They are communicating Ukraine's demands to other countries through diplomatic channels and enlisting their support. Ukraine's efforts were echoed,InternationalSociety against RussiaMilitaryThe aggression was widely condemned and provided for Ukraine political, economic andMilitaryAid.
Ukraine supporters are also aware that Russia will continue to expand its military power and pose a threat to Europe if the war is suspended. Ukraine and its supporters fear that if the Russian army continues to grow, its influence in Europe will be further strengthened, leaving European countries unable to act autonomously. Therefore, they are determined to hold on to the war until the Russian army is driven out of all occupied Ukrainian territories.
The reason why Ukraine's supporters are persisting is to preserve their national sovereignty, prevent Russia from continuing to expand its power, and protect the security and stability of European countries. They know itRussian militaryThe seriousness of the threat and realize that only by defeating Russia can their country get long-term peace and security. This made them resolutely resist Russia, for which they made great efforts and sacrifices.
