Nonsense.

Ukraine ceased to exist as an independent entity quite some time ago. It 's hanging on only because NATO and EU are propping it up.

As soon as the USA finds a new thing, and the EU/NATO realise they have been played, then Ukraine will be done.

Literally everything I said is true.

It's being propped up because it's hard to have a functioning economy during a war thats literally inside your borders.

How have EU/NATO been played may I asked?.

Can you expand on your position that this war is sapping strength from NATO? I won't comment on the EU because I am much less knowledgeable on their involvement. From what I can see of NATO actions, it doesn't seem like we are over-extending at all. We have given money and old weapons (two things of which we're in no short supply), but I don't see how that equates to sapping our strength. No NATO troops have been killed, no modern NATO weapons have been lost, and the amount of money we've spent is negligable comapred to the money going into the war machine every year already. In contrast, I see Russian men being killed, russian weapons being lost, and russian money being poured into this war; resulting in negligable gains in their positions each time.
