Putin Has 'no Way Out' Of Failed Ukraine Invasion by ryloy: 6:51am On Mar 20, 2022
Russian President Vladimir Putin has "no way out" of his weeks-long invasion of Ukraine, according to former U.S. Ambassador to NATO Kurt Volker.

While some foreign policy experts have expressed surprise that Russia's Feb. 24 invasion of Ukraine has continued into mid-March, Volker says he expected Ukraine to show strong resistance, and Putin has only dug himself into a deeper hole by continuing his war against the sovereign nation without showing any indication of agreeing to a peace deal so far.

"Putin who has no way out. He has gone all-in in this military effort to take over Ukraine. And it's failing," Volker, former U.S. Special Representative for Ukraine Negotiations, told Fox News Digital. "So, he's just going to keep doubling down and doubling down on a military victory that is looking increasingly unlikely."

Putin is demanding Ukraine demilitarize, recognize Russian control over Crimea and renounce any efforts to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). NATO is an intergovernmental, military-political alliance between the United States, Canada and a number of European countries. NATO was founded after World War II in 1949 in an effort to protect European countries within the alliance against threats from Russia — then the Soviet Union.

Ukraine is not part of NATO, which plays no formal role in Russia's war with Ukraine, but Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksyy has called on alliance officials to implement a no-fly zone over his country to stop Russian missile attacks. Most NATO officials have thus far denied those requests, citing concerns of a third world war against Russia.

Volker said he "doesn't see" Ukraine bowing to Putin's demands "at all," with the possible exception of agreeing not to recognize Ukraine as a NATO ally. He does not expect Ukraine to demilitarize but instead strengthen its military and "look for other security guarantees."

He added that Ukrainians "feel like time is on their side now."

Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is demanding Russia commit to a cease-fire and withdraw their forces from Ukraine, which Volker does not think is likely in the near future but may happen eventually.

Putin and his puppets are big time jokers.. they were boasting about Russia taking over Ukraine in 48hr..from 48hr to he's gonna capture Ukraine on Sunday..
From Sunday till today this man is yet to capture kyiv and remove zelensky from power...

To the extent that some Putin's puppet switched to something like "Russia army are reserving their best weapon and artilleries" undecided
cheesy
The truth is that In a military sense.. Putin can keep pouring money and men into Ukraine to hold onto his gainsnand capture the major cites and declare victory but it’s a losing effort...

Evaluations of military balance of power remind me of the United States occupation of South Vietnam in 1965...The U.S. Army occupied Vietnam largely without organized resistance...It was only after USA had 250,000 men in Vietnam as part of Operation Rolling Thunder in 1965 that they started running into serious resistance...And it escalated for 4 years coming to a climax during the Tet Offensive in 1969...

And all the major fighting happened AFTER not before the US had occupied all of South Vietnam in 1965...
Nothing Russia does is going to convince the Ukrainians...

In Ukraine today there is serious resistance from the beginning..together with millions of refugees...
There is going to be a nasty and prolonged guerilla war rather like Afghanistan or Vietnam... The Russian economy will become a dependent rump state of China.. isolated from the rest of the World as during the height of the Cold War...

Putin has fatally miscalculated in launching this operation..now the consequences for Russia are only starting...

He can occupy cities and make Ukraine suffer and force millions of refugees into permanent exile but he cannot really conquer... He has no exit strategy...It’s going to cost more money and more economic suffering than Russia can afford...watch and see how it plays out..

But Putin urchins said Ukraine would be done with in matter of three days.

Those fools have all crawled back to their holes.

It’s surprising to see that same set of fools who support Buhari and Tinubu are same idiots supporting Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.

This clearly demonstrates that their thought process is warped and they reason from anywhere else but their brain.

Ndi ala!

the only thing left for putin to achieve in this invasion is regime change

These Westerners are so ignorant it hurts. Hahahahaha. Russia made it clear from day 1 they weren’t in Ukraine to occupy territories.
They are there to totally liberate Donbass, demilitarize and denazificate Ukraine.
And that is going on well!
If there were to employ NATO’s war template, this operation would have been over long time ago because they would have leveled the cities.
NATO should stop panicking and releasing useless opinions. Hahahahaha

I am yet to understand the rationale by some people in the us (not us presidency) are pursuing this narrative that Ukraine is gaining the upper hand


It is totally not in sync with what is happening o!

Russia has literally not only surrounded the livewire towns,cities and provinces of ukraine.the Russia's are determinate of what actually moves in and out of uiraine


As in Russia is it focussed on lyiv (they have basically bshut out the polish border).
Some people are still saying Ukraine is in it.
How?
