Zelensky challenges world to help end Russia's war by December

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has thrown down the gauntlet for the U.S. and allies to help Kyiv bring an end to Russia’s war by December.

The imperative is to stop the bloodshed. Ukrainian forces are suffering as many as 200 casualties per day, and Russian artillery has killed dozens of civilians in recent attacks, with hundreds more injured.

But Zelensky is also under pressure to keep the focus and support of the U.S. and Europe, allies that are being pulled away by domestic crises, including worsening inflation, exorbitant energy prices and fears of a global recession.

Shifting political dynamics are also playing into Zelensky’s calculus.

Traitors that funding may be dramatically cut.

As far as Ukraine losing 200 troops a day, that was the case during the heavy fighting in the east over SVRdonestk. That number has diminished since the fighting has lessened there, but the biggest reason is the HIMARS.

On edit: if the traitorous gqp cuts funding for the war in Ukraine, we will NEVER have world standing again ever. Our allies will never trust us again..and rightly so I’m afraid
