According to Vyacheslav Volodin, the outcome also includes economic problems in Europe and the US, as well as a lack of manpower for the Ukrainian armed forces
MOSCOW, September 25. /TASS/. Ukraine is fated either to capitulate on Moscow’s terms or cease to exist as a state, Vyacheslav Volodin, speaker of the Russian State Duma (lower house of parliament), said.
“When speaking about the conflict in Ukraine, [US President Joe] Biden, [NATO Secretary General Jens] Stoltenberg and other Western officials have started calling it ‘a war of attrition.’ They have put huge amounts of money into militarizing the Kiev regime. Where has it gotten them? The simple facts are these: the West is experiencing weapons and ammunition shortages, people in Europe and the US have lost trust in politicians, and the Kiev regime’s counteroffensive has failed,” Volodin stated.
According to him, the outcome of the “war of attrition” also includes economic problems in Europe and the US, a lack of manpower for the Ukrainian armed forces, and ultimately bankruptcy and demographic disaster for Ukraine. “These seven facts speak for themselves: Ukraine will cease to exist as a state unless the Kiev regime capitulates on Russia’s terms,” Volodin stressed.
“More than 10.5 million people have fled Ukraine. Another 11.2 million residents of Crimea, Sevastopol, the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions decided to join Russia. Ukraine has lost 53.7% of its population since 2014,” the State Duma speaker highlighted.
Volodin noted that, in June, then-British Defense Minister Ben Wallace stated that Western countries had run out of stockpiles of those weapons that they could send to Kiev from their own national arsenals. Biden, in turn, admitted in July that the decision to provide Ukraine with cluster munitions had been driven by the fact that stocks of conventional ammunition were exhausted. “The approval ratings of EU and US leaders have hit historical lows. The share of people who disapprove of their leaders’ performance stands at 57% for Biden, at 69% for [French President Emmanuel] Macron, and at 72% for [German Chancellor Olaf] Scholz. The majority of people in the United States and European countries oppose weapons supplies to Ukraine,” the Duma speaker added.
In addition, the senior lawmaker emphasized that the NATO-backed Ukrainian military had suffered huge troop and equipment losses, while “the lack of achievements has disappointed [Kiev’s] Western sponsors.” “The economies of the Eurozone countries are going through a recession. The costs of Ukraine’s militarization have forced Germany to cut benefit payments to poor families. France has reduced the number of beneficiaries; people in need no longer receive food packages and reimbursements for drug costs. International agencies have downgraded the United States’ long-term investment rating as they expect the financial situation in the country to worsen in the next three years,” Volodin said.

I will never ever lift a finger to aid Ukraine or to screw over Russia.
I will never lift a finger to aid Russia or screw over Ukraine. Or vice versa.
I feel bad for the white folks dying and I would help them if I could, but it’s an oligarch/banker war.
The real reason for the war?
Shut down food production.
Cluster bombs on farmland should do the trick.
That is certainly a feature of it for these psychopaths . Yeah ,Ukraine was like the bread basket of eastern Europe . I think they also have wanted to bring down the Russian regime for quite some time now . Its why they were fucking around so much in Ukraine fomenting strife , building a Ukrainian Nato backed proxy army to threaten Russia with and so on , Well they “fucked around and found out ” and I’d be good with it were it not for all the innocent naive deer in the headlights average Yuri blows who have been stuffed into the meat grinder for the sake of an imperialist west that is past its sell by date but desperately thinks it can somehow hold onto its past pre eminence, by hook and crook , that it has so thoroughly squandered in all of its fucking hubris . I don’t like having to say these things ,because I am an American ,and had put quite a bit of stock into my belief in the basic ideas and principles that represent what that was supposed to mean , but for me nothing else will do but to tell things like I see them . The truth may be a bitch sometimes but its the only path to retain ones sanity and integrity .)-:
Nah, they already were giving it to the third world. That’s worse than just shutting it down.
Yep cuz folks just cant wrap their pre biased brains around the fact that this conflict got started because US/ NATO have been fucking around playing all their well worn sneaky dirty regime toppling tricks ( color revolutions / coup instigations,demonizing propaganda psyops etc ) just like they do and have been doing all over the globe for quite some time )in Ukraine since at least 2014 . The Russians of course knew it and felt they had to act in the interests of their own national security , in my humble opinion .
It has to cease to exist and the Russians know it, for as long as there’s a “Ukulele” in existence, they’re going to have problems – especially since the ashkenazi jews who started all the problems are planning to turn it into New Khazaria and “return” to their true homeland.
Greater Israel is not a place, it’s a mindset.
judea delenda est
You’re full of shit.
full of shit
Prove me wrong. They want all surviving goyim to be their slaves under noachide laws.
They want all lands under their dominion.
They target those closest first (greater israel) but ultimately no khazar theory or sephardic/ashkenazi division matters outside of their internal gay games.
Or do you consider me full of shit for saying judea delenda est?
The US has been gunning for Russia since 1991. Putin wasn’t going along with it. The arrival of this war was like a slow motion train wreck. This guy Volodin is right. The Ukraine needs to decide whether they want to continue committing suicide. They’ve probably already lost 40% of their population – who ran to Western Europe, never to return. A country with no women can’t last for long. It will be interesting to see how much more of the Ukraine that Russia officially swallows up once they restart their offensive movement. Kharkov? Sumy? Odessa? Transistria? Maybe even Kiev? Lindsay Graham is going to soil his dress.
“A country with no women can’t last for long” What the fuck you smokin’? It aint the tarts gettin’ smoked motherfucker.
They already gave up Kharkov, even though it’s what? 20 miles from their border?
They might still have an ‘offensive movement’ but they’ve avoided it for more than a year now. Remember how spring was coming up, and everyone was predicting advances and cauldrons.
Only a month after Trump was elected – partly on a platform of trying to get along with Russia, these three pieces of shit were in the Ukraine promising that (1:18) “your fight is our fight” and “2017 will be the year of offense”. This was after Minsk I & II when the Ukraine promised to respect the ethnic Russians in the east and, instead, kept bombing them. These stupid western Ukies are finding out what happens to people who rely for their security on a country on the other side of the planet.
Ukraine as a state, whether of the Soviet Union or as a country, has always depended on the good will of Russia. Listening to the sweetly whispered lies of the Western neocons was their doom from the get go.
LOL… Who’da thunk it??? Obviously Putin isn’t play’n the war game like the west has been baiting him to do. Dastardly ruskie, let’n the west bleed out in blood and treasure. Not fair I tell ya.
Seems the military is real busy burn’n jet fuel just south of me. They’re rip’n up the skies do’n who knows what, play’n war jock games or something.
