[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] The only way this war will end is with a negotiated settlement. The Ukranians have fought valliantly, but they are running out of men and munitions. Of course, the Russians have proven to be more "Cubs" than "Grizzlies" on the battlefield. They have shown NATO that if they ever were to start a ground war against a NATO member, "we'd smoke 'em". But the EU is tiring of the war, and there is "only so much" they will do for Ukraine. After all, "Vlad's gas pump" is a mighty strong weapon in his arsenal, and despite all the rhetoric of "we can get what we need" from elsewhere, Vlad is the cheapest and most plentiful source for such. Yes, more arms are on the way, but how many soldiers can Ukraine divert from the battles to be trained on these weapons? There are weapons within NATO's arsenal that the Ukrainians would be "ready to fight" with. Take the Soviet designed MIG fighter aircraft Poland has. The problem there is that some Ukranian верхній пістолет or otherwise "Top Gun" will "stray" into Russian territory and significantly escalate the conflict. It may not be WWIII as Joe has suggested, but it could "end badly" for Ukraine. What either side will have to give up in a negotiated settlement remains unclear to me, but each will have to give up something. [/QB][/QUOTE]
