The next World War looks ever more likely.
Who benefits?
Why is there so little effort being spent to stop the killing and destruction?

Why is there so little effort being spent to stop the killing and destruction?

Putin cannot back out because, as a dictator, he may end up overthrown.

Ukraine cannot back out because, they would cease to exist.

Who benefits?

China is the power which seems to benefit the most: Cheap Russian oil, and its main potential antagonists, Russia, the USA, and Europe expend enormous resources on the war.

However, India is also a potential antagonist, and it gains almost as much as China, with cheap oil.

So you want to increase funding to the UKR armed forces? They seem to be doing well so far.

you’re asking in the wrong language. if the Russians stop fighting today there would be peace, if the Ukrainians stop there would be no more Ukraine.
