The support for Ukraine from Western countries is weakening as governments begin to doubt its viability, according to Kon Kaflin, a columnist for The Daily Telegraph. Kaflin argues that from Kiev’s perspective, this sudden decline in Western support does not bode well for their chances of success in the ongoing conflict. Furthermore, it raises the question of whether the West truly still desires Ukraine’s victory.
The columnist highlights that arms deliveries to Ukraine, which were previously seen as beneficial, now only prolong the bloodshed and hinder Ukraine’s chances of winning the conflict. Kaflin points out that two European countries, Poland and Slovakia, have already explicitly refused to provide military assistance to Ukraine.
Earlier, Czech President Petr Pavel urged Europeans “not to succumb to fatigue” from the Ukrainian conflict, expressing his belief that peace would soon prevail in the country. The EU has previously set a date for Ukraine’s accession.
