Nadin Brzezinski, there is a window of opportunity for the West to engage all the resources of NATO to unite with the Ukrainian forces and remove Putin from all Ukrainian territories. Putin is now weak (as you describe) and MUST NOT be allowed to regain strength or given time. He can do this by enticing the West into mock negotiations and essentially waiting for the West's exhaustion of willpower and resources dedicated to free Ukraine.

Boldness NOW (initially lacking) will be the safest course. Unfortunately, Joe Biden is no Horatio Nelson.

Excellent Article. Many thanks.
