Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

1. What is the current situation in Ukraine, and why is Russia advancing?
2. How effective is Western support for Ukraine, especially regarding military aid?
3. Is Europe capable of standing up to Russia militarily?
4. What are the implications of Trump's policies toward Ukraine and Russia?
5. Is there a realistic path to ending the war in Ukraine?

Larry C. Johnson:

1. Russia is making significant advances in Ukraine due to superior military pressure, particularly in Zaporizhia and other regions, while Ukraine’s air defenses are overwhelmed.
2. Western support, including limited aid like 10 Patriot missiles, is insufficient against Russia’s scale of attacks and ineffective in halting its progress.
3. Europe is described as incapable of matching Russia militarily and appears increasingly divided or ineffective in responding to the crisis.
4. Trump’s erratic behavior and lack of coherent strategy raise concerns, with his actions seen as potentially worsening the conflict and global instability.
5. A military defeat of Ukraine seems likely unless there is a major shift, as Russia intensifies operations and aims to consolidate territorial gains.
