  1. Meloni may say what she wants, there's still support for Ukraine among the people in Central, Northern and Eastern Europe. Not from everyone, of course. But in the Baltics, Poland, Czechia - every day, there's an event to support Ukraine. A charity auction, making candles, knitting sweaters, collecting money for drones, military vehicles, radars etc. I'm Czech, and Czechs and Slovaks have just collected money for a specialized vehicle in 12 hours. (Yes, not everyone in Slovakia voted for Fico 🙂 )

  2. Absolutely. A guy from my country fighting in Ukraine said that in September, Ukraine decided to abandon the NATO strategy and use more guerilla-style fighting, because the NATO strategy simply wasn't working without all the NATO weaponry.

  3. Nope, half of it will be taught under the title "What NOT to do" and half of it under the title "What to do, absolutely". Both sides in this war have been showing incredible stupidity in some aspects and very good decisions in others. (This info is from the guys in foreign legions fighting in Ukraine). Both sides make strategic mistakes. Ukrainians are slightly faster in learning from their mistakes, but Russians have started, too. Ukrainians know how to explain their situation on the internet, are good at persuading but don't have enough diplomatic finesse when dealing with world leaders. Russians know how to use propaganda but have alienated themselves from some of their allies with arrogance and unreliability. Ukrainians are good at flexibility and alternative solutions, Russians know how to dig themselves in and use chaos to create problems from Ukrainians (laying mines totally randomly).

  4. I never expected this war to be over quickly, because most European wars were VERY far from being over quickly.
