For Ukraine, the worst-case scenario could be something that we can call the Afghanistan Moment. It’s when the Biden administration suddenly dropped its support for Afghanistan after 20 years of war and left Afghanistan people at the mercy of the enemy.
The upcoming November 8th midterm election will throw the dice and, to some degree, decide the fate of Ukraine's independence and the Ukrainian people as a nation.
The only thing that could save Ukraine is the Ukrainian people themselves. Слава Україні!

There's a new word in the Russian language: могилизейшен. It's a combo of two words: могила (grave) and mobilisation; in English, it could sound like gravilization or mobilization into the grave.
It's a bitter and sarcastic nickname for Putin's mobilisation policy to call up 300,000 Russian men for a senseless, suicidal war in Ukraine. Those eligible to be mobilised have just two options: either become cannon fodder in Ukraine or run away to save their lives.

Nobel Peace Prize to three human rights groups in Belarus, Ukraine, and Russia is a powerful sign of continuing global struggle between democracy and newly resurrected autocracy. Paradoxically, this Peace Prize is an act of ideological war by itself between two political systems, between East and West, between the past and future of humanity.… Unfortunately, a future could be cloudy and rainy, and history could be easily repackaged and romanticized for hungry and disoriented masses to digest.
