Ukraine Pleads for More Funding as War with Russia Nears Two-Year Mark
Waning Western Support and Potential War Crimes Add to the Complexity of the Ongoing Conflict
- Ukraine's war with Russia is nearing its two-year mark, with Ukrainians pleading for more funding from allies to fight back following a failed counteroffensive last year.
- Support for Ukraine in the EU and the US is waning, with political disagreements and conditions stalling aid packages.
- Human rights organizations are documenting potential war crimes by Russia, including the use of starvation as a method of warfare.
- Ukraine's counteroffensive efforts have failed, partly due to delayed starts that allowed Russian troops to prepare their defenses.
- Ukrainian civilians continue to endure the effects of the war, living in fear of continued Russian attacks.
