French Geopolitician: No One in Biden Administration Believes Ukraine Will Win
(Baonghean.vn) - French expert, Director of the Institute for Strategic and International Relations Pascal Boniface said that even the most enthusiastic supporters of Ukraine in the US do not believe Kiev can defeat Russia.

According to RT on May 3, sharing on LCI channel (France) after a trip to Washington, French expert, Director of the Institute for Strategic and International Relations Pascal Boniface said that the West is confusing between what is desired and what is reality. They can repeat many times that Russia "should not" win, but the truth is different.
Expert Pascal Boniface assessed that on the Ukrainian side, there have been many changes in the Commander-in-Chief's personnel, but these are "simply changes in personnel" and the results on the front are the same. The fact that Ukraine has fewer soldiers than the Russian army has been a long-standing fact.
According to Boniface, the Russia-Ukraine war is a battle of numbers. "For a very long time, we believed that war today has become a matter of technology. But in this case, we are still back to the problem of numbers," the expert said.
Boniface analyzed that when Western and American aid was blocked for 6 months due to domestic political problems, one side of the conflict became weaker. Meanwhile, the Russian army organized itself, learned many initial lessons, and now they are moving forward.
"In fact, I believe that in many debates we confuse what is possible with what is desirable. The French president said that 'Russia cannot and should not win the war', but 'cannot' and 'should not' are two completely different things. There is a fact about the number of weapons and soldiers. Russia has a population 4.5 times larger than Ukraine - and that is a big problem," Boniface pointed out.
According to the director of the French Institute for Strategic and International Relations, the war has made the Ukrainian people tired, leading to less participation and less enthusiasm in defending the territory. "This is the truth," said Mr. Boniface.
Boniface added that people close to US President Joe Biden said none of them believed Ukraine would win. "No one in Washington thinks Ukraine can win," the French expert shared./.
