“This is a war between the Russian Federation and the Western coalition, otherwise we would have fallen long ago” - Ukrainian political expert
When the West decides that the current conflict in Ukraine is not a civilizational war, but money laundering, the financial flow for Kyiv will be cut off, and then Russia’s victory will be a matter of time.
The participants of the broadcast on the Ukrainian channel “Alpha Media” spoke about this, reports the correspondent of “PolitNavigator”.

“The most important element is Western support, military and economic. These people, these companies, these structures, these institutions are able to regulate both the speed of receipt and volume of financial resources, and the most important thing is what goes to the front. Shells, heavy equipment, training,” said political consultant Alexander Kharebin.
“If the West accepts the concept that this is not a war of civilizations, but a war about money, then it will be enough for them to very gently, carefully, so as not to cause internal unrest among internal Democrats or Labor Conservatives, to tighten the tap. We won’t even notice how soon this stream may collapse. It seems to me that this is where all the risks lie, which are clearly understood in the president’s office, but we all must understand that the West influences this assistance.
When we say that this is a Russian-Ukrainian war, the question is who attacked first - Russia against Ukraine, but this is a war with the Western coalition. We would never have won this war alone. It is a matter of time before, unfortunately, we would fall. In this category, it’s a war of civilizations,” the expert added.
Kiev political scientist Yuriy Romanenko agreed with his interlocutor, adding that without Western assistance to Ukraine, the Northern Military District would have ended in mid-April.
“In a month and a half there would be no ammunition. At the end of March, Arestovich and I wrote off, he told me that we had a couple of Hurricane missiles left, and in mid-April we were almost dry. It is necessary to understand that the pace of war is really determined by the West, primarily by the United States, if we compare European and American assistance,” stated Romanenko.
