Russia Inflicts Heavy Losses on Ukraine, West in Private Discussions for Face Saving Off-Ramp (Alexander Mercouris)

Western allies meet regularly to game out potential framework for Ukraine ceasefire as war hits 100th day.



The Western powers have allegedly prevented a negotiated peace by telling Kiev that any land for peace deal will end military support for the country.

The rest of the world doesn't really care about this war, whereas the Europeans think this is the most important thing. The rest of the world is still willing to trade with Russia meaning that the sanctions have failed. They've actually backfired on the (European) countries that relied on Ukraine or Russia for various products. However, the artificial spike in oil prices has impacted everyone.
