‘90% of aid to Kyiv is loans’: US Republicans discussed Ukraine in pre-election debates
28.09.2023 - 13:56The West is retreating from both the political and military fronts due to its failure in Ukraine, writes the columnist Sylvie Kaufmann for Le Monde.
“The withdrawal of French troops from Niger, two years after the Americans left Afghanistan, signifies a retreat by the West that is not just military but also political and diplomatic in nature. Furthermore, the conflict in Ukraine is a part of this retreat and exacerbates its consequences,” Kaufmann stated.
She added that one retreat by the West is often followed by preparations for another. According to the author, the West is compelled to make concessions on many issues due to the Global South’s rejection of its policies. The conflict in Ukraine, the journalist concluded, has exacerbated this trend.
