European statements about the war in Ukraine come across as borderline delusional, treating Ukraine as if it still has a negotiating position when it no longer does.

Ukraine is taking heavy losses and running short on manpower. Other European countries are unlikely to send ground troops, limiting support to money and weapons, which may not be enough to sustain resistance against Russia.
Past rapid collapses, such as Syria's, show that once a front breaks it can implode quickly and hand over large swathes of territory. The Pentagon reportedly assesses that Ukrainian front lines are nearing collapse.
Russia holds advantages in manpower, equipment and ammunition and appears intent on continuing its offensive rather than withdrawing.
No amount of NATO funding or weapons can fully substitute for a lack of trained personnel.
Many of Ukraine's best-trained soldiers are already dead; untrained recruits are being sent to the front, and remaining eligible men are increasingly unwilling to fight.
The expectation that Ukraine will push Russia out risks a demographic catastrophe—mass loss of men aged 18–50—potentially leaving a society largely female and driven to desperate survival measures, including street-based sex work.
Some argue that certain European policymakers tacitly accept or even prefer that outcome.
Yeah, the situation shifted… some statements feel disconnected from reality.
Yeah, it's like they're ignoring how much ground Ukraine's lost. Feels more like wishful thinking than strategy.
