Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mark Milley says Kiev can only hope for a political solution
Ukraine's chances of a near-term military victory over Russia are not high, top US general Mark Milley has cautioned. He noted that despite Kiev's recent advances on the battlefield and the capture of the city of Kherson, Moscow still has a significant combat presence in the country.
Speaking at a news conference at the Pentagon on Wednesday, Milley stated that 'the probability of a Ukrainian military victory defined as kicking the Russians out of all of Ukraine to include what they define or what the claim is Crimea, the probability of that happening anytime soon is not high, militarily.'
The general noted, however, that there was a possibility of a 'political solution' that would see Russia withdraw from territories Ukraine claims as its own, adding that Russia 'is on its back' right now and that Ukraine needs to negotiate from a 'position of strength.'
Milley also reiterated Washington's support for Kiev and vowed to continue for as long as it takes - a statement that was echoed by US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, who also took part in the press conference.
Russia, meanwhile, says it will continue its military operation until all the goals are met. Moscow says it ordered its forces to enter the country in late February in order to protect the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, which had been under constant attack from Kiev's forces since 2014 when a coup overthrew the nation's elected government.
In October, the Donbass republics as well as the former Ukrainian regions of Kherson and Zaporozhye officially joined the Russian Federation after a referendum. President Vladimir Putin vowed to consider the residents of these regions as Russian citizens 'forever' and promised to protect the territories 'with all [Russia's] strength and resources'" (17 November 2022 17:13). https://www.rt.com/news/566708-ukraine-military-victory-unlikely/Supplementary this article (very selectively) references Milley's speech:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoxCo1mXzEE&t=118s #NewspaperUSBrdshtTheWashingtonPost (16 November 2022). For example, the article conveniently skips over Milley framing statements where he explains that "the probability of Russia achieving its strategic objectives of conquering Ukraine, of overrunning Ukraine, the probability of that happening is close to zero".
Addendum interestingly, despite their ban, articles such as this one, which seem to originate on Russian state-sponsored media channels, continue to be accessed i.e. #AdvocacyUKInstituteForStrategicDialogueISD "ISD designed a case study approach that looked at RT articles about Ukrainians seeking refuge in Europe. This Dispatch outlines how such articles have found their way to European audiences despite the EU-wide ban on the outlet's content." https://www.isdglobal.org/digital_dispatches/rt-articles-are-finding-their-way-to-european-audiences-but-how/ As an example, this YT channel links to this site: https://politicsinfocus.com/, which is registered in #ToponymEuropeNordicIcelandReykjavik and according to a Whois look-up https://who.is/whois/politicsinfocus.com, was registered on 13 March 2022 (17 days after #ToponymRussia's #2022_InvasionOfUkraine on 24 February 2022 and 11 days after the EU imposes a ban on Russian state-controlled media outlets RT and #NMRUSputnikNews on 2 March).

"What does it actually mean when somebody complains about political correctness?" #CaricaturistTomToles #NewspaperUSBrdshtTheWashingtonPost (5 January 2016).
#PoliticallyCorrectPC #PhenomnBigotrySupplementary "[Shamira] Ibrahim pointed out that in addition to re-waging the war on political correctness that dominated the 1990s by repackaging it as a war on cancel culture, right-wing conservatives have also 'attempted to launch the same rhetorical battles' across numerous fronts, attempting to rebrand the same calls for accountability and consequences as 'woke brigade, digital lynch mobs, outrage culture and call-out culture.' Indeed, it's because of the collective organizational power that online spaces provide to marginalized communities, she argued, that anti-cancel culture rhetoric focuses on demonizing them."

"Black American folk singer-songwriter Huddie Ledbetter, a.k.a. Lead Belly, uses the phrase near the end of the recording of his 1938 song 'Scottsboro Boys', which tells the story of nine black teenagers accused of raping two white women, saying: 'I advise everybody, be a little careful when they go along through there-best stay woke, keep their eyes open'. [14][15] Aja Romano writes in Vox that this represents 'Black Americans' need to be aware of racially motivated threats and the potential dangers of white America.'[16] J, Saunders Redding recorded a comment from an African American United Mine Workers official in 1940, stating: 'Let me tell you buddy. Waking up is a damn sight harder than going to sleep, but we'll stay woke up longer.'[17]
By the mid-20th century, woke had come to mean 'well-informed' or 'aware', [18] especially in a political or cultural sense. [9] The Oxford English Dictionary traces the earliest such usage to a 1962 New York Times Magazine article titled 'If You're Woke You Dig It' [19] by African-American novelist William Melvin Kelley, describing the appropriation of African American slang by white beatniks.

#WebsiteSnopes "The word 'woke' is broadly used to describe a state of being 'aware of and actively attentive to important facts and issues especially of racial and social injustice' according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary. While it originated from African American Vernacular English (AAVE) in the early part of the 20th century, the term has become a common part of American slang.
Its usage has evolved and grown so much that conservatives now use it as a pejorative to refer to progressives or left-leaning liberals." [fact-checked]
