"It is now almost 600 days since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of
Ukraine, and the war that has followed has tested the resilience of both
countries. But it has also tested those in the west that have supported Ukraine
from the start.
This much was evident from the mixed reception Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr
Zelensky, received last week when he visited the US and Canada. Meanwhile,
tensions in Europe over support for Ukraine have flared up again.
With the Ukrainian counteroffensive still not living up to – the perhaps
inflated – expectations, we are beginning to see the first serious signs of a
fraying consensus in the west about how seriously different governments are
committed to supporting Ukraine for as long as it takes.
Zelensky’s North American visit started with a speech at the UN general
assembly in New York in which he made a passionate appeal to fellow world
leaders to uphold international law and order and support his country. While
there remains widespread backing for the principles of sovereign equality and
territorial integrity, it gets fuzzier when it comes to how to end the war."
