"The Cost of Hesitation: Ukraine's Allies Pay the Price"

TL;DR Summary
Satellite images reveal that while Ukraine's Western allies debated whether to send tanks and cluster munitions, Russia rapidly built extensive fortifications in occupied Ukrainian territory. The delay in providing assistance has allowed Russia to expand its defenses and hindered Ukraine's counteroffensive efforts. The pattern of hesitation and delay by Western leaders needs to change, as it not only costs Ukrainian lives but also increases the likelihood of a protracted conflict. Ukraine requires proactive support from its allies rather than excuses.
