NEW YORK, December 15. /TASS/. Ukraine is unable to win the conflict with Russia and the US is well aware of that, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in an interview with NBC News.

"You [the US] are telling them [the Ukrainians] - go and die," Peskov said. "Don’t worry, we will give you enough money and enough armaments, but you should go and die. And you know pretty well that they cannot win," he added.

CNN reported earlier, citing Western intelligence estimates, that without support from the US and other NATO countries, Ukraine might be defeated by Russia by the summer of 2024. The Economist, in turn, said that the West’s "lethargy" might allow Russia to win.
