Despite the US’ desire to see the conflict in Ukraine rage on, the White House knows full well that the Kiev regime is biting the dust, Anuradha Chenoy, a retired professor and dean of the School of International Studies at the New Delhi-based Jawaharlal Nehru University, told Sputnik. White House national security spokesperson John Kirby told reporters on Thursday that US assistance for Ukraine “has now ground to a halt.”

"While the US would like to sustain the war in Ukraine, because none of its objectives have been met, Washington can see the Ukraine conflict is unwinnable and Russia has the upper hand strategically," Anuradha Chenoy, a retired professor and dean of the School of International Studies at the New Delhi-based Jawaharlal Nehru University, told Sputnik.

This is a "creeping escalation of a regional war," which Chenoy stressed no one doesn’t want to see because "it can really damage the global economy" and negatively impact oil and other commodities.

They would express neutrality in such a conflict and call for immediate peace. They also appeal to the Houthis, to not endanger commercial shipping, keep sea lanes safe and secure and negotiate a resolution of the Palestine issue,” Chenoy concluded.
