Please... first its “NEWSWEAK”...
Second, Russia may haver thought they could just march into Kiev in a few days, assuming little to no resistance, and that may not be what’s happening, but the idea that they are “in trouble” is comical.
It’s clear, that for whatever reason Russia has not utilized its air superiority in this campaign, and for whatever reason is trying its best NOT to just level the Ukraine.
All it would take would be a few bombing runs to flatten Kiev, clearly this is not what Russia wants to do... but claiming because they didn’t do this, and are for whatever reasons slowly marching toward the capital on the ground vs just obliterating forces through the air, does not mean that Russia is not capable.
I have said this before, and I’ll say it again...
EVERYTHING, and I do mean EVERYTHING your are reading, seeing or hearing is PROPAGANDA regarding this situation by one side or the other.
Those are good points. Will cogitate on those. Thanks for posting.

Maybe their AF is no better trained than the ground troops and don’t want to risk that revelation to the West?
The one thing you can be sure of: You are being lied to.
