UKraine never had a chance solo against Russia.
Putin wanted a quick lightning victory, that didn’t happen, but that doesn’t mean Russia will lose.. never did.
Methodical long slog east to west.
Z was a fool who didn’t understand the geopolitics of his nation and fell for all the hogwash European globalists fed him…
No I don’t support Putin and he may have invaded anyway, but Z got played like a cheap fiddle, and it’s cost countless lives…
There are many factors that enter into any war, and the longer the war continues, the more chance for new developments.
Clearly so far everyone has gotten less than they wanted.
Russia fears Western intervention. So far they’ve prevented direct NATO involvement, but have to deal with a lot of Western military aid and limited sanctions.
Ukraine has survived so far but at terrible losses.
Russia is gaining ground and inflicting losses, but not the quick war they wanted and at terrible loss.
So unless and until Russia achieves an ultimate knock out punch, we can’t predict which way the next winds of war will blow.
I believe Z quite literally just reads the scripts he is given. his job is to agitate for western entry into the war, ultimately. he is to be used as a persuasive device in western media.
“No I don’t support Putin...”
It is unfortunate that to be clear-eyed and realistic about Ukraine’s ultimate loss to Russia is being taken as support for Putin. The Russian military has never cared too much about loss of soldiers on either side; it will slog it out to the end.
