They simply solidified the areas dominated by Russian Nationals that voted to become part of Russia which Ukraine is still attempting to ethnically cleanse.

We are the baddies. Yes we are.

Bakhmut, it may not count since it was a group of mercenaries that won the battle.

Approximately 20% of Ukraine which is basically all the Russian speaking areas are controlled by Russia and have been for over a year, that doesn’t appear to be changing anytime soon, despite a much hyped counteroffensive.

Personally, I don’t care at all for either country, other than it’s a losing situation for the USA.

--- "What battlefield gains has Russia made? Name one in the last year."

What an interesting question. It is probably apt for the pro-Z and pro-P types, but the "not my circus and not my clown" contingent sees a completely different context to the whole mess. One which your "tar baby" question simply does not lure in.

US Debt Clock
Your kids and mine are deep in debt, and it's growing rapidly, all the while two non-NATO thugs are duking it out, and we are seeing our kids fall ever deeper in debt ( $254K per taxpayer, in case you won't look to the debt clock ). Yea, you!
