This isn’t really good news. Putin can’t afford defeat so things will get very ugly. The military forces are fairly equal in abilities, but only Ukraine’s citizens are in danger and dying. Russian citizens are safe.
Not good.
I have no side to root for in this mess, but I pray for the citizens of Ukraine.
The safety of innocent civilians is also at the top of my list, but the destruction of as much of the Red Russian Army as possible is definitely second.
Not because I necessarily support Ukraine's current government, but because if the Russians incur significant losses, the chances of this current conflict somehow even accidentally expanding into a war with NATO will be reduced significantly.
It could also serve as a warning to China that any assault into Taiwan might not go according to plan, either.
