No one ever claimed that.

On Feb 22, everyone believed (me included) that Ukraine would last at best a few days, maybe a week.

Now, 3 months later, they have repelled a Russian attempted takeover of Kyiv, have pushed Putin’s army from around Kharkiv and prevented them from getting close to Odessa and have held ground in the east.

Is that a “win”? Yes, it is — surviving against a behemoth is a win.

Could Ukraine invade Russia? Nope, it doesn’t have the capability, it would lose home-field advantage and morale.

I gotta admit, I love the hyperautism you find here on FR.
