“To simplify it for you, that means he has lost nearly half of the territory he once controlled, just 10 months ago”

I guess if you’re going to join the bunch that pretends to be 5 year olds, then I guess we’re stuck with that attitude here.

For others, Putin had ASKED for Crimea before the war started, 4% of Ukraine. He has now liberated at least 15% of the country and is well on his way to liberating FAR MORE of Ukraine, possibly all of it (although you guys will likely get to deal with the Bandera region in the far west when the new borders are drawn).

You can thank your buddies who lead NATO for this outcome...it did not have to end this way.

Putin had grabbed Crimea in 2014.

That was in violation of the 1994 Budapest agreement in which Russia signed that it would respect Ukraine’s borders.

Russia is losing thanks to Putin

Grabbing territory your country had sworn (in the 1994 Budapest agreement) to respect, is not liberating.

You probably think that in 1938 to 1942 Hitler was just “liberating” German lands, eh?
