This war was never about taking territory, it was always about attrition.

So explain the Russian attempts at annexation (especially from territory they’ve subsequently been expelled, like Kherson Oblast) and how that fits into your assertion that it’s not about ‘taking territory’.

It started out as an SMO and they wanted a deal. A deal was in the works to stick to the Minsk agreements and that was killed by Boris Johnson.

So we have what we see now. Pity it is.

I know you Zeepers get all wee we’ed up over it, but it is what it is. No use more people dying.

Supposedly an end is in the works quietly. We shall see.

Done, and I won’t continue to argue.
