MORE>>>>>>>

It’s more than six months since Vladimir Putin ordered a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. In the days that followed, I remember Russian politicians, commentators and analysts on TV here predicting that what the Kremlin calls its “special military operation” would be wrapped up within days; that the Ukrainian people would greet Russian troops as liberators, and that Ukraine’s government would collapse like a pack of cards.

It didn’t.

Instead, more than six months on, the Russian army has been losing ground.

Putin is pretty much immune to consequences.

Like Trump said, “I could shoot somebody, and I wouldn’t lose voters”

His generals, however... Especially the one that told him his soldiers were endanger of excessive hugs ... That guy is going out a window.
