    While the Ukrainian attack has revealed weaknesses in Russian defences and changed the public narrative of the conflict, Russian officials said Ukraine’s “terrorist invasion” would not change the course of the war.

    The tone in official Russian statements the last 2-3 weeks tells us something completely different.

    Shit ain’t fun no more when it shows that Ukraine were able to choose allies that are better than China, India and Iran, right?

    Things might still end badly for Ukraine but they will not end up selling themselves cheap. Even if Russia were able to gain full control over Ukraine, the cost of keeping the control is way too high compared to what Russia can afford.

      Putin tried to make history but it’ll be Zelensky and the Ukrainian people who will be celebrated when this is all done. Putin is looking likely to be the face of the fall of the second Soviet Union (members: 1)

        Putin will always be in the history books as the only one that has united so many European countries…
