    you’ve bled half of your able-bodied men to either the frontline or the border.

    It’s Russia who spills Ukrainian blood, let’s be clear about that.

    But seeing your post history, you’re a Russian imperialist / apologist, so I guess you know that and just twist facts intentionally…

      I said “bled,” what did you think I meant? Ukraine isn’t spilling their own blood, but they’re fighting a war they can’t win.

        Of course Ukraine can win. But I understand why a Russian imperialist would like everybody to believe that Russia is undefeatable (even though Russia was defeated many times).

          Ukraine’s attacking with fewer resources and fewer men in a war of attrition. Ukraine simply cannot win in that context.

          This isn’t a case where Russia overextended their supply lines and can’t sustain an offensive (unlike the start of the war). Russia is currently in dug-in defensive positions holding high ground. Don’t be delusional about Ukraine’s odds in that situation.

          Ukrainian strategy is fucking insane to watch and Russia simply isn’t incurring the losses necessary to pull out of the conflict.

            This offensive != war.

            Ukrainian strategy is fucking insane to watch and Russia simply isn’t incurring the losses necessary to pull out of the conflict.

            It will likely take a couple more years to see who will outlast who.
