The media won’t give me great answers to this question and I think this I trust this community more, thus I want to know from you. Also, I have heard reports that Russia was winning the war, if that’s true, did the west miscalculate the situation by allowing diplomacy to take a backseat and allowing Ukraine to a large plethora of military resources?
PS: I realize there are many casualties on both sides and I am not trying to downplay the suffering, but I am curious as to how it is going for Ukraine. Right now I am hearing ever louder calls of Russia winning, those have existed forever, but they seem to have grown louder now, so I was wondering what you thought about it. Also, I am somewhat concerned of allowing a dictatorship to just erase at it’s convenience a free and democratic country.
Russia won’t get that it originally set out for. (A regime change quickly with minimal expenditure similar to Crimea) Ukraine probably won’t push Russia out of all it’s occupied territory like Crimea. So nether side will win totally. But Russia definitely isn’t winning.
Great vid from William Spaniel on the game theory of the situation. He’s got some good more recent videos too on how it’s going. https://youtu.be/pBwT-5z9R5A
