Das US-Außenministerium geht davon aus, dass die Ukraine zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt den Krieg gewinnt

I mean the front is a stalemate and Russia’s AA has no answer to the amount of drones Ukraine throws at them. So, yeah.

I really hope Ukraine will „win“ this (although war only really knows losers). Realistically it is very early to make that call. The Ukrainian military also is much more realistic. It is still a horrible fight. Every day soldiers are having very though fights and infrastructure and civilians are targetted and killed. The advantage has switched back and forth and in a couple of months Russia might have the technological advantage again.

Do you even wear a suit?

Seems Ukraine has a whole fuckton of cards now then eh?

So does that mean Trump will send his investment team, I mean his diplomats, to Ukraine to find a way to squeeze money out of them for pressuring the Russian government to give up?

They would have already won if Trump didn’t live in Putin’s rectum.

Imagine where they’d be if the US hadn’t pulled most of its assistance.

I’m not sure the current situation is winning, but it definitely looks like things are getting worse for Russia.

In previous years Ukraine had to rely on ingenuity and trickery to strike back at Russia, like sending a small force into an unprotected part of Russia to make a mess and draw attention. Now it looks like their drones have progressed to the point that they can reach far into Russia and Russia is struggling to stop them. In the West we keep receiving reports of Ukraine successfully striking refineries and military targets.

This doesn’t immediately mean that they’re pushing Russia back but the war is becoming increasingly costly for Russia. If reports are to be believed the economical situation was already bad, but if they’re beginning to lose access to gas and oil in key regions (such as Moscow) that’s no longer a problem for future years, it’s a problem in the here and now. If Ukraine keeps hitting logistical targets Russia will struggle to advance due to delayed reinforcement/supplies.

Russia is a dictatorship which only pretends to be a democracy, but if the government can’t make any progress and the people start feeling the consequences of the war that’s still a bad position to be in.

That said I’d guess it’s not enough to end the war. Russia’s leadership isn’t willing to accept a loss and while the situation is bad (and getting worse) there’s nothing really forcing them to retreat, and given their wartime economy a sudden end to the war could be catastrophic as well.

The big change is that Ukraine is successfully hollowing out their rear logistics. Trucks are being destroyed en masse at the moment. This will lead to an eventual collapse at the front. All the recent successes in Crimea are the big breakthrough.

Ukraine did indeed have all the cards, even if the couch fucker and the orange pdf file tried their hardest to have them surrender.

The perseverance, ingenuity, resilience, and bravery of the people of Ukraine is amazing to me as an American.  What a culture or group of people or mindset or whatever it is.  They dont need to „win“ or get back every inch or whatever goal to have completely left the world in awe for all of future humanity.  I dont have boots on the ground, I am only following from afar from as many sources as I can manage, but what amazing perseverance.  I really look forward to the day they get to celebrate themselves and heal and I know its not all roses and smiles but I hope us other cultures are allowed to do it with them… my lame two cents.  Keep on redditors

Russia is losing the war against Ukraine. US is losing the war against Iran. China is watching both of them fail on the world stage and not attacking Taiwan.
