Hrm… Putin wants everyone to think Russia is gonna win no matter what, so the West gives up n pushes Ukraine to surrender… but the numbers say the opposite. This yr Russia has barely gained any ground while losing 40k+ soldiers a month, n Ukraine has actually taken some land back. Russian officers lie to their bosses abt how things r going, Russia can’t recruit enough new troops to replace the ones it loses, n Putin is scared to force ppl into the army b/c Russians r sick of the war. Ukraine is using drones to take out Russian troops b4 they even reach the front… so small Ukrainian units can stop way bigger Russian attacks. Russia is now bombing Ukrainian cities n power plants to break ppl’s will, but that kind of bombing has never made a country quit a war it was holding its own in. Bottom line… as long as the West keeps helping, Ukraine can keep fighting, n the goal should be making the war so costly for Putin that he takes a deal he doesn’t get to dictate.
They myth of the AEI not being total garbage. War profiteers. Science deniers. Etc.

Yeah AEI is trash, but this article is a good article and it establishes that even people like AEI think russia isn’t winning.
