Putin has wasted US$211b since the 24th of Feb 22 (Reuters), at 790 days that is almost US$267m per day, all to not accomplish a single objective, great work!

Well actually, he’s -2 on Nato expansion, we’ll ignore his horrendous military losses that are already factors higher than the US ever sustained ever.

Now just to correct some of your inaccuracies, Putin's war against Ukraine started in 2014, that makes it 10 years of failing to accomplish his objectives where the US managed to at least occupy the entirety of Afghanistan. Also Putin occupies 18% of Ukraine, not 20%.

18% versus the incorrectly claimed 20% is important because tt has taken Putin the last 6 months to occupy 0.06% of Ukraine, so the difference between saying 18% and 20% is actually massive, or about 16 years of Putin fighting and failing at that rate just to occupy another 2%. That in contrast to where Putin was supposed to conquer Ukraine in 3 days shows just how abysmal his failure of a war has been.

Also emphasising how large Ukraine is only highlights further that Putin has zero chance of ever conquering it, based on his abysmal pace at present.

So no, not slow, just failure.

Sure.

Tell all of these stories to the hundreds of thousands seriously injured Ukrainians, and their families.

Maybe the fact that Putin spent 211bn on this war is supposed to make them feel better about the fact that they lost and eye/leg/arm over Zelensky's stupidity in going along with NATO's expansionist ambitions.
