Billions of dollars and months of training, yet Ukraine still managed to miserably fail with it's 2023 counter-offensive. Minimal progress which is being rapidly reversed by Russian efforts this year.
Avdiivka - lost. Krynki - lost. Robotyne to follow in the coming weeks. Ukrainians are losing ground all over the front lines.
Manpower shortages, artillery shortages, ammo shortages. The western media narratives have shifted from "Ukraine can beat Russia on the battlefield" to "Let's help Ukraine just enough to ensure that it's able to negotiate on victor's terms." I guess that means that Ukraine can kiss it's "1991 borders" ambitions good-bye.
Unless the infamous Ukrainian Armed Forces "Twitter/Reddit/FB/IG/HC Brigades" get involved in this war directly (tangs, Andy, Max, AlCp, thirdgo and the lot), I don't see how this war can end in Ukraine's favour.
