That's right and as long as US and western allies keep up with deliveries there is a chance for Ukraine to achieve its objectives.

Ideally leading to Russian collapse.

Before you get bent out of shape about it is in possible...

Recent history does demonstrate that invading country that faces a determined opposition will generally have to go home with their dicks tucked.

How long can Russia spin this shot at home esp as Ukraine is striking critical assets deep within Russia.

And the west hasn't even given Ukraine the best shit and permission to use it as needed.

Cool so you want a nuclear war.

Okay Brzezinski. Russia hardly faces a determined opposition: it faces a dwindling supply of forced conscripts.

Well you got nothing to worry about then. Kyiv by winter?

I don’t think they even want Kyiv. Western Ukraine is rife of neo-Nazis, making it impossible to occupy long-term.

I thought they were liberating rather than occupying?

The difference, geographically, between “liberating” and “occupying” can be found in the the decade-long civil war after the US-backed 2014 coup and the Minsk Accords. Kit Klarenberg: Civil War in Donbass 10 Years On
