Who's winning the war in Ukraine? - Lemmy

external-link
The media won’t give me great answers to this question and I think this I trust this community more, thus I want to know from you. Also, I have heard reports that Russia was winning the war, if that’s true, did the west miscalculate the situation by allowing diplomacy to take a backseat and allowing Ukraine to a large plethora of military resources? PS: I realize there are many casualties on both sides and I am not trying to downplay the suffering, but I am curious as to how it is going for Ukraine. Right now I am hearing ever louder calls of Russia winning, those have existed forever, but they seem to have grown louder now, so I was wondering what you thought about it. Also, I am somewhat concerned of allowing a dictatorship to just erase at it’s convenience a free and democratic country.

    Pre-invasion: Putin Laments Soviet Breakup As Demise Of ‘Historical Russia,’ Amid Ukraine Fears

    June 2022: 'Taking it back’: Vladimir Putin likens self to Peter the Great. The Russian president draws parallels between Peter the Great’s founding of St Petersburg and modern-day Russia’s ambitions.

    I don’t think he literally wants the USSR 2.0,.but he yearns to recreate the losition of power Russia enjoyed on the world stage as a consequemce of that formation.

      Referencing 200 year old history in a random speech is not a war goal any more than a random Ukrainian with an American flag and a history book talking about the American independence war is actualy inspiration for Ukraine’s stand against Russia.

      “There is no state in between. A country is either sovereign or a colony,” he said.

      Where is the lie? He is absolutely correct here, not because he is a Marxist or understands imperialism lol, he just stumbles upon the correct take because it is absolutely obvious to every global south country. Ukraine is not a sovereign country under any measure. Certainly without western help during this war it wouldn’t even be a country anymore amid total economic and social collapse.
