The general consensus, certainly from a western media standpoint, is that Ukraine is being very successful right now, and will continue to push the Russian's back, out of all of Ukraine. This is expected to occur in the very short term (up to christmas) and is expected to continue into the new year. Crimea is in the sight of Ukraine in the new year. Just mentioning this here for casuals trying to figure out whats happening. Russia simply is not able to stop Ukraine right now.

nono you meant, why would america want to join ukraine into nato?

ignoring ressource politics

youre same brainwashed like santara.. 🙈

Lol, you realize that goes both fucking ways?

I wouldn't be so sure of that tbh. Capturing large urban areas is toooough, Ukraine will run into the same problems Russia was facing in Mariupol and Lyssichantsk. They will imho be able to relatively easily take back Kherson city because the Russians there are cut off from supplies, so they can just starve them out. But anything beyond that will be heavy lifting for Ukraine, particularly with the imminent onset of winter.

People were overoptimistic when it came to Russia's advances throughout this entire war, and right now, I think they are overconfident in Ukraine's ability to win back territory - particularly in the areas Russia already controlled before February, where they had years to fortify their position.
