Its even funnier that a special military operation of a matter of days devolved into Russian generals ploughing thousands of conscripts into a meatgrinder.
Yikes.
I'd expect Ukraine would be able to retake some territory if the Russians are getting beaten so badly.. why haven't they?
I think this is the real reason: there is no meatgrinder, Russia has already achieved it's initial objectives in capturing most of Eastern Ukraine, and now they are fortifying their new borders & not launching more attacks. Ukraine must be able to mount a successful offensive, but they evidently do not have the ability, Russia is too fortified to attack
Right now Ukraine has to take the L and fortify their own lines instead of attempting offensives.
