“The swift fall of Izium in Kharkiv province was Russia’s worst military defeat since its troops were forced back from the Ukrainian capital Kyiv in March.”
It’s a War
Loose a battle Win a War is the norm IMO
Virtually anything from the western press should be discounted as a wet dream, nothing more.
The Russians ceding territory is how they fight in the terrain they are in. They are far superior in their strategy and tactics and are doing their best to minimize civilian harm. The Ukrainian army is as shot through with corruption as Zelensky (owner of some mighty fine properties overseas) himself. Russia is patient, have the resources, and the moral high ground in this mess.
The west is the villain, through and through. That is both the starting and the end point.
