2. Sorry, But There Is No Such Thing As Winning

They've Lost. In terms of Devastation to many of their cities, they've lost. In terms of former citizens, and I do mean former, who are now scattered around other countries, Never to return to Ukraine, they've lost.

In terms of COUNTLESS LIVES LOST, families destroyed, intellect for a generation, gone forever. They've lost.

And meanwhile the bombing, the deaths, the destruction, continues, day after day after day after day.

If victory is defined by not having Russia take over complete control of the entirety of Ukraine, then perhaps they've won. Or at least fought to a draw.

But they've still lost, and Russia doesn't care about it's losses, because Putin has No Soul.
