      Every once and awhile when on Reddit I see a comment like "how's Ukraine doing? Not been following along" and the responses are along the lines of "they're grinding Russia down", "they retook allllll the capital territory so they've basically won", "it's almost winter and all the Russians will freeze to death", etc. So in short yes.

        Aren't the Russians trying to push this to winter because they anticipate Europe will withdraw its support when it is desperate to heat itself?

          I won't pretend to know there plan but Europe will indeed need to heat homes... And they don't have magic to replace oil.

          Mostly I think it's hilarious that libs think Russians? They have no idea how to operate in the winter. Famously a summery people.

      Zelensky is waiting for the Steiner's counter-attack that will surely push the russians back to the gates of Moscow

        Don't call them Russians the evil Muscovites stole that word from another group that literally no American would ever be able to distinguish from a Russian.

      They already won when they cancelled Moscow.
