KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Almost three months after Russia shocked the world by invading Ukraine, its military faces a bogged-down war, the prospect of a bigger NATO, and an opponent buoyed Sunday by wins on and off the battlefield.
Top diplomats from NATO met in Berlin with the alliance’s chief, who declared that the war “is not going as Moscow had planned.”

I keep waiting for Russia to learn and turn this around. I am quite happy they haven't so far

I agree! I think it's telling China's not dialing in with Russia, and using the distraction to make its moves south toward Korea--and that's a concern. We may just luck out and see Putin suffer a coup to oust him from his position.
One can but hope...

Perhaps Putin will find himself ousted from office and will "disappear," so to speak, via receiving a taste of his own medicine. It would be a justly-deserved <final> chapter to his dangerous existence.
Thanks for posting the article, Brother Joe!

Madman Putin thought that the people in Ukraine would just surrender to him. He wasn't prepared for a real war. That, and there are reports that he has a form of blood cancer so he my drop dead fairly soon.
