..."the Ukrainians don’t simply hold out against Russia but actually defeat Russia’s massive army and force it to retreat, the positive reverberations will be felt across the globe. Populist nationalists around the world, from Viktor Orbán to Matteo Salvini to Marine Le Pen to Donald Trump, have expressed admiration for Putin’s style of strongman rule. A Russian defeat and humiliation will puncture this narrative of the advantages of authoritarian government, and might lead to a rekindling of democratic self-confidence."...

I have predicted the shaping operations would materially hurt Russian forces, but I did not predict how quickly the Russian forces would fold. Ukraine is conducting blitzkrieg. Once the enemy is retreating for their lives it’s game over. They are finished.

That's cause the little about the Russian soldiers morale is covered up by the Russian leadership. The number of high ranking officers killed as they are trying to motivate and coerce the soldiers in person. The lack of actual leadership is another reason.

The Russians are facing severe attrition to vital resources. The attrition surprisingly applies to the will to fight. They are defeated if they have no will to fight.

Will do sir. Its an honor to have been asked to return to Ukraine to do more medical work for the people of such an amazing and diverse country. They are fighting for their land, homes, and freedom. They will win because of their knowledge of their territory and their bravery. Slava Ukraine
