You call half a trillion dollar damage a win?

Russia got Donbass, Karkov, a bridge to Crimea, the denazification of the Azov, and is still advancing.

And the cherry on top, they are getting free weapons from the west.

I was thinking more a human rights violation.

Donbass, Karkov, a bridge to Crimea

I'm not sure how much good that land bridge to their puppets in the Donbass will do them. It's a long, narrow strip that will be hard to defend, and I have my doubts about how much Ukraine is willing to promise not to take back what Russia stole.

And the cherry on top, they are getting free weapons from the west.

They might need some after having Ukrainian farmers stealing their conga line of tanks.
