"The Ukrainian army has not been destroyed, it did not capitulate,"
"As a country, Ukraine has every opportunity to continue its resistance and it is successfully resisting."
"Once again, Ukraine is not defeated. More than that, the Ukrainian society - regardless of what is being written about it - 82% want the conflict to end,"
"Putin has made the same mistake as Gorbachev did in 1979. He believed it would be a 'quick operation.' Moscow wanted to take over Afghanistan quickly - and look how that turned out."
Ukrainian Armed Forces have not been destroyed after nearly four years of fighting and continue to resist effectively despite initial Kremlin expectations of a rapid Kyiv takeover. Russia launched a full-scale invasion on 24 February 2022 and has reportedly lost almost 1.3 million soldiers, with more than 30,000 fatalities in December 2025 alone, exceeding Soviet Afghan war losses. Russian forces are struggling on front lines and face a risk of falling apart. Ukrainian society largely wants the conflict to end, with many believing additional pressure could precipitate Russian collapse. Observers compare the miscalculation to the Soviet intervention in Afghanistan.
