Russia Can Still Win In Ukraine Despite Setbacks-Western Officials by Firstcitizen(op): 3:39pm On Apr 22, 2022
Russian President Vladimir Putin could still win in Ukraine despite failing in his pre-war objectives, Western officials said on Thursday, adding that Russia had addressed some of the issues that had hindered it earlier on in the invasion.

Russia invaded Ukraine two months ago, and in recent weeks has refocused on the east of the country after failing to capture the capital Kyiv.

"Putin has clearly failed in meeting his initial pre-war objectives, but is still in a position to win," one official said, on condition of anonymity.

The official said that success for Russia might be the consolidation of Russian control over the Donbas and the creation a land bridge with Crimea, and in what he termed a worst-case scenario, there could be a renewed attack on Kyiv.

Ask Reuters and the UK government who are set to allow banned Russian channel, RT to return to the UK

Ask the UK government who chickened out and waived a sanctioned Russian bank today

Ask the US who increased Imports of Russian Oil by 43% In the Last Week

NATO has already admitted failure.

Arming Ukraine is more effective than sanctions, the past few weeks have shown... cool

Russia has been crying that US should stop arming Ukraine... grin

Even Ukraine is calling for more heavy weaponry rather than sanctioning Russia.

Ukrainians are ready to fight! cool

grin grin grin The Russians are making that request to legalise their shipments as legitimate targets. Like you were warned. The fact that the shipments cannot be tracked as documented poses risks to everyone as they will end up in the black market

That's to tell you that Russians have Ukrainian at heart, the reason why they said that is to bring the special military operation to a quick end to stop the destructions of lives and properties as the main aim of the special military operation is to demilitarize and denazify the Ukrainians.

Yes you are right the Ukrainians are ready to fight with there Invisible Nazis that don't suffer looses according to the reports by your Western Media, here they are I bet you will never see this in the Western media.
