It’s tough to see the impact of the ongoing conflict on Ukraine, given the evolving Russian tactics and firepower. Sometimes, what's reported might not capture all the resilience and effort on Ukraine's side, but history shows that conflicts don't always pan out as expected. Supporting the people affected there in any way we can feels more crucial than ever. Let's hope for some positive developments and peace efforts, huh?

The only way this can turn around for Ukraine is a the war expanding into a (more) direct conflict between Russia and NATO, which would create a high risk of a nuclear exchange, which is unacceptable.

Ukraine lost. The only question now is how many more of their people they'll send to pointlessly die before they start serious negotiations (i.e., not wild demands like getting Crimea). This is the months leading up to the end of WWI.
