It's not a topic people here care to discuss much, wary of feeding Russian propaganda.

Bad news is Russian propaganda I guess. This is a bad kind of thinking. But that's how war is, according to news of each side, everyone is doing good, the enemy is losing. The most idiotic way of thinking is to actually buy this shit. Completely denying reality.

Ukraine does admit openly that it has a problem, which is new.

Could be a manoeuvre, to make the western public thinking, that NATO soldiers should be send into Ukraine

    As you say, your side is doing good, enemy is losing. But I honestly don't know how the west can believe Ukraine is winning. Russia lost some oil revenue because of some drone attacks? So what? Ukraine is only solvent due to the west's handouts. And it ain't like the west is doing any better. In fact, Russia seems perfectly capable of fighting a war for years, and is slowly winning against the combined power of the west, while the great and powerful US just lost miserably to Iran, twice.

    But burning apartment buildings and Universities in Russia are evidence of winning?
