The last 6 months or so has seen a vicious war of attrition unfold
in towns like Ugledar, Soledar and Bakhmut. But this should not be interpreted
as a stalemate, as those struggles seems to have degraded the quantity of functional
Russian equipment and depleted their fighting manpower. Will the much-vaunted
spring offensive and defeat of its forces in 2023 finally bring an end to
Russia’s genocidal and pointless war against its neighbour? And how fragile
would Russia’s autocratic, propaganda-controlled system actually be after a
major humiliation on the battlefield?

and military analyst, based in Denmark. He specialises in naval warfare and
strategy, but in today’s video we are going to be talking much more about the
ground campaign in Ukraine.
