[…] But Ukraine, like Finland after Stalin’s attempted invasion of 1939-40, remains an independent and viable state. The loss of 20 per cent of its territory is painful but not fatal.
This reads more like bargaining to me. Also the Winter War comparison might fit surprisingly well, if we ignore the Telegraph’s interpretation.
Can’t wait the defeat of Ukraine to be labelled as a “defensive victory”.
Im left wondering what the average Ukrainian will think of the eu after being essentially left to die
It kind of acknowledges reality in the first half where it plainly states that Russia is winning on the ground, that sanctions won’t break Russian economy, and that the winner will dictate terms. But then it has to pour copium on the second part because you still can’t just state the truth without any qualifiers.
But ultimately it is Ukraine, not Russia, that is better placed to win the peace, even as it concedes some losses in the war
I can’t, Russia won but here’s how Ukraine is STILL winning 🤣
tf kind of doublespeak is “winning the peace”. Is that the same thing as a Moral Victory? Just give these assholes a participation trophy and tell them to move on already.
The cope at the end is pretty funny though. My favorite part of it was how they still trying to paint Russia as the one being isolated.
