Nobody predicted an immediate collapse.

I can safely dismiss your opinions now.

The same talking points (propaganda) that falsely predicted a Russian economic collapse within moments of western sanctions when the war started years ago.

the Russian state is brought to its knees.

Imagine not being a simp to western hegemony and not wanting humans to suffer in any country.

Ukraine has lost over 40% of land it seized in Russia’s Kursk region, senior Kyiv military source says

Meanwhile Moscow occupies more than 20% of Ukrainian territory.

This proxy war is a very obvious failure.
