If the war was going poorly for Ukraine, then it would be over and Russia would have won. If the war was going so-so for Ukraine, half the country would be under Russian control. IMO as long as Ukraine doesn't lost any substantive amount of territory over the summer and stalemates the Donbas/etc, they are winning the war and Russia will falter in the winter. IMO strategically Ukraine is winning the war, they are getting better weapons, gaining experience, getting supplies, Putin is weakening, the World will adapt to the economic disruption, and Russian troop morale will continue to falter. The West obviously loves Ukraine draining Putin of all his might. The risk of nuclear war is still ominous.
