You are deluded. To quickly reply to you (at that point a long answer would be a waste of my time), sanctions didn’t meaningfully impact Russia revenue which raised with gaz and oil prices. China is actually importing things from Russia. Ukraine has no chance of retaking Crimea - which doesn’t want to be retaken anyway - and is currently losing territories, infrastructures and seeing a very real erosion of its available manpower not winning them. Negotiations have to be made by Ukraine obviously but allies have a lot of sway there. Ukraine couldn’t wage this war without the support of NATO countries and these countries are first and foremost serving their own interests as usual.

The statistics of the number of people under the poverty line come from the Russian government so theirs no delusion there. Ukraine will retake all of its territory in time. If Russia is winning so much why are they rolling out units that are compromised of volunteers that are nearly geriatric?. Why is Russia using weapons that where designed to take out America aircraft carriers against Ukrainian shopping malls? (kh-22). Why is Russia using tanks that where made in the 1960's (T-62). Ukraine already has weapons that far outstrip anything that Russia has deployed against them so far (HIMARS, m777's, CESARS, KRABS and Panzerhaubitze 2000) and they are getting more as time goes (NASAMS and M270's). Multiple Russian ammo depots explode nearly every day from HIMARS, and Russia has no effective counter to them, because of the way that Russian logistics work this will be devastating if it's kept up. Russia is and always has been a paper tiger, never forget they lost in Chechnya and they lost in Afghanistan.
