Ukraine isn't even close to "winning" anything. Currently things are stalled. But the overall trajectory is that they utterly destroyed Russia's initial attempt at immediate conquest (of at least Kyiv, Kharkhiv, Odesa). And have retaken about 50 percent of the territory that Russia initially occupied, and have imposed disproportionate losses on the aggressor in basically every category. Crimea and Donbas should be forfeited in a diplomatic matter to settle further tensions. Currently this idea has essentially zero support in Ukraine (outside perhaps those regions). Do you think the Ukrainians are not capable of evaluating both the cost of the fighting so far (and the cost of the alternative) -- and making a decision about these matters on their own? Why do you feel you need to decide for them?
