Nobody wins in a conflict like this, which is why it’s so morally reprehensible that Russia attacked Ukraine. Russian nationalists, mind you.
It’s not that Russia will win “the war”. It already failed its major objectives, which look like they’ll never succeed, that is to occupy Kyiv and reinstall a puppet government loyal to Moscow. They can probably still get away with taking Donbas, I assume.
Ukrainian and Russian forces are not equal, nonetheless.
