Not that I’m in anyway suspicious of our media,…….I mean why would I be! Given recent years. Regardless of the supposed kicking Russia are getting. Slowed? Definitely. Stopped no. Russia are in trouble but they are still in a position to take Kiev and all the southern Black Sea territories. If it comes to a negotiation (which it surely has too) they will have a strong hand.

What this conflict has shown is that as a conventional war machine, Russia could not take on NATO. That’s good-ish.

Putin’s only leverage is nuclear, that’s still a lot of leverage.

I think Russia will take Kiev, and see what happens from there.
