>Ukraine is winning True. Ukraine is currently pushing russians on all fronts, they liberated more area in 2 days than what russia occupied in 2 months. >Russians commit war crimes True. Bucha, Irpin, and now Izyum. Russians have committed tens of thousands of war crimes in this war. We still don't know the death toll of civilians in occupied territories, filtration camps and "reeducation centers". Russia also has a long history of not just overlooking, but promoting war crimes, evidenced by Putin awarding medals to the company which perpetrated the Bucha massacre. >Sanctions are working True. The first half year of 2022 the euro area GDP grew by 4% while russia's economy contracted by 4%. Russia is now also in shortage of critical materials, which could decrease production by 80-100% in some sectors. >War was unprovoked True. Zelensky did everything to appease Putin and reach a peaceful solution before the war. Indeed, if he made any mistake, it was that he didn't prepare for this war enough, not that he "provoked" russia. >Russians have heavier losses True. Ukraine lost around 9000 soldiers, while according to payments made to dead russian soldiers' families, russia lost more than 50 thousand soldiers. Putin also increased the army manpower by 138k, a telltale sign that they are missing men. Follow the facts and stay comfy.
