They've lost many times more than their pre-war active ifv core. Their black sea fleet and it's port infrastructure is being systematically dismantled by a country with no navy. The crazy part, though, is that they believe that they are winning - or are about to.
They must have one hell of an ask in mind for americas first dictator.
Elon Musk (who is definitely psychotic in many ways) has recently said that “There is no way Ukraine is going to win this war”.
I think he has still a point on many issues: Russia has a gigantic war machine and the Landscape of Ukraine is mainly flat. So there are no jungles and marshes like Vietnam nor a large area with many mountains like in South-Eastern Turkey (where Kurdish Guerillas are fighting since more than 40 years).
Yet, where was this interesting interview yesterday on DW in which the presenter was asking a top Ukrainian official questions like “Does Ukraine have a plan B if Western support continues to diminish?”. One of the things the interviewee said was: “Russia has already lost when it attempted to take Kiev and destroy Ukraine in February 2022”.
Also, I don’t think not stopping Russia in Ukraine now is a good idea because of this:

A great man has just disappeared, mainly because he refused to be intimidated no matter what.
There is a great documentary on the life of Alexei Navally on Amazon Prime (I didn’t see it yet but I’m going to)
