Late Christmas Day or early Tuesday, Ukrainian air force bombers struck the Russian Black Sea Fleet landing ship 'Novocherkassk' in Feodosia in southeastern Crimea.
Of course they’re not, Ukraine has zero chance of actually beating the Russian military. I’m on Ukraine’s side on this, but elementary school math here. Unless a major country puts boots on the ground with them, which is unlikely because that’ll start WW3, Ukraine’s only buying time.
That was a “loss” huh? Aside from there being what 15 countries involved in that one against the Soviets? The Afghans/Mujahideen lost 5x the troops during that conflict than the Soviets did. The Soviets pulling out was them being tired of it clearly because they sure as shit weren’t losing. Ukraine has small contributions from random countries at this point, these two wars aren’t even remotely comparable.

Russia lost in Afghanistan (a much smaller and weaker country than Ukraine), they can lose here too.
