Peter Burgess COMMENTARY
The line of questioning in the video was something of a broken record getting the same answer over and over again.
This is not an 'easy' war. Putin's forces may not be well trained, but they have had a very long time to create strong defensive lines. Ukraine does not want massive slaughter if its troops which translates into careful but slow advance against the Russians.
The armchair generals and reporters are now annoying me ... not to mention the politicians who use war news for political gain.

“It's a strategy of weakness, because they believe that somehow having a cease fire right now ends the problem of Putin's aggression in Ukraine.”
If the US and Germany are discussing a peace deal with Ukraine and Russia, they’re naive, because ‘Putin has said all along” that he can out wait Western leaders’, says John Herbst, the former US Ambassador to Ukraine and Uzbekistan.
