  1. The actual reason you are talking about it is that there isn't anything else Ukraine can claim as a success in their failed offensive.

  2.  @thegreatdane3627  Sure, sure, they are making progress. Germany made progress in the Spingoffensive of 1918, exhausted her army and got rolled back in the 100-days offensive by the Entente. Actually, this comparison doesn't make any sense. Germany had actually made significant progress and didn't end up stuck in front of the allied trenches, unlike Ukraine that has yet to breach the first line of defense, despite what the "expert" in the video was claiming (or have you seen a Ukrainian soldier waving his flag ontop of a dragon tooth?).

  3.  @thegreatdane3627  I would have thought that a bot like you would realise that the German Springoffensive of 1918 was carried out in WW1, you know, the war that ran from 1914 to 1918? Why do you think I used the word "Entente"? And of course you have seen these pictures. Anyway, let's pretend for the sake of argument that Verbove isn't part of the first line of defense, but behind it (and I will grant you this, no one actually ever definitively defines where what line is, which number it has and so for). So, for the sake of the argument: Ukraine wasted tens of thousands of men and suffered massive equipment losses, but has only breached the first line of defense after four months. That's in your book progress? They are attriting their army, and with it whatever leverage they might have had in negotiations, away for no strategic gain whatsoever. Calling that success just boggles the mind. Now, please tell me all about how it's actually Russia that is being attrited away, despite their air superiority and their superiority in artillery, not to mention that it's them who are on the defense.😒
