Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand

Yes, Russia Is Losing the War in UkraineAnd Putin seems to be the last person not to know it.Cathy YoungJun 03, 20261ShareUkrainian soldiers from the 30th Brigade fire with Bohdana artillery at Russian positions in the Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine, May 31, 2026. (Diego Herrera Carcedo/Anadolu via Getty Images)FROM LATE 2023 UNTIL LATE 2025, I got a jittery feeling every time I pushed back against the prevailing narrative of Ukraine’s inevitable defeat. That line was quite common in mainstream punditry, but most assiduously promoted by Donald Trump and his worshipers, who assured us that Ukraine doesn’t “have any cards” and in any case Russia always wins its wars.
