There’s no good way to sugarcoat setbacks.On the second anniversary of Vladimir Putin’s all-out war, Ukraine conceding that its summer counter-offensive stalled and that in pulling back from Avdiivka, its forces were badly outmanned and outgunned.

With U-S military aid seemingly stuck until November’s elections and beyond, nearly two dozen European leaders in Paris this Monday to try and cement a plan for picking up the slack. That’s begun… but at what pace? A solid majority of Europeans still support Kyiv but question its chances.

And what next for Russia? As early voting in occupied parts of Ukraine begins for next month’s re-election of Vladimir Putin, Moscow has the momentum… but does that mean victory for a country that’s gone all-in for a wartime economy?
