That would make sense if your only sources for information are English-speaking forums.

That's just a moronic statement, English is absolutely the best language for international news, you just have to avoid the American news.
But apart from that I speak 5 languages, and also get news from other sources than English speaking.

So what news is it exactly you think is better, as in more accurate?

Also the obvious increased confidence lately from Zelenskyy is very telling, completely disregarding the fact that Ukraine is basically taking out the Russian economy as we speak. And Russia hasn't made any battlefield progress for a year now, despite having made several attempts at great cost.
Also Russia has spend all their assets from the Soviet Union now, and the reserve funds Putin had to withstand economic sanctions has run out.

Russia's private economy is down 30% this year, when correcting for military spending, and Putin has no more tricks to hide it from the public. That's a very strong recipe for change of government.
On thew other side, the Ukrainian economy is actually stabilizing, and Ukraine is in a stronger position than ever against Russia.

Sure you do.

I look forward to you refusing to admit you were wrong when Ukraine loses.

LOL the response from somebody who has nothing to support his argument.
And yes I actually speak 5 languages, which is apparently so alien to you you have difficulty believing it.
But 3 languages is actually the norm where I live, not all countries are centered on speaking only 1 language.
It burns when you find out your bubble is smaller than mine doesn't it?

It's amusing watching you try so hard to prove yourself to strangers on the internet while being objectively wrong.

It's so fun watching you trying to get on the high horse and fall on your face, because there isn't even a horse to get on.
