    The counteroffensive didn’t fail. Ukraine made significant gains and Russia’s military capacity crumbled at this point.

    This article doesn’t pass the smell test - it’s Kremlin propaganda. Is China behind all of this?

      The well-known Kremlin outlet the New York Times. Nothing but Putin talking points from them.

      Failure or not depends on the goals. And by that it probably failed as they were aiming for retaking Crimea or at least split it in half. Also a lot of ground taken during counteroffensive is now lost again due to Russian offensive. Sadly so.
