The aricle itself points out that "Moscow's advances since then have been incremental and are unlikely to be rapid in the short-term but hold-ups in Western aid for Kyiv threaten to hand Vladimir Putin the initiative." It's pure rhetoric intended to pursuade legislators to vote for more aid.
The Russians spent themselves on this crazy meatgrinder assault in strategically irrelevant Avdiivka so that Putin can campaign for Czar based on the success of his two day conquest of a sovereign country.
But what will he do if he conquers Ukraine and must repress 40 milion people who hate him... especially as his 19th century economy collapses?
Meanwhile, Ukraine is making life miserable for Russians in Crimia.

much more land Russia will take, how much more money will be wasted, and whether NATO disintegrates.

I’m sure you’re proud. “De-Nazifying” the Ukraine was one of Putin’s reason for invading. Total lie

The days when you can repess millions are over.
Putin needs to know that the U.S. and NATO will stand with Ukraine as long as his aggression continues. He will sue for peace and likely get some land for the hundreds of thousands that he has slaughtered. Ukraine will get screwed but it will survive and maintain independence which is the win. Even freakin Macron sees this. Only the fucktard moron MAGAT’s don’t. That’s who Putie is counting on, Orange and these morons.

on dipshits like you to abandon them. Thank God areseholes like you from the left were ignored in the Cold War. We wouldn’t have Taiwan, Japan and S Korea in our corner.
Go fuck yerself you appeasing asshole
Population advantage in a 9 to 1 munition advantage Ukraine will lose badly time to cut a deal and stop this madness
You said they would be done in a week. The Russian Army has sucked against a second rate opponent. Just need to show them they can’t win outright. Your boy is counting on you idjits to get him his victory. Ukraine won’t give up.
Them into a cohesive mechanized brigade. They are now litter across the countryside.
Your side has absolutely sucked at this war. Give Ukraine what they need to reach Crimea and this will end.

Learn some history.
Read the room, dummy. Russia and its convict military are committing war crimes. Russia is destroying people’s lives, killing women and children. I’m sure they’ll be welcomed with open arms. Fucking imbecile.

between you and your enemy, just like WR/TE's push-pull technique to creat separation in football. But you got be very physical by doing that. Ukraine clearly lacks of power to make a push in their retreat. Russia sensed that and certainly won't give Ukraine a break. It's expected Russia
will stop after breaking Ukraine's 3rd defensive line. Because from the contour topographic map, that area is relatively higher, Russia will be happy to stop their advance after occupying that higher area. I am talking about same fight the Newsweek article talks about.
You murdering scum Chicom. You don’t know shit about tactics.
