    Them winning has yet to be seen, but using your homeland’s full military force to win a proxy war isn’t exactly a flex, either.

      Doesn’t sound like you have much respect or hope for Ukraine. It had one of the strongest militaries in the world and has been supported by the world’s most militarily advanced countries before and during the war. It’s not like, let’s say, a war against farmers armed with AKs living in rural communities in a desert, the mountains, or a jungle – you know, the kinds of enemies NATO/allies take 20 years to lose against.
