Pyrrhus (brought to the future by time machine): Hey it’s me Greek King and generally considered one of the best Ancient Generals of all time, do you guys still remember me?

Ukraine has made the reclamation of all pre-2014 territory their stated war aims, so I don’t see how you can call anything less than that a Ukrainian victory.

And considering how much it has already cost them, it’s literally impossible for them to have anything better than a Pyrrhic victory. If they could take a couple oblasts from Russia somehow, it would still have cost too much.

I don’t think they know what the word pyrrhic means (and I’m pretty sure they miss spelled it as well)
