    Would Novorossiya be a phyrric victory?

    Russia achieving all of its stated territorial goals sounds like a standard victory.

    I guess if they get Novorossiya but the remainder of Ukraine becomes a NATO base then that’s a phyrric victory since it would still be a geostrategic loss compared to 2014.

    Which I guess is why NATO ghouls are now calling for a “cease fire” since a Korea-type division of Ukraine without a peace treaty would allow them to remilitarize the rump state and start fighting again in 10, 20, or 50 years.
