Deprived of light and heat, #Kyiv residents find strength in togetherness. Neighbours gather, share food prepared over open flames, and turn moments of hardship into ones that will stand out in their memory.

Four years, well over a million casualties, a war economy, and huge support from allies, yet Russia has nothing to show for it.
Russia still hasn’t managed to capture a single regional capital or special-status city in Ukraine.
What a pathetic failure!

The use of the word "needlessly" in the title is absolutely peak Westsplaining by The Economist. Even if you oppose the policies, to call them needless when Ru weaponizes and propagandizes Ru-speakers to justify its aggression against its neighbours is clueless privilege, not an analytical position.

OTD in 2002 Russian foreign minister Lavrov said it was Ukraine's decision to join NATO if it wanted.
Which is *very* strange thing to say if you got a promise from NATO that Ukraine wasn't going to be allowed to even apply. Or maybe it's bullshit.

During WWI, then minister-of-munitions David Lloyd George looked at the BEF's estimates for machine guns (4 per battalion) and quipped, "square it, multiply that result by 2, and when you are in sight of that, double it again for good luck."
Which turned out to be the real final number.
