Putin could keep throwing Russian troops into Ukraine and eventually overwhelm the country with military force, but the suspicion is growing that the Russians would not be able to control Ukraine and would be facing a guerilla war that could last for years.
The Russian dictator thought that he could easily take over Ukraine, but he was wrong, and no matter how the war eventually ends, the Ukrainians were able to hold off nearly 200,000 troops, which means that Vladimir Putin has already lost.
