No mass mobilization, which was maybe unsurprising given the significant political and economic costs it could have had, but also no sense of victory. no sense of progress. i think that s what i found most surprising is he didn t talk about mariupol or kherson or try to spin this as, you know, progress for russia in the east and the south. and then no nuclear saber rattling, and finally, there was no, as we heard matthew chance say, though, no sense of when this war would end. i didn t take from this speech someone who was ready to back down. in that sense we re looking at a situation that s going to grind on for a long time. what was the take away for you? this was a defensive speech, vladimir putin trying to justify again and again why he illegally invaded ukraine, and if anything, this is a victory day for ukraine. this is a strategic failure for russia right now. it s clear that russia is suffering economically at home.
