## Resource

Putin keeps trying to sell Russia a story of inevitable victory, but the evidence points in the opposite direction. Russia is dealing with fuel shortages, rising public anxiety, a nervous dictator expanding his own security, Belarus looking to China for cover, Poland-Ukraine tensions that benefit Moscow, Britain rebuilding its military around Ukraine’s drone-war lessons, and Russian propaganda being laundered into Western media.
