The UK Guardian claims Ukraine has "won the battle of Kharkiv" driving back
Russian attempts to encircle and take the city... only Russian forces were not
trying to take Kharkov. The primary objective, according to even the Pentagon,
is the Donbas region, all other objectives are secondary.

Russian forces around Kharkov are engaged in a fixing operation. As long as
Ukrainian troops are forced to remain around Kharkov instead of reinforcing
Ukrainian troops in Donbas, Russia's fixing operation is a success.

The fact that the Western media has to embellish minor and superficial gains on
the battlefield as a major "victory" illustrates just how little success Ukraine
is actually having.
