and then ukraine launched two limited counteroffensives which was successful in kan in kharkiv and they were successful. and then over the winter, they tried to build their force with us. and european help to conduct a large counteroffensive in the spring that did not achieve its objectives. so you have, you're back at that stalemate. but i would tell you that the ukrainian people fought an extraordinary fight and are still fighting an extraordinary fight. their resources are not unlimited. and the russian military, i think they're a learning organization. you've shifted now into this. a lot of drone war and a lot of other capabilities of being introduced. but the russian military, i don't think they were, were overestimated per se. i think that they executed their operations as we thought they would and the ukrainians beat them on the battlefield. and i think a couple of things that did surprise me, one was the russian air force. so the russian air force did not perform the way i thought they were going to perform. and that's because again, the ukrainians, the ukrainian air defense was
