    It’s different than the numbers in the west. Which source can be trusted as an objective truth to know how much each side is off?

      It’s pretty wild seeing Jeffrey Sachs called a Russian propagandist. Wikipedia credits him as the architect of “shock therapy” that undermined Russian economy.

      The numbers are anybody’s guess, and even they probably don’t know for sure.

        Russia does very little of this, and much less than Ukrainian denials of reality. Mostly the front lines that Russia claims are reality. Definitely no example of a highly contested town that Zelensky walked through.
