The aim was to keep European defense expenditure down 5% of GDP, pretty much thanks to Trump. So strategically, he's failed. Militarily, he's failed. He's not advancing. He's killing over 1,000 Russian soldiers per day, 34,000 in the month of December, for minuscule progress on territory. We're talking really less than 1 percentage point in the past 1,000 days. So he's losing this war. And on top of that, economically, they're doing extremely badly. (11:13–11:25)

CLAIM

Asserts that over 1,000 Russian soldiers are being killed daily, totaling 34,000 in December, with little territorial gain.
