This war is Vladimir Putin’s fatal mistake. Not because of economic sanctions and not because of the huge losses of troops and tanks but because Mr. Putin’s soldiers are from some of the poorest and most rural regions of Russia. Before this war, these men were encouraged to believe that Ukrainians lived in poverty and were culturally, economically and politically inferior.

Now the invaders have seen the reality: The Ukrainians live better than they do.

I remember early in the war when articles like this were being written, when the whole "The Russian army is going to revolt, desert, etc etc etc". Just checking in, did that actually happen? How is that going for Ukraine right now?
