PUTIN thought he would take Ukraine in three days.
Now, 500 days since his invasion, he is in disarray militarily, politically and economically.
Maybe the dictator was duped into over-confidence by his lying generals.
Maybe his own assessment was simply deranged, like his view of history which deems Ukraine illegitimate.
But President Zelensky’s tenacious nation has held off the supposedly mighty Russian forces, killed tens of thousands, obliterated vast quantities of hardware and pushed them into retreat.
