History can repeat itself: in 1939, Stalin attacked Finland, expecting it to collapse in a few days.

 

Instead, it fought back and the Russian army received a "nosebleed". It was almost a year before the so-called Winter War ended, in which Finland lost territory but remained an independent country.

 

There is at least a possibility that the war in Ukraine will end in a similar way.

 

We are only at the beginning of things, and just because Ukraine has held out so far, that doesn't mean it will be able to counter the full power of Russia for long.

 

But the first round has certainly gone well for the Ukrainians, and the response from the West has been much stronger than most people expected. Chief among them, Vladimir Putin.
