Stubb: Ukraine kills or wounds 30–35,000 Russians per month. Kill ratio: 1 Ukrainian to 7–8 Russians.

In April, Ukraine took back more territory than Russia gained. 95% of damage comes from Ukrainian drones. The dead zone stretches 20–40km. Russia stopped advancing.

Stubb: Ukraine sent 400 soldiers to the Gulf to teach drone defense. Now Ukrainians co-produce drones with Europeans.
