Can Ukraine win war against Russia?

During an interview with BBC on Friday night, Blinken said that Ukraine can absolutely win the war against Russia. He also praised the extraordinary resilience of the Ukrainian people.
When asked if he was convinced that Ukraine would win the war, Blinken said: “Over time, absolutely. I can’t tell you how long this will go on. I can’t tell you how long it will take. But the idea that Russia can subjugate to its will 45 million people who are ardently fighting for their future and their freedom, that does not involve Russia having its thumb on Ukraine, that tells you a lot.”
