I was looking for that correct wording of "History is Written by the Victors" often attributed to Churchill, when I found the quote's true(?) origin here... Who said “History is written by the victors”? The origins of the quote.
I agree, and you know what, the administration responsible for that mistake is no longer in power. My point is that Putin is a repeat offender and will likely continue to be a repeat offender until... when is his term up? 2024? And because his prior terms have been "reset" in 2021, he is now eligible to be president until 2036? Sounds legit.
