What does that even mean?
Why Did Russia Give Away Crimea Sixty Years Ago?
In 1954 the Soviet Union transferred control of Crimea to Soviet Ukraine. Mark Kramer (Harvard) explains the reasons behind this surprising decision, one which has come back to haunt Ukraine today with tragic consequences.

Good question. I'd need to mull that over.
The discourse we chatted about was 'taking the capital city'. Japan surrendered well before that was likely to happen. Ukraine wont need to 'take Moscow' either.You stated incorrectly, which means you are the one making stuff up:
Bombing of Tokyo - Wikipedia

Ukraine are already attacking Moscow, if you hadn't noticed. They are unlikely to ever 'take Moscow' though. Won't need to. Putin and his dogs will chuck in the towel.

Most wars in history have been won without taking the enemies capital city. Many wars have been lost despite doing that (see all three/four UK attempts to conquer Afghanistan). It's nonsense.

F-16s dropping some bombs won't be particularly newsworthy.
F-16s getting shot down by Russia, on the other hand, will.

UN war in Korea ?? Phase of a contnuing war
Afghanistan ?? ( last one) Phase of a contnuing war
Dunkirk ? WW 2 ?? Phase of a contnuing war
Kuwait ? First gulf war ? Phase of a contnuing war
You stated: war can be won (proven - Japan) without attacking the capital city.
Now you are saying ukraine will win by attacking moscow (on the internet every day, I must add). Basically, you have no clue. Not surprising you are backing the loser. When do you expect ukraine to "win"?
Semantic mistake. I should have written 'taken'. not 'attack' Apologies.
I'm saying a war can be won without taking (your words) the capital city. In Ukraines's case - Moscow. In the case of the US case - Tokyo.
Historically proven boyo.
