Russia did it with Napoleon and Hitler...
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:

[ColonelCassad] "Russia is a big country, she's used to fighting to the end, she's used to almost losing and then rebuilding everything. She did it to Napoleon, she did it to Hitler. It would be absurd to think that Russia lost the war or that its military is incompetent. Therefore, it is necessary to continue arming Ukraine "(c) Borrell

Well, they were also offended by Lavrov, who told them the same in plain text.

They themselves put themselves in the successors of the work of Napoleon and Hitler. Therefore, of course, we must make every effort not to disgrace our ancestors and do with Ukraine and NATO what they already did with Napoleon and Hitler.

#1 Then there was the Crimea War 1853-6 and the Russo-Japanese war 1905. You don't win them all.
