For the average Ukrainian? Probably, for the wrong reasons, unless the defense contractors get to him first and cut him in on the action. But yeah if the scale of the fighting had been smaller or gone on for weeks instead of months or years things would obviously be better for the average person than what has happened. Maybe the national government administrating their region would change, maybe not, but there was never any humanitarian reason to displace million, kill tens of thousands, and pour enough gas on it to destroy the built environments supporting millions more. To me it’s more cruel to keep stringing it along and seeing more destruction.
