  "textContent": "\nIn his latest Quick Take, **Ian Bremmer** says the war in Ukraine is entering a new phase, with Kyiv retaking territory from Russia through advanced drone warfare.\n\n* * *\n\nIan explains that despite being “wildly outnumbered,” Ukraine is gaining a technological edge, using coordinated waves of ground and aerial drones to hit Russian trenches, infrastructure, and troop movements. “The front lines are moving in the other direction,” he says, as Russia struggles to adapt.\n\nIan also warns that the shifting battlefield is raising broader geopolitical risks. As Russian casualties mount and strikes reach deeper into Moscow, **Vladimir** **Putin** is becoming “increasingly isolated,” surrounded by weaker advisers and facing growing criticism at home.\n\nThe result, Ian argues, is a more volatile conflict even as momentum on the ground begins to shift.",
