Where do Ukraine and Russia stand after four years of war?

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : After growing strongly on the back of massive military spending -- up to nine percent of GDP -- Russia's economy has slowed, posting just a one percent expansion last year.
47% : Around a fifth of Ukraine is contaminated by mines or unexploded ordnance, according to the UN's Mine Action Service.
46% : The total cost of reconstruction in Ukraine is estimated at around $588 billion over the next decade, the World Bank reported Monday. - Death - The United Nations has verified over 15,000 civilian deaths in Ukraine since 2022, although it says the actual number is likely considerably higher as it has no access to areas under Russian occupation, like the port city of Mariupol where thousands are reported to have died in a Russian siege.
40% : Forced to flee when Russia invaded, around 5.9 million Ukrainian refugees live outside the country and another 3.7 million are displaced internally, the UN Refugee Agency says.
