Hi GotoBrazil
It means that Ukraine has continued to exist. 'Simply' (only) means that is all it has done.
I hope this helps.

The sentence means that the simple fact that Ukraine has survived counts as a victory in the first phase.
What are you confused about?

Hi.
Survive means continue to live after a catastrophe. It's related to Italian or Latin root: sopra+vivere which means to live beyond or live over sth...
I hope it helped.
