Of course it's not the same Russia now. They are no longer a commie nation, or do you have sources on that too?
If any person in any country these days wants no part of any war anywhere in this world today, they should be patted on the back, instead of choosing to be cannon fodder in another proxy war.
I have “sources” that shall not be named. The stats on losses can be discovered in other internet sources and Putin is embattled now. The Russian Military is now proved to be inept, and not up to the mission. In anycase, what’s the point, Ukraine will take billions and billions to rebuild on the east side. Putin wins nothing by winning.
