Russia did one heck of a job over the past two years. They took on 1.2m AFU Soldiers backed by NATO with 160k combat troops. They fell back when the diplomacy failed due to NATO pressure. They held the line and withstood Ukraine’s 5 month 2023 offensive. Today Russia has 1m military up from 380k in 2022. Ukraine now has ZERO MILITARY RESERVES. Ukraine has resorted to pulling men from the line of contact in the South and East to hold the North. Russia did not open this Northern front until the idiots in Kiev decided to attack Belgorod and threaten Russian towns.

There are over 1000 BMPs and 400 tanks not yet committed in the Northern sector. Russia has 400k men in reserve, and 300k completing training at the end of June.

Ukraine’s been living off 19 years of NATO defensive positions which have all been captured now. The stalemate is over. Ukraine has only 600k combat soldiers, no air defense, and Russia has killed over 675k Ukrainian soldiers and wounded over a million. Russia has lost 70,000 including 20,000 Wagner.

When people say it’s over, they are simply stating the obvious as it was obvious in late 1943 for WWII Germany.

Russia took 275 sq miles in 72 hours. This summer they will force what’s left of the AFU east of the Dniper River, but northwest surrendering Odessa.

He is in for over $200billion, has watched the ruble circle the toilet for the last two years and he is currently paying 16% for money.

Actual real things.

oops meant to add-

Pres Trump will flodd the world with oil,

Russia’s $91billion/yr in added climate oil revs will be gone-

and he will have taken exactly what he was after all along-like magic.

the ruble will not recover as it never recovered from the 2014 invasion.

The end is impoverishment of the Russian people for largely no gain.

LOL, complete russian idiot propaganda. If those numbers were ANYTHING close to reality the war would have been over in 6 months, and not be in its 810 day.
