Could Russia still fight NATO? The war in Ukraine has proved catastrophic for the Russian military thus far. In almost seven months of war, the Russian forces have suffered one humiliating defeat after another, losing tens of thousands of troops in the process and thousands of pieces of equipment.
As a result, the capabilities of the Russian military have been seriously degraded, and Moscow’s ability to fight the U.S. and NATO has been dramatically degraded.

NATO sucks.
Bush/Cheney, Obama/Biden rejoice!
They probably couldn’t before the Ukraine war, they have just revealed through this war how much of an illusion their military capabilities were.
You’re free to go live outside their protection then, if you think they suck...
Ya think?
The Russians? Not so much.
Russia may lose the ground war.
Will they lose the economic war?
Will they lose a nuclear war?
They already fighting NATO in Ukraine.
Still don’t give a rat’s behind, who wins or not over there.
But....

And stop with all the Ukraine spam. You’re polluting the board with Biden and neocon cheers.
Greetings Laz!
I really appreciate your tagline.
The article seems to me like propaganda. I don’t choose sides I just want to know if there is reason to take the article at face value. I suppose I can accept the specific losses as real numbers, but I do not see why they are “crippling” or “catastrophic”.
Any additional info would be appreciated, whyilovetexas, thanks!
But Russia got their gas to keep them warm this winter and EU don’t.
Conventional war?
Nope.
Unconventional?
I dont think we want to find out.
Russia can’t fight sleep...
Does this mean that the EU may face Chinese troops? After all, China is out for world conquest. And I don’t think that Russia is finished with the Ukes, yet. It’s too big a country to give up that easily.
“Russia may lose the ground war.”
If they can’t beat Ukraine they would get nowhere with even a minor NATO power like Poland.
“Will they lose the economic war?”
Yes, Russia’s economy is smaller than Australia’s. They do not have the productive capacity to compete.
“Will they lose a nuclear war?”
Yes, they have lots of nukes but the subs, planes, and rockets are all 40 years old and ill-maintained. That failure rates would give America a crushing advantages in a nuclear exchange.
“Does this mean that the EU may face Chinese troops?”
The nation that has to worry about that is Russia. Siberia is almost empty and rich in natural resources with 1.5 billion Chinese just across the border.
China, despite Xi and Putin’s seeming friendship, has never given up its claims to that region.
Great, Russia is no longer a threat to the west. Well, I guess we don’t need NATO anymore, pack it up and bring it all home fellas.
