Just a flesh wound.
I guess no one wanted to believe Vlad a few weeks ago when he said he hasn’t even started.
Since then ( amid the western laughter), he added the ethnic Russian provinces into the Russian Federation, secured the Russian/ China/ Indian / Brics/ ME alliance, fully drained the EU weapons fund, added 300,000 prior servicemen into the conflict, and proved he can bring Ukraine back into the dark ages.
Not bad. Pray he remains constrained.
