How many of them have working weapons?

With that number, he should be able to just roll across Ukraine, but he is not.

Ukraine’s war of attrition of oil infrastructure and radar installations has being effective.

I think the long game is the break up of Russia. I suspect the folks in the east are very unhappy with this incursion that is bleeding them dry of men and other resources. I could see at least three new countries emerging from the remnants with other smaller entities declaring independence.

I am surprised Putin has lasted this long, but it shows the stronghold their system has on the people and those moving up the leadership chain.

This obsession with war will be the undoing of the EU. Agree.

Ukriane has affected less than 5% of Russian annual oil and energy production.

Germany was bankrupted by US provided energy costing 2.5x what Russaian energy costed, and now factories sit silent across the Rhur River Valley.
