This is one of the basic reasons Russia cannot subdue Ukraine.

Snipers.

Pretty ironic considering what Vasily Zaitsev did to the Germans in WWII

Those country boys sure can shoot. Good luck with the occupation, Vlad, if and when you ever manage to conquer. Flies think they conquer the fly paper, ‘til they realize they’re stuck.

“Russia has plenty of snipers too.”

How many of them are 18-year-old conscripts in his tank column, though.

Not sure I’d be advertising it though....isn’t the 1st rule of being a sniper being stealthy?

Whats with this “We can’t wait to tell things left unsaid” mentality! There was a time when idiots could be shot for running their mouths.

How does one do that without getting exposed? Constant movement after 1 shot? Shoot from a safe distance? How far away is safe?

Russia warns pro-Ukraine foreign fighters won’t get POW status, will be criminals

He’d better hope he’s not captured.

“And Ukraine cannot subdue Russia.”

They do not have to subdue Russia.

They only need to survive Russia.

Yea! He goes off to fight for the Democrat money laundering machine and the globalists. What a hero.

Ukraine doesn’t need to subdue Russia, just repel its soldiers. That can and has been done before. Chief Red Cloud did it to the US Cavalry in the black hills way back when. The Maccabees did it to the Greeks. The Irgun did it to the British. Gandhi did it to the British. The colonials did it to the British. When you’re British, everyone drives you from their land.
