The Ukrainians are slowly accruing the advantage over Russia. A smaller force with better, Western-style training and organization using flexible combined arms tactics and modern weapons will almost inevitably beat even a larger force that has top-down planning, autocratic leadership, and obsolete weapons. That is how Ukraine will win, how Israel beat vastly larger Arab armies again and again, and how the US in 2003 used a much smaller army to take down Saddam Hussein.
Putin recently speculated in public that Russia and the Russian may not survive the present conflict. Nevertheless, with continuing US and NATO help, Ukraine will defeat Russia and prosper again. A defeated, post-Putin Russia though may well need US and Western help to survive.
Yeah, you go with that.
That’s the Bidementia, Soros, Nuland, WEF position.
