In the end Russia is weakened. They just didn’t think this one through.
Maybe Russia should now be concerned about their Southern and Eastern border now. Will the Five Stars of china shine on the Russian Bear and find weakness? China has long wanted to destroy the US and become number one. They might not have a better chance to get rid of both the US and Russia than now, especially with Russia drawing troops from the Chinese border to fight in Ukraine.
Kinda like the Democrats didn’t think through “electing” Brandon with the following disaster in Afghanistan. That definitely put American in a weak position. Just look at the Saudis cutting deals with the ChiComs and not even taking Brandon’s calls.
