Russia is still a backwards country with a third-world economy, and the only thing they can brag about is their nukes. They can’t even win a war which was supposed to be easy and end within a month or two. Only the nukes can save Putin and Russia now, since they can’t win even an easy war against a much smaller military. Putin needs to unleash at least 10 nukes against Ukraine to try to win the war, and with your help, he could be convinced to do so.

The IMF and the World Bank don’t agree with you, so link please.
The Ukes have done a fine job of slowing them down.
BTW, are you certain you understand the purpose of Russian's miliraty incursion?
Not sure exactly what Russia's goal for territorial occupation in Ukraine is, but think it is fair to point out that the Ukraine military has blown through 40+% of America's prewar reserves of 155mm Howitzer shells, 35% of US Stinger anti air missile reserves, 40% of Javelin and TOW anti tank missiles, about 15% of America's Patriot missile reserves, an unknown but substantial percentage of America's HIMARS reserves, a good amount and rapidly growing number of our long-range ATACMS missile reserves to keep the Russians at bay.
Additionally, the Ukraine has expended pretty much half or more of NATOS similar high tech weapons.
We have essentially expended ALL of the weapons stockpiles reserved for WWIII in the European theater. We are out of weapons to supply to Ukraine and all that the Ukrainians have been able to achieve is to fight the Russians to a losing standoff.
The West has blown it's wad in Ukraine to support a lost cause and the Russians are just getting started.

A German in 1945 Berlin would not have thought it mattered.
Okay. What the heck does that say about the US and NATO who have thrown everything they have at the Russkies for over 10 years and are losing?
I know what it says, and you should too if you have half a brain.
