this war could end next year, all putin needs to do is add 300,000 troops to the kharkiv front, another 400,000 to the kherson front and take odessa, spend the winter carrying out combined attacks with drones, missiles and glide bombs, and attack them in the summer
bullshit, war is not won by 300.000 troops. 800.000 nk soldiers are less then 50 cruise missiles. if you want to win a war, you need much more then only win couple of battles and grab some ruins of towns. russia and china must crush u.s. mic and make them bankrupted and it will never happen as u.s. just staged coups in moldava, burma and indonesia, strengten their positions in gruzia and armenia and will use 300bln usd of frozen russian assets to do much more damage in the future
russia is so hopelessly stupid, passive and slow, that they are only observing what americans do and let it go unpunished. russians must not be surprised that conclusion in the west is that russia is stupid ruined country are not playing any significant role as a world superpower, so they treat them accordingly. as a garbage what russia probably is. at least with current stupid leadership putin & lavrov
you eurotard flathead nazis are more stupid then the average ukrainian.
guillable clown. did you learn your tripe from victoria nuland or ursula von der leyen?
tatters
i’m not eurotard, i’m just observing how putin killed 300.000 of his own people, how he ruined pro-russian donbas and let kiev regime unpunished instead bombing kiev to the ground and i observe how the west grabbed 300 bln usd of russian assets and blowed up nordstream and russia did nothing in retaliation. oh, and u.s. military companies make record profits because of the war in ukraine.
and just like that, by repeating the same isw talking points, you have proven that you are indeed an eurotard nazi flathead.
you guillable clowns are so easy to spot. maybe switch jobs and go back to flip burgers at mcdonalds.
unless putin takes odessa and cuts ukraine off black sea, this whole war becomes useless and very expensive/destructive exercise.
go play monopoly, jims, jimmy, jymmi.
