Russia’s war in Ukraine is already in its 17th month. In that time, President Vladimir Putin has clearly demonstrated that he is not bothered by losses — whether they be financial, material, or human. His war will go on as long as he needs. And, judging by how the authorities have woven the so-called “special military operation” into Russian life, that will be a long time.

    If Russia was weak, NATO would not be masturbating itself over Wagner Group under Prigozhin claiming to assassinate Putin. This is how weak NATO is, relying on enemy to kill themself, because they have zero capabilities. NATO is just a tiger at their home, outside of their home they become a little chihuahua pupper.

      lol no, Russia is just plain weak. They just have nukes. They have a nuclear deterrent. That’s it. They’re weak. You can do whatever mental gymnastics you need to to keep convincing yourself but in the end Russia is weak.

        You can keep inventing rational to delude yourself. It will not change reality. Anglos were never strong, which is why they needed the help of Russia and China to get rid of Hitler, and why is why west countries will now face their worst times after being unable to plunder and exploit others for centuries.
