Bruh su 27 is a Interceptır/fighter not a bomber It doesn't have precise munitions or pods how did it destroyed a buk russian bullshit as usual Im suprised If they shotdown anything with those garbages caleld sukhoi lol
If losses are as high as stated by the Ukrainians, or even close to being that high, the amount of territory they have taken is negligible. Urban warfare is next, and if they decide to level every Ukrainian city like Grozny, not only will that take quite a long time but also a ton of supplies. I believe if the Russians do start an indiscriminate, large-scale artillery campaign of urban environments, which will only fuel a bigger insurgency that could very well disrupt backline logistics.
The further into Ukraine they go, the longer their supply lines.
Keep in mind the U.S lost 196 men in the 2003 invasion of Iraq, which lasted just under a month.
Is this supposed to be a joke or what ?Reinforcements go to the Russian army from Rostov
It was also launched on the calculation that Ukraine would surrender quickly without much of a fight. Were Sweden and Finland included in that calculation too? With this many weapons, I wouldn't be surprised if resistance remains for at least a few years. However at this point it is clear the Russian Government regards pulling out as a worse option than taking the losses and committing. The Russian economy is already destroyed, the markets have been closed for the past week and banks are preventing Russians from taking out cash. There's a massive drop in confidence in the reliability of the Russian market.The US is miles away and above other armies lol, there is no power on Earth that is even close to the US military, they are decades ahead.
You are comparing casualties incorrectly, Putin obviously does not consider these casualties as of primary importance, if his administration remains and he takes half of Ukraine up to the Dnieper river and his economy somwhow survives, this is a bigger win than loss, especially considering the geopolitcal stage change. Secondly, the west is winning on social media, we don't know the Ukrainian losses yet.
Remember, this was launched on the calculation that NATO expanding eastwards was a bigger loss than what he's doing currently.
Another miscalculation for Russia is that the Ukrainians now have the ability to reclaim Crimea either military or part of any ceasefire agreement. Had the Russians sat on their arms and not waged war, most probably Crimea would have been under Russian control forever.It was also launched on the calculation that Ukraine would surrender quickly without much of a fight.

If Putin stays, Russia will have to resort to China to sell their gas, at way lower price than Europe pays nowadays. It also takes new infrastructure (new pipelines take years to build). The Post-Cold War Era is over, imo, and the world order might change significantly over the next few years.

I believe the Annexation of Crimea and the proxy invasion of the Donbass was actually a pretty strategic failure of Moscow since beforehand there was a lot of competition between Pro-Russian and Pro-Western political parties and factions, but after the annexation not only did it take away a substantial part of the Pro-Russian voter base, it also further highlighted the stance of Pro-Western Parties.Another miscalculation for Russia is that the Ukrainians now have the ability to reclaim Crimea either military or part of any ceasefire agreement.

Well in Iraqi USA had a lot of local help and I remember that in London all Iraqis had street parties. No street parties here. Oh I almost forgot another Happy party was Hathemi who 2006 was bragging about Iranian help to USA in Iraq Afghanistan. No parties in Ukraine, they don't give up like others.I don't think you can compare it to the US invasion against Iraq. Iraqis were completely alone against the most powerful militaries of the World. However Ukraine gets massive supplies from the world wether food & rations or high end military equipment. The US is likely giving them alot of Intel as well. Biden alone wants to give Ukraine $10 Billion in aid
Where are the people who were defending him?Ethem Sancak was crying about Bayraktar drones on a Russian channel
This prick could not even get a successful product out.

Speaking of neo Nazis, Dmitiri Utkin, one of the Wagner leaders...
I'm starting to wonder if he really believes what he's saying.
Maybe his perception of reality is somehow skewed a bit...
never understand why Slavs would follow Nazi ideology
