    Russia isn’t strong enough to take on Nato military at this point. Ukraine has been kicking their teeth in for years now. I know Russia has some crazy firepower still but they are obviously struggling with manpower and old tech.

      This is a war of attrition. It is a meatgrinder on purpose. Putler wants to turn Ukraine into another Belarus. By grinding their will into submittion.

      What this war in Ukraine has proven is that modern equipment is not the end all be all. Ukrainians are shooting down Shahed drones with truck mounted double machineguns. Once thought to be outdated.

      And today they cant fight with NATO. This is why nazis at the kreml are throwing a hissy fit each time France suggests forces in Ukraine.
