Not hardly, destroying a nations ability to manufacture and find war effort is as old as time

Perhaps putin will get some new goodies from his master xi to help his front and AD
Perhaps a few tons of corrugated metal to up armor those T-55s and Chinese golf carts.

The big winner in all of this is going to be China, Russia is now a vassal state to China. As the west is interested in bleeding Russia, so is China

Putin loves to talk “history” and using that for justifying his actions, xi has a few “historical “ claims of his own that I am sure he is just waiting for the right moment to make his move, and it ain’t Taiwan

Lookie here. No diversity. It's no wonder the Ruskies are trying to keep Western degeneracy out of their country.

This is St. Petersburg, Russia. What do you notice?

All I see is a video of young men about to get press ganged and sent off to die in Putin’s war in Ukraine, and the young women who will weep for them. Kind of sad, actually.
