You ever serve in the military? Because nothing you said is backed up from a military standpoint with what Russia has actually done in Ukraine. No successful military plans to leave long trails of its own destroyed equipment and dead soldiers as part of some 5D chess strategy. No successful military fights for months to capture a single city, waiting to start an “offensive”. Remember when the great gameplay was to shut down Ukrainian infrastructure. Especially its power grid. And force them to capitulate during a long and dark winter? How’d that work out? You’re going to learn a very interesting lesson in the coming months about sources you thought were accurate but have been lying to you all along.

Ukraine has no economy. They have no path to win. Period.
