It seems obvious to me that Putin could end the war in Ukraine tomorrow if he wanted to, but he's purposely dragging it out to bleed the west of money, weapons, and eventually men. It's no wonder that President Trump called him "very savy" when he started the special military operation in Ukraine.
Do you think Russia is not losing money, weapons and men? Do you think is cost free?
Just before I came here I was reading reports that Russia just lost 2 ships in 2 days
A minesweeper called Kovrovets And small missile ship called Cyclone which was in launched with great fanfare last year.
Cyclone just happened and not confirmed yett
Good name, maybe try it.
Please elaborate.
Also do you think this war was cost free for Russia?
Putin has just shaken up his own military.
Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu was demoted.
Nikolai Patrushev was removed as Security Council Secretary. Shoigu put in his place.
Lieutenant-General Yuri Kuznetsov was arrested. Deputy Defense Minister Timur Ivanov
The new Russian Defense Minister has never served in the military.
And then there's Yevgeny Prigozhin.
He was a key element of Russia's defense system He was asssinated after he rebelled against others in the Russian Military, particularly Shoigu. Patrushev allegedly approved the assasination.
Me Personally? I don't think this would be happening if everything was hunky-dory.
Good comment. Russia has its own deep state, and the war against these criminals is also happening over there too
