Biggest winner of this war are Iran and Turkey. Proved that Muslim might lives, with smart investments provided weapons that are lot cheaper yet lot harder to detect and do their missions without any drama.
Turkey was already powerful, now its more.
Iran is a surprise. Now I am fan of Iran...
I remember during Pandemic all rich people form India and Pakistan fled to thailand or other areas. This is norm when you have money apparently you run away.
if they have same reverse speed like t90 of Russia or same loader issue then its better to retire them. Sometimes hard decisions are the best. If you are to ans to Pakistan defense knows better then me than remember that Russians thought there weapons are great until Ukraine war came.
Either they will win big or loss all. That is true.
If the lose then they will lose big because, the image of mighty Russia feared by her enemies will totally be vanished. Hence, more issues by NATO directly either taking the advantage of handicapped Russia.
If anyone thinks these Russians, Ukrainians and neighbors are innocent then they are dumb. I do believe Russia will get upper hand or will be no more regional power as publicized, but they are surely ruthless. I remember one book of some colonel or maybe sergeant or platoon level commander...
Most probably they already have it and only would announce when its worst case. Since they are getting weapons from NATO, I think the supply from NATO could be due to the reason that NATO doesnt want ukraine to declare and use nukes.
Very drama style scenario but there is no harm speculating...
Yes I have seen posts people are energetic and applying for the cause of country whether right or wrong but they are supporting Russia. Just because minor chunk is fleeing doesn't mean whole country is against conscription.
We the asians, middle easterns, south americans and africans who have seen so much western propanganda shouldnt believe this media crap so easily there was time when taliban was best friend defeating ussr, saddam was villain and many other cases. Right now putin is hitler figure for the west...
I agree to your point but full mobilization simply means more area is to be covered as this feels like a full fledged war. To me russia did not use full punch I guess now they are going full scale and desperate.
