There is no more leopards left in Ukraine all have been wiped
no wonder US didn’t send Abram they pressured Germans to send 2A6 which is better than Abram and US don’t lose face
Russia just won the war, according to you. No need to repost these same pictures then.
We know the ukrainians drove some Leopards into a minefield, some artillery shells were fired, two russians went up and took some selfies - and the pro russian camp has been jumping up and down ever since. Doesnt exactly show confidence in russian defence.

Lancet has been devastating western equipment
$5,000 drone taking out $5 million tanks and $50 million radars
This why Russia has no recession with sanctions and West has recession without sanctions
Russia is clever

The reality is that American equipment offers the most value for the money spent. If other things like sanctions, arm-twisting etc. were not in consideration and our general staff across the three services was given an option to pick American over Russian, they'd opt for American 90% of the times because it offers ruggedness with highly tested/validated technology which provides "qualitative" edge.
This is possible because in the US, the private sector spends the most money on R&D related to their weapon systems compared to the rest of the world put together. That, more than anything else, is what gives the American systems an edge.
This does not mean that these systems are invincible, far from it, but due to their reliability, engineering quality etc. they give the users a higher degree of confidence over most other systems. European systems are good too but they are usually even more expensive than American.
Drones are definitely something to worry about, but Ukraine has released 10 times as many hits using armed hobby drones. Russias advantage is the Orlan 10 finding something to target with the Lancet. Ukraine needs something like that in order to take full advantage of its long range precision artillery.
Regarding Russias economy: you have no idea. All you know is what Putin wants you to believe. Russia stopped publishing data long ago. But take a look at the ruble exchange rate against any currency like the dollar, Euro or yuan for the last ten years and ask yourself what that tells you about Russias economic strenght.

so you think Zelensky will succeed where Napolean and Hitler failed?
Western nations said the economy will be in free fall and ruble will be in decline and mass protests due to inflation
yet Russians are stronger than ever
rest of the World on one side and Russia on the other, it is embarrassing for everyone involved how Russia has managed to get the jump on the West
So do you think Ukraine invaded Russia? Just asking since you compare Zelensky with Napoleon and Hitler..
I dont remind repeating myself: you have no idea how the Russian economy is doing. All you know is what Putin wants you to believe. And the only reason you keep repeating this russian propaganda is because you dislike the West.
All that matters is that Russia has shown its true colours and there is no excuse to appease this authoritarian shithole anymore.

taking back whats yours is not invasion
Crimea belongs to Russia and historically speaking so does the Eastern part of Ukraine they all speak Russian there no one there wants to be part of the Ukraine
Russia does not care if Finland joins the NATO but always had objections to Ukraine so either listen to other side or pay the price
if not whoever wins the war makes the final decision, some people only understand language of violence like Israel
Maybe Russia belongs to Ukraine.. You are just quoting a narrative fabricated to justify annexation. Historically speaking no such thing as Russia even exist, so whats the point using this false narrative anyway.
I know you pretend to believe this russian propaganda because you dont like the allies of Ukraine. So be it. But you are not addressing one of your anti western online bodies. Russian propaganda makes me laugh.

no nation called Israel has ever existed the Romans called it Philistines
US and its allies support Israel in breech of dozens of UN resolutions so your argument us null
no one cares what the West thinks they are just all in a panic because Russia is kicking their behind and China is expanding

Actually Russia and the rest of the world agreed and considered Ukraine as a totally sovereign nation. It does not equate to "taking back what's yours". That is not such the case for PRC and ROC where very few nations (not even the USA) recognize Taiwan island as a sovereign nation. So the "taking back what's yours" would be a more fitting although heavily contentious argument when it comes to PRC and ROC over Taiwan island since that is actually a civil war issue that was never resolved during China's civil war era.
However that argument is simply ridiculous for invading Ukraine. Russia's reasons are manifold but cannot be accepted as "taking back what used to belong to Russia" since even Russia itself completely recognized and considered Ukraine a separate and independent nation. If we can argue a case for Taiwan island breaking away from the nation of "China" whether that "China" is PRC or ROC due only to political differences, then it cannot be accepted by any serious person that Russia is allowed to invade a sovereign nation in this way.
I should say I have no position on this war though. Just want to point out the ridiculousness of saying this is Russia taking back what is theirs. Sure at some point and in some ways of interpreting the history of this, maybe. No official can utter those words, not even Russian ones. Basically shitting on the very fundamental basics of law that every principled human regardless of where on some spectrum they are on can be honest to self. If allowed to, then every other aspect fall into utter meaninglessness.

You have been beating this strawman for more than year now - Russia is beating NATO. It makes you look like a fool completely out of touch with reality. But I know you you are just pretending, because you dont like the allies of Ukraine.
