Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

You still don’t understand.

Yes the demand of oil still the same. The trick is how to make the Russians poor. The EU refuses to buy Russia’s crude and refined products. So Russia sells crude to India below market price, some 30-40 percent discount. India refines the crude to finished fuels then sells at market price to Europe. That’s ok. India makes big profit. The EU still gets the fuels. While the Russians get less money than in the past before sanction.

We know that's false because counties with big demand like Pakistan approached for 100,000 barrels of oil and answer was a very small discount if any.
So sure may be 10 or 20% discount but not a big one

Russia was rolling in money ever since the oil prices hit 50. Even early 2000with oil prices in 30s it was making hefty money.

Enough for Russia to keep fighting for years to come..

What most surprising is that Russia still have an airforce.

The amount of Russian war crimes in Ukraine is incredible.

Pretty much any american soldier would shoot any Taliban that said anything like this if they caught him in combat, and it would not be a warcrime or even investigated.

There is not much left in Russia’s arsenals. Even if Putin fields everything until underwear that won’t change the dynamic. Putin’s last joker is Air Force. that’s still intact.

Russia can probably win if they utilise the airforce in massive numbers and do huge bombing runs, the front would collapse. The question is would there be any planes left afterwards.

But it seems you just cant win a modern war without an airforce.

And there are people forcing Ukrainians to make peace or come to terms with the Russians.... The only peace there can be in Ukraine is when Russians leave Ukrainian lands or are pulverized one by one.

The reason why USA lost in Vietnam

Airpower wasn't openly available given Soviet help

But not to a degree we see here. Any military would have been in toruble

Correction; Ukraine stopped the Russian Airforce with their own Soviet AA, not western provided. Ukraine had the largest AA pool/stockpile in Europe before the war , by a massive margin
