Putin own spokesman said russia suffered significant loss. Russian made emotional decision. That's what Americans wanted. Nato is preparing for years of proxy war and bleed russia dry. Then nato will only focus on china.

Now that Mr. Putin's spokesreptile has admitted large losses, perhaps his trolls won't keep insisting all is going according to plan.

No doubt a bit of exaggerations by Ukraine to boost the morale of their forces, but whichever way you look at it, this is not going well for Russia. They can no long pretend to be any sort of match for NATO, when one month in, all that have managed to take in Ukraine is one city, and in the process have lost 4 generals, 10,000 plus soldiers and a large chunk of their equipment. Russia is a country with a large army, but is certainly not a super power. Once it finally accepts this it might start behaving like a civilized country, rather than destroying itself by trying to empire build
AFAIK none of all these glorifying stories by either sides have been corroborated and so the best for those who are watching and listening is to wait for the final outcome. The final goal.

Expectation of the performance of these make believe invincibility of the US and NATO army may falls short of expectation unless they are engaged in one.
They may be wiped off quickly as well.

But apart from the opinions of hardliners e.g. NATO SG Jen Stoltenberg, Liz Truss, etc and former Soviet states no European nations seems to be enthusiastic of a war with Russia.

But things will fizzled out soon when the status of the ongoing battles in Eastern breakaway Republics are finally known. Then everyone will have to face the reality and deal with the cost of someone else war? Life still goes on but the cold winter is approaching and new COVID variants may killed them.

Right now, all I am reading is Ukraine desperately requesting for armour vehlcles, tanks, etc from the West. And everyone is running short.

Didn't the tweets claimed how successful the UKR and AZOV are doing against Russian, Chechen and the militia?
Didn't they blow up almost all of Russian Armour Division?

Or are they just make believe as pointed out by independent observers and witnesses.

Russia is closer to default than ever. The bonds are in freefall while the yield exploding. Putin is the hero to Russia economy. He finished it in less than 2 months.

It is still far short of those published by the US and the West bases on uncorroborated sources.

What trolling?
The markets expect Russia bankruptcy that is why Russia bonds are minus 80 percent the value.
That means the ruble will decrease minus 80 percent in value. That is the reality.

Trolls are least to be worried about.

Bigger pic is how Americans are preparing for next show down and its ability to unite the nato...expand it beyond Europe and focus on its next target. Did u notice nato invited japan and south korean fm as well on the last summit for the first time? What does that tell you. Soon you will see Australia new Zealand get invites on nato summit. Hint its not the russian Americans are worried about. After seeing how pathetic russian army is no one cares specifically not the usa.

The US has simply ran out of breath, idea and sanctions.

The present team in the Administration are made up of mostly incompetent and conceited individuals.

And Biden is constantly in a daze and not knowing where he is or what he is doing.

So who is running his administration?

The sanctions are simply not working today and Biden do not understand why?
It shpuld work but it didn't.

The US can't even convinced ASEAN nations to vote against Russia.

Now even US ally Singapore has abstained.

The world today is not the same as the one before 2000 where the US can snap its finger like a regular Mafia Godfather.

Even India has a change of heart.

If you talk c@ck in front of us without the understanding you are simply trolling.
What Market???
Khmer Krom run fish market???
So what is the exchange of the ruble now?
You are dense. Markets means international bond markets what else?

Investors can buy Russia dollar bonds at their brokers those papers are traded in London, New York, Singapore, HK and I don’t know elsewhere.

You support the war you can buy. do it.

If the paper recovers you make 800 percent profit. Minimum.

Nato it self is a giant. You add japan Australia south korea etc that's massive military might. As time passes wont be surprised more asia pacific countries join. But we will see. Too early to tell.

Point is Americans are smart enough to bog down and bleed russia with proxy war for long time..unite nato and focus on its next target with its asia pacific partners.

Russian decision to invade Ukraine was not an emotional one. It was a prepared and calculated move. It was very rational if you believe that Ukrainians are not interested to fight, Europeans will not care and Russian army is fully modernised and super strong.

Russian problem was that all of Putin's underlying assumptions behind this decision have been proven to be incorrect :laugh:

“EU membership - matter of weeks not years”
It was always about what the candidate nation can do for the EU then any arbitrary roadmap. In this case, Ukraine maybe being setup like a “West Germany” of the Russophone world, and Russia becoming the “East Germany”. Ukraine maybe given reparations from out of Russia foreign reserves to rebuild, and its even possible the EU may encourage the best and brightest of Russia’s skilled workforce to emigrate to Ukraine to speed up the rebuilding while undermining Russian economic prospects. It might take a generation at most, but this war has given Europe the chance to give Russia the Coup de grace. I’d expect another mass migration out of Russia over the next few years, similar to what happened in the 90s.

Good. It will default soon. This war just started. They will default on dollar bonds as well in coming months.
.. this will happen when people don't need the rubble. But some European countries have agreed to buy Russian gas in rubble. These people may use the payments from Russia to buy gas in return? :undecided:
