Absolutely. All that Russian military kit may look mightily impressive in military parades, but a lot of it isn't very effective in modern combat, e.g. the predominant T-72 battle tank that is vulnerable to an ti tank missiles of which Ukraine has a large supply. The helicopters are perfect targets for Stin ger rock ets (the Russians hate them since the disastrous Afghanistan war in the 80s) and so on. So yes, Russia has the stronger military and would very likely win a conventional war on the open battle field. But war is never really like that in reality. Hence, the Russian advantage may not be as strong in reality as many believe

Well, besides Russian flaws, there are inherent imbalances today in weapon<>armour struggle.

Top attack munitions basically negate any armour.

MANPADS got so potent, even purpose made attack helos drop down like flies.

ATGMs like NLAW are single use, and disposable. You can give them to every light infantryman, and make crossing woods, and urban terrain a suicide for any armour.

Toy quadcopter drones made 60 years old artillery pieces superbly lethal again

Light strike drones launched from the field gives a country an undeniable air 2 ground force for pennies

Nobody seen all that even 2 years ago, but military planners who were proponents of all of that
 

Denmark has been a NATO member for 73 years plus still a NATO member and I don't understand the panic over joining European security. The Russian fear most be real out here folks.

Or maybe they have been refused to join them by the US as denmark is basically a satellite state for the Americans and the place they used to spy on other European leaders like Merkel
 
This Ukrainian crisis will provide us with the beautiful spectacle of seeing the beginning of a great damage to Germany's industry

As the architect of Ukraine's destruction, the witch Victoria Nuland, said: "fxxx EU"

I see you are aware.

There is a special place in hell for her and those like her.

Bellingcat corroborated this telegram message:

 
The condemnation of Putin has to wait in line... The Yemeni, Iraqi, Syrian, Palestinians, Kashmiri, Libyan, Yemeni are all ahead of the line of moral condemnation. If there was unbiased justice those would have been resolved. Ukrainian don't get to jump the line because of Skin Color.
They should not, but this topic is about Russia - Ukraine war.
