Sure Nazis are better fighters than the drug addict pedos aka Ana.

But for a peaceful and prosperous world both needs to be eliminated.

Maybe Vlad has underestimated the determination of the Ukrainians to remain an independent country

IMO

Russia focus militarily is
1) Enlarge newly recognised independent republics. ( Which is going well)
2) Intimidate Kiev into accepting neutrality ( which will most likely happen), now that US has also accepted that if Kiev agrees it has no problem with. ( probably miscalculated the extreme Russia will go? when they set the events in motion).
3) Demikitarize Ukraine ( which is almost 75% done in terms of major defense infrastructure and big equipment)

If you look closely Russian demands, its objectives are very clear.

Estimated 150k-200k forces at the border only 1/3 ( 60k) of which engaged in the initial assault, now after initial refusal by Kiev to talks increased to 50% today ( 90k). Step by step increasing pressure.


Mostly using old equipment ( probably meant for storage or scrapping in next 5 years) and probably majority are reserves not even frontline units supported by various groups with units of SF in between. ( Somewhat resemblance to how we did operations against terrorists and cleared the areas).

Russia has almost a million army with 2m in reserve.


Its upto zelenski how quick he wants to end it. US/UK are the ones who want a prolonged conflict.


( I am no expert just my opinion).
Very well said. Its very simple, none of this would be happening if the U.S and its cronies didn't try to bring Ukraine into NATO. They needed an ego boost after their humiliation in Afghanistan. The U.S is cauky and arrogant and is not coming to terms with the reality that the world has changed and their power is wanning. The Russian invasion suits them well...the U.S always need some world conflict to keep themselves relevant and keep the military industrial complex churning.

Anyway let's hope we come to a peaceful resolution soon. War is never good and loss of life is always tragic.
 
Russia is working to weaken Kyiv regime. If Kyiv regime remains functional for months, and urban warfare continues for months, along with more sanctions and isolation of Russia from global economic system, than it can spell trouble for Russia. Could this become a world war? No, because who will come to aid of Russia? It could back Russia into a corner and Russia would need to take drastic measures to drag others into it.

World war is not scary term. Just means many nations involved. Right now many nations taking political/economic measures against Russia. If others took such measures against opponents of Russia, it would be like a political/economic world war.
