So Russia already lost the war

What happened, did the sanctions crush them? Gas station shut down?

imagine saying russia will crush ukraine in few months.

One year later:

Sanctions didn't ruin Russia and have massively backfired

Russia has been driven into China's camp and even Iran is profiting

Energy crisis has hit EU hard (and other parts of the world especially poor countries) and Nord Stream is history

Inflation has hit EU hard (and other parts of the world especially poor countries)

Ukraine is getting wrecked and no one even dares to report the number of Ukrainian casualties

Russia still occupies a large chunk of Ukraine despite all efforts to prop up / train / equip the Ukrainian army


Where's the OP to explain what went wrong?

I can explain it to you but i can't understand it for you:


* the NATO invasion of Finland is not formal ATM

Finland to formally join Nato ‘within days’, Jens Stoltenberg says

Finland will formally be welcomed into Nato "Within days" after Turkey's ratification of the Baltic country's accession to the western defence alliance, the Nato secretary general has announced.
Stoltenberg will then formally invite Finland to join Nato.
The move by Finland and Sweden to join Nato - condemned by Moscow as driven by Russophobic hysteria - is a severe blow to the Kremlin, which had justified its war against Ukraine by citing Nato expansion on its borderswhich ironically has driven more countries to join Nato.

=> Interesting to note that Putin's genius just managed to double its border lengh with NATO during his 4 days special operation.

* Putin admits sanctions may hurt Russia’s economy

* European Natural Gas prices at Lowest Level since Summer 2021

* Russia economy numbers totally fine when it's about to get indicators from the Kremlin:

* Russia not only bad on battle field but also in propaganda:

Finland? What are you talking about, this is about Russia - Ukraine and Finland =/= Ukraine, no Crimea, no Sevastopol

Gas prices in EU will stay higher than what it was before the war because a large part is now delivered as LNG which is way more expensive than gas delivered by pipeline and the pipelines are kaput, it's over pierre

Russia did NOT crumble in months, the war has dragged on and there's no end in sight. A large part of Ukraine is still occupied by Russia.

Why don't you just admit it's a disaster, I'm just trying to make this easier for you

Cool ...

Cool? That's called reality.

Why do you think Zelensky keeps asking for more weapons and more ammo and now fighter jets?

Because the Ukrainian army isn't stretched to the limit? Let us know

Dunno, would have to ask Iran or North Korea

Did you notice I mentioned China? No?

Remember that one year ago people warned that Russia could be driven into China's camp?

Reminds me their Peace Plan
