Russia has already lost over 520,000 of its soldiers, more than 23,000 tanks and armored vehicles, about 14,000 artillery systems, 359 aircraft, 326 helicopters and other equipment in the war against Ukraine. Isn’t the price too high for “help in restoring the sovereignty of Ukraine,” which no one asked for? Putin's Russia simply wants to conquer Ukraine and use its resources. And everything else is words of an absurd justification for the seizure of someone else's territory.
Moreover, having started the war, Putin counted on a quick victory, but now he can no longer stop it, since this would mean his death in the literal and figurative sense of the word. So he sacrifices several tens of thousands of Russian lives every month in order to delay his death. But it will come anyway, and very soon.
If Putin had not started this war NATO would have already had military bases in Ukraine with US ballistic missiles aiming for Russia. Therefore, I believe he made a right move.
US neocons and democrats in general are in a desperate situation because the US is running a huge budget deficit of 34 trillion dollars and it raises by 1 trillion dollars every 100 days.
Very soon social security payments in the US will no longer be distributed to US citizens. The day of reckoning is approaching rapidly.
One of the ways to postpone the inevitable collapse inside the US and collapse of the US dollar is by conquering Russia and forcing Russia to ship vast quantities of raw materials to the West at very cheap prices like it was done in the past 30 years. Putin publicly told to the West long time ago that he did not agree to this kind of unfair distribution of profits by supplying to the West raw materials at very low prices.
US necocons did not like that because this hurt their profits and they started pumping Ukraine with tanks and weapons.
