They are more fucked than that. Russia is never going to recover. Severely holed beneath the waterline. Fact check this...it's cheaper to get a mortgage in Kyiv than it is Moscow. Make Russia Small Again.
Yup. Russians are renowned for berating their leaders and when it comes to the root cause it's the fault of the west. It's a systematic brain washing indoctrination they have had over a century of. Even a regime change is not going to immediately change that. Will take decades and decades of change.
Easily, but that won't be the target. They want the munition production and storage sites. The oil depots and military stores. They won't be going after civilians. Or iconic world sites because if they do they will loose theirs as well.
Feels a little too late given the incoming Pro Russian US government. I hope Ukraine move quickly to hit everything they can - starting with the airfields.
This is Ukraine's last chance to do as much damage as possible to Russia before Trump comes in and pays his dues towards daddy Vlad. I hope they strike the Kremlin.
Trump may not want to be associated with the losing side. Remember Putin's besties are Iran and China. Trump is not so keen on them. Ukraine provides a convenient battering ram. Russia may have fallen from favour...not that Trump pays his bills. Kremlin is a hole, bombing it would improve it.
A lot of people seem to be supporting this, but what's the end game here? "Subjugation" of Russia won't happen without a major conflagration. I don't see how escalation of the conflict is going to help.
One day Russia will be supplying long range missiles to a country to fire at targets in the West and we'll look back at this to know where it all started.
Legally he can't under the security agreement the US signed so Ukraine gave up their nuclear arsenal. If Trump plays that game Ukraine can have their nuclear weapons back. #nukesforukraine
Ukraine will have to make one helluva retaliation, in the space of 2 months, if they're going to achieve any significant improvement on the peace deal Trump will try to impose on them.
Ignore it. Not his problem. He doesn't have troops on the ground. He's never going to get a Nobel prize for peace, plus he has mass deportations and tent cities to in the US to sort out....along with ensuring the US never has another presidential election.
It's political gamesmanship like this that leads to world wars. Democracy is a beautiful thing but coupled with short term absolutism we'll all suffer - big time.
Gives him two months to cripple the forward munitions bases before trump gets in. Prob a bit too littlw too late but it also give the uk free reign to permit them to use theirs. (shadow strike)
Not sure it's too little too late. Winter is coming and the general state of Russian military and tech is miserable. Even at this point they're resorting to throwing North Koreans into the meatgrinder. It's gonna be ugly, but it won't end well for Putin.
Putin is escalating by inviting North Korea to fight. Biden is giving them the ability to defend themselves. To see it as escalation is exactly what Putin wants.
Russia has mercenaries and PMCs. This decision is a positive reaction to an unstable dictator Putin who is being supplied with military aid from China. Russia is holed beneath the waterline. #nukesforukraine
Ukraine was the third largest nuclear power in the world when it unilaterally decommissioned it's nuclear arsenal. With the security guarantees it would be protected. If the US is going to renege on it's legal responsibility. Then he'll yeah #nukesforukraine to get them back to square one. Only fair
Putting it down to giving Putin a chance to extract himself and Russia from a three day special military operation to a three years of war. So now it's Make Russia Small Again #nukesforukraine
Think Trump ill be too busy with mass deportations and creating tent cities to bother with losers like Russia, China and Iran. A weaker Russian and China aids the US.

To date the consequences in Russia have all been taken by Russian mothers who's children came home in boxes.
It will be blamed on "The West" and their crippling sanctions when Russia just "defended itself" against Creeping Western oppression.
Peace plan the British & French falling in behind it as well we are heading for WW3
