Nevertheless, it was surprising to me as well to see what rusty old tanks the Ruskies have. They rely on those wrecks to invade Ukraine. Seems like the shape of their military is way worse than what we see showed off on parades.
Russia is far below NATO level (technically) or, they are keeping their modern equipment on the mainland to protect Russia? Or they just don't have enough of it or, they don't want to risk them being blown up, because that would be terrible PR and demoralizing for the military. Who knows, we will never know, perhaps.
It is mad how the west keeps pushing for war, instead for pushing for a peace deal. They are heartless and cynical and will keep pushing for war until many more thousands will die.
This is not necessary. But for "geopolitical chess" played by the EU-US conglomerate, they are going to wait until many many people die, so that they can blame it on Russia. Then they will find a "reason" or pretext to exploit Ukraine push even more sanctions against Russia.
Instead, they could stop the aggression and push Putin to dialogue and save many many lives and, save Ukraine from destruction.
Russia's brutal attacks are going to transform Ukraine into Syria. And the west could stop this with political-economic measures/pressures.
Instead, the west is counting on the war to continue, because it erodes the Russian economy, they will have more "reasons" to blame Russia and surround it with more bases, plus the refugees from Ukraine are valuable and cheap work force.
I am sorry for all victims of the war, regardless of their nationality/origin. This entire war is very stupid and must end.
Meanwhile, the EU's economy is going down the drain...
What peace deal do you have in mind when Ukrainians don’t want Putin and Ukraine is all Putin wants?
