Well Ukraine is fighting on it's own soil, we already understand they're getting wrecked due to this war and will face difficult decisions but Russians never expected to be directly impacted by this.
I personally know some military reservist. They have all gone through full training and the report one weekend a month to keep up on their training. Almost all of those 300k are ready right now. IMO Russia has already sent a least 20k of them to areas that are in need the most like Lyman.
half a year of actively fighting NATO proxies changes everything. Europe has always had mandatory conscripts, thats just their warmongering culture, ukrain, Norway etc
I hope , you don't suffer .
dude who or why are you trying to flex for? pre war Ukrainian citizen is poorer than a average sri Lankan, Russia is richer than Turks
Varzone, using this kind of propaganda is a pathetic attempt to show the world that it's all falling apart in Russia. The Russians don't indulge in self pity the way the west does. In fact it's looked down on in their culture. Unfortunately self pity is embraced in the USA as compassion, but in reality it's insincere empathy.
Russia should have gone full strength in the first wave itself and overwhelmed Ukraine before they could get western supplies. It's their own fault.
It is what it is, poor people dying for politics.
neither are strong as they were at start of the war, cannon fodder and nato stock can only do so much for a onslaught that russia could throw at them, whats stopping russia from dropping non nuclear WMD on ukrain stronghold and raiding the aftermath . Nato has already giving them rocket artillary that can hit Moscow, they change the game, putin just doesnt have the balls to face the political blowback
huh, defensive doesn't mean its one on one physical battle only...its a posture in which one is reluctant to attack or afraid to attack inspite of having ability to do so. Anyone coming from martial arts background would know even with little sparring experience. It is a fact we are a net land loser and so far did not add an additional inch that is ours not to mention that is not ours. First you say we never got defeated, is this a joke on our history?
Doesn't matter bhai, Putin said goal was to stop attacks on donbass and that is not achieved as of today. No one asked Putin to tie his own hands. I don't understand stupid rules that Russia and India impose on themselves like India not carrying weapons aka Galwan....no cure for stupidity. Eventual winning could also be a loss wasting so many patriots lives because you are calculating weakly. Sometimes some enemies only understand brute and merciless force and it needs to be shown that way....
if you can believe in 15K ukrainians dead figure that you keep tossing around after months of forced conscription of ukrainians, please tell me why suddenly you cant extend the same consistency for russian losses vs mobilisation ?
Putin was humiliated at SCO so he is doubling down to prove he is still relevant.Vatniks also doing Mykola like things.. when it comes to mobilized cannon fodder..
Now, I get why Ukranians are actually Russian only..
Yes, that's a big part of it. Here's a very interesting video. You keep on talking and believing that Ukraine will probably win. In many ways you're correct, at least in a hypothetical way . If Russia didn't partially mobilize their odds of their winning in the long run becomes a flip of the coin. Russia didn't respond quick enough to US and NATO's escalation of this war. In May when lend lease was announced, Russia should of immediately responded with partial mobilization. I've been very critical of Russia's approach in Ukraine. I think another big mistake Putin made was under estimating the pure hatred the western leadership has for Russia. Do you remember that video where I believe a Norwegian diplomat told those kind Russians working at the desk of that hotel, "I hate Russians"? There are a lot of hateful, evil western leaders. Look at all the hatred for the average Russian person going on. Do you think the average American is a free person? Trust me, they're a slave instead, because they are not an independent person that's free to think for themselves. When I look at this from a higher logical level, I see that history is repeating itself, because our governments are not learning from the mistakes of history. As far as the conflicts of India are concerned. I hope your leaders can find peaceful solutions with China and Pakistan. Don't repeat the same mistakes the west has made.
OK, good to know.
how can indian military or govt be BLAMED for the loss of a territory that was not ours to begin with, when it was lost ?!?
