Russia-Ukraine War - News, Discussions & Updates

[Yommie]

Let’s see. Putin will win the next election with 99.99 percent. That will give him 6y more to rule Russia. By then he will be close 80y. Assuming he changes the constitution again and continues to consume super drugs he will reach 100y old age.
The war can continue for 26y. Not 500y.

Disagree. China is keeping both sides in the game. It is beneficial for China if the war does not end. As long as war continues, millions of Slavic women flee from Russia and Ukraine, many if not most of them end up in China where they can go a long way to balance out China's gender ratio.

China does not want to see Russia win. China does not want to see Ukraine win.

Thermobaric is just about the only thing in this conflict that can dismantle fortifications. Western countries don't have thermobaric. Only Russians have thermobaric.

The war continues after Putin. China bankrolls this conflict with a lot of money. And I mean a LOT. The war benefits China by blocking Western companies from the lucrative Russian consumer products market, leaving it only to Chinese companies.

Russia is a cheap gas station. nothing else. do you think China sees Russia than the West sees Russia? if Putin refuses to give discount on oil and gas then nobody including China won´t buy. what can Putin do? threaten China with nukes?

Putin´s economy is like a man on drug overdose. Russia is the most sansctioned country on earth, more than all the "evil" countries from Iran to Cuba combined.
there is a study by German economic think tank "Ifo":

- Russia economy lost 1.4 million men since the invasion. 500,000 in the army with many of them either dead or wounded. 900,000 russians just pissed off with no return ticket.

- in 2023 Russia export revenues shrank by 32 percent, while imports increased by 17 percent, that is unsustainble.

- the rubble crashed by 30 percent.

- the trades EU with Russia shrank by 70 percent.

- Russia economy totally relies on China, Turkey, India

- Russia car industry is dead. totally relying on Chinese car imports

Putin pushes Russia economy into overdrrive with massive overspendings on military. that will end very ugly.

So haben zwei Jahre Krieg und Sanktionen Russlands Wirtschaft wirklich verändert – und diese Rolle spielen China und die Türkei

Russlands Wirtschaft läuft nach zwei Jahren Krieg und Sanktionen unter Vollast, hat sich aber dramatisch verändert, laut einer Ifo-Studie.

China, Russia, Belarus combined is bigger and more powerful than the former USSR. In addition, Russia forms a vital link on the China Britain train line. Keeping Russia in the game but not letting Russia win is the name of the game for China.

All aboard the China-to-London freight train

The Yiwu-to-Barking express is the newest way to send your freight from China to Europe.

Russia don't need to trade with EU. Russia can buy whatever cars they want from China.

- Russia car industry is dead. totally relying on Chinese car imports

Russian car designs are bland anyway. It's not like Russian cars can compete with Chinese cars anyway.

Putin´s economy is like a man on drug overdose. Russia is the most sansctioned country on earth, more than all the "evil" countries from Iran to Cuba combined.

Irrelevant. China has 10 times the population of Russia. China can supply whatever Russia needs and wants.

- Russia economy lost 1.4 million men since the invasion. 500,000 in the army with many of them either dead or wounded. 900,000 russians just pissed off with no return ticket.

The traitors left Russia. What remains in Russia are hardcore nationalists.

Putin pushes Russia economy into overdrrive with massive overspendings on military. that will end very ugly.

Russian arms industry is a tiny bit compared to WW1. In WW1 Russia built 200 million shells a year. Today Russia can only build 2 million shells a year.

powerful where? China is keen on making money. Ccp is not Russia´s friend. the chinese will loot the russians until underwear. China refuses to give any money to the new gas pipeline (power of siberia 2). the Chinese demand the russians to pay everything. in addition China demands a discount of 46 percent on gas delivery. has Putin other alternatives to sell gas? No. Ok, he can drink all the gas himself.

China will sell everything to the dumb russians with double the price, half the quality.

Chinese love Russia. Russia is second most favorite country of Chinese after China.

Russia has 140 million people. Ukraine has 33 million people. Russia has twice as many troops as Ukraine has. It's not like, you know, Ukraine can beat Russia in war.

Why would you spend that much money? You know, you can buy like 100,000 HJ-12 from China for like 10 million dollars right? 100,000 HJ-12 is enough to moosh every tank there is in Russia and Ukraine.

HJ-12 should "accidentally" end up in the arsenal of Kashmiris.
