Russia is winning now, and hasn’t fielded the “real kit” either. NATO just does not have the productive capacity to field a long term war. I’m not sure why warmongers like yourself keep thinking there’s going to be a grand turning point, in a decade when we look back on this event I fear the warmongers will say they knew the outcome all along.
the warmongers will say they knew the outcome all along.
Ukraine war was instigated to eliminate nordstream and capture EU to US energy before renewables could take hold. Also sweet weapons profits. Absolutely the theater of it has a predetermined plot ending with Russia winning. The goal was to make that last 10+ years. Any end to any war is a defeat for US energy and weapons profits.
There is nothing militarily nato can do. Even if different countries wanted to help more and actually fielded armies, it would be a stalemate. Only a political solution will work.
Because it doesn’t have the power to take down an industrialized nuclear power like Russia in a short term war. I don’t see what you’re imagining here.
Last time they tried our grandparents took 105 days to beat Russia with very little formal military and even less hardware. Sure, we had some help back then too, but today it’s on a whole different level. And we’re just a single small country up north, NATO as a whole is quite a bit bigger.
Russia currently has lost million soldiers and stockpiles of soviet relics are pretty much empty with a strong breeze away from total economy collapse. They don’t have power to conquer a potato field from a modern western country right now, much less against the whole global west.
This is entirely divorced from reality. Modern western countries have hollowed out their industry, and can’t fight a true war against a peer country that’s actually industrialized. Russia’s economy is doing well, and they have strong trade through BRICS.
Because western countries do not have the industrial capacity for a long-term war nor the ability to topple a country as large as Russia in the short term.
They largely mean the same thing. Russia calls it the SMO, others call it the Russo-Ukrainian War, etc. It doesn’t really matter what it’s called, I’ve used the two interchangeably.
Russia has had its ass kicked with western hand-me-downs. Once they roll out the real kit, the whole thing will be over within days.
You’ll be greeted as liberators?
Well, not YOU personally . . . Chickenhawks saying this crap never seem to make it to the front lines.
And by had its ass kicked you mean defeated everything NATO could throw at it for the past 3 years.

Why do you think NATO would need a long term war to deal with Russia?
There is nothing militarily nato can do. Even if different countries wanted to help more and actually fielded armies, it would be a stalemate. Only a political solution will work.
Because it can’t win a short-term war unless it goes nuclear, and then everyone loses.
And why can’t it win a short-term war?

What makes you think they don’t have the power
Because western countries do not have the industrial capacity for a long-term war nor the ability to topple a country as large as Russia in the short term.
You are a master at dodging the question, I’ll give you that!
That’s a truck load of crap. If the real kit is old Soviet kit then you are right.
No, Russia has tools like Oreshnik that just don’t make sense to use against Ukraine at scale.

Not at all, and I don’t think ableism is a substitute for a point. I want the war to end, which means peace talks now and concessions from Ukraine.
Why should they concede anything. They’re a sovereign nation, and owe nothing. The war can end right now by Russia returning back whence it came.
Because they are losing the war. The world does not run on Marvel-logic, Russia isn’t going to stop until their stated goals are met.
Oh, now it’s a war again. Before that you called it a special military operation. At least you are learning. Slowly, but hey: baby steps.
They largely mean the same thing. Russia calls it the SMO, others call it the Russo-Ukrainian War, etc. It doesn’t really matter what it’s called, I’ve used the two interchangeably.
They may be “losing”. But Russia isn’t entirely “winning” either.
Russia is winning, that much is clear at this point.
How much ground does Russia have now at day 1000 ish vs day 3 of their invasion of a sovereign nation?
