    So? They can support their war for a long time, europe, china and india would buy their resources, china would continue to supply them. They are desperate for some kind of victory so they can start preparing for the next war in the earnest. As for all they have left, they are making ‘smart’ bombs, they are making rockets, tjey are making fuckton of different military hardware.

              It doesn’t matter if anyone cares or not.

              When all commercial banks go bankrupt, there won’t be much anything to call an economy left in the Russia.
              Of course they can just print a _lot_ of money to bail out the banks, but then that has the consequences of printing a lot of money.

              They can non-care as much as they want, but their economy will die anyway. And then they won’t be able to pay their soldiers anymore. At which point it is bye-bye for the Russian occupation.

                You are under impression that they are somehow liberal market economy, it’s a dying empire with extremely loyal subjects that choosing between food on the table and glorious empire chose the latter 10 times out of 10. And they won’t be allowed to collapse completely by bigger european countries, by usa, by china. Essentially everyone roots for fucking r*sia, except those that border them, because it would be inconvenient if that shithole collapses.

                  I know Russians would choose that way.
                  They choose to live separate from reality.

                  But once you have no food on the table, you die. When you have no food in the table, it’s irrelevant what you choose. The physical reality will start dictating the course of action.

                  Russians can want all the want. But in the end they’ll have to bend to laws of physics.

                    soviet union existed with ration cards for 40 years and they absolutely adore that abomination.
