    That’s a problem for the EU to figure out. Maybe antagonizing its biggest neighbour hoping that US will come charging in to save the EU wasn’t the smartest idea in retrospect.

            Leaving aside the sheer absurdity of Russia attacking Europe, the fact that Russia has the biggest nuclear arsenal in the world appears to escape you. Of course, you also think that Russia is performing badly in Ukraine, so what else is there to say about you.

                The fact that people still can’t understand what’s happening in this war is a real testament to western propaganda.

                    Plenty of people have already explained what’s happening in the war. Here are two excellent articles from people with a clue that you might want to read.

                    • https://www.russiamatters.org/analysis/whats-ahead-war-ukraine
                    • https://mearsheimer.substack.com/p/the-darkness-ahead-where-the-ukraine

                    It’s incredible that you think Russia is just fighting Ukraine here while ignoring all the resources the west has poured into this war. Not to mention the fact that NATO was training and arming Ukrainian army for close to a decade before the war even started.

                    Russia is fighting a war of attrition with a very limited force, and it’s depleting entire NATO arsenals as western media openly admits now. If you think Russia is doing poorly here, then what can we say about the achievements of NATO in Afghanistan for two decades. NATO lost against the Taliban who didn’t have any support from anybody, or any modern weapons.

                    Not only is Russia prevailing on the battlefield, but Russia is also winning the economic war with the west. Russian economy is now growing while the west is going into a recession. Russia has massively increased its influence with the Global South, while the west is becoming the pariah of the world.

                    The fact that westerners can’t understand this is absolutely incredible.

                It’s pretty clear that you genuinely believe everything you wrote here, which means that no constructive discussion is possible with you. Enjoy living in your fantasy world while you can, it’s going to come crashing down soon enough. Best of luck to you.
