Summary
Regardless of Putin’s decision regarding the war in Ukraine, Russia’s economy is facing a crisis due to factors such as sanctions, a shrinking sovereign wealth fund, and a labor shortage. The war has boosted growth, but Russia cannot sustain it without significant economic consequences.

Oh boy happy fucking birthday to me I guess
Good.
I have a dream where I visit St Petersburg, Finland soon.
Or maybe even Královec.
Koenigsberg Poland should be pretty cool too.
The damage he’s already done will last generations
I certainly hope so.
You shouldn’t. The shit that’s happening today is a direct result of previous fuckers that did generational damage. This one will only continue the cycle
They could have stopped at any time, but once their three day plan failed, putin decided to engage in a money-burning competition against a group of countries with a combined gdp roughly 25 times theirs…
He’s not relying on Ukraine’s allies running out of money, he’s betting that they’ll lose interest and/or vote for pro-Russian stooges before he loses the ability to win the war.
For him this is the best possible outcome. He remains relevant and firmly planted on the throne until he dies. Endless but not very active trench war is his dream, even a victory, whatever that could look like, is worse for him
Good. Russia deserves generations of misery for what they’ve done to Ukraine.
…not if he wins the war. Like japanese in late WWII. Die hungry or die fighting.
Nah, not even then
Not only there is almost no possible scenario of him winning by any possible sane metric, there is no reality when Russia is recovering from this shit without fundamental changes. Whatever win can be, it’s impossible and wouldn’t help.
I absolutely agree with you on the impossibility to win by Russia, unlike most people nowadays. Like the ones who are sure Russia will win the instant Trump gets to office. Not even close to military complex and diplomacy realities.
About recovering economy, history proves the loser always loses big. Russia would never recover from war reparations + sanctions, unless it completely became a Nato satellite state, like Germany and Japan did after WWII. Of course we all know that will never happen with Russia.
Just to remember the only State in history to pay full war reparations is Finland and they did no big destruction.
How sweet is sound!
fuckem.
