Ukraine has more than enough man power so that would be a dumb strategy. What they lacked during the initial invasion were modern weapons, we just handed them a couple trash cans of garbage last Gen weapons and look what they’ve been able to do :pachaha:

Don’t disagree , but Russia had 3-4x the military . Now you need 2-3x to overtake a country. Russia is huge and not all military is deployed into Ukraine as they also need to defend their borders and wide areas .

So while you say it’s a dumb strategy . It keeps the pressure and Ukraine to waste time and resources on basically cannon fodder. It’s another element of Russia trying to put financial pressure on nato and Ukraine. They will probably have a huge effort in the spring - if Putin lasts that long.

That’s the only thing to make sens

I would hope not. But it would be such a scary situation with everybody hovering over their red button that Russia would never nuke Ukraine and even risk it. When everybody is on high alert like that, sometimes folks see ghosts and get trigger happy. The world hasn't been in that situation since JFK was president and nobody wants to risk that, not even Putin.

He talking tough when he brings up Russia nukes, bluffing. There is no scenario where he lets one fly.
Respectfully. When it comes to your last paragraph. You don't know shyt.

Again, with us handing them last Gen old weaponry sitting out in a garage off Rammstein that strategy would be dumb because at this point we will supply them with weapons (not troops) to no end. If they lose the ground that took 5 months to gain and possibly start losing Crimea then all Ukraine will do is start fortifying itself where it learned valuable lessons.

You’re arguing Ukraine strategy and how they would defend long term , so not disagreeing

But this is what Russia is doing , they are putting cannon fodder out there for winter to prolong the war and hoping winter, oil constraints, and financial issues will cause nato harm that they can take advantage of

Russia is fighting a proxy war against the USA so Ukraine is not going to run out of resources, because they are being financed by the USA. Russia can take all the time that they want, but that ass whipping is going to continue as long as they are on Ukraine soil.

This war has shown that Russia is nothing but a bigger sorrier version of France with a President for life who is a low grade moron on the level of Trump.

Well it’s not just the US, it’s NATO countries. We will see how many stick to it through winter and potential recessions .

I think the US will continue but Congress has to sign off and we will see if they are still willing after mids - especially if trump-conservatives take over who we know are Russian sympathizers

I 100% agree with everything you and Spence are saying . What I’m saying is that is what Putin is playing for and I think he will lose but there’s like a 5% chance that his strategy works and he’s in such a dire position that he still is going for it

Oh and not to mention the referendum votes to make I Ukraine territory “official” Russian so that they can claim Ukraine and US weapons are being used on their territories so they can release low powered nukes

Russia has been a joke militarily for a long time. Why else do you think they were dropping like flies during World War II? America lost less than 2k soldiers in active combat in 20 years in Afghanistan and these clowns lost like 15k in less than half the time back in the 80s. They're a damn paper tiger.

Their only saving graces have been numbers, a callous nature and a hostile climate.
