Ukraine - Russia Conflict

Without stopping oil and gas money inflows into Russia, the US cannot effect change in Russia. Once the post war economy stabilises, with an even weaker currency, that earns them more per barrel, they can militarise faster than any other country on the planet.

In 10 years, when the US is distracted by a war over Taiwan in the Pacific, the Russians can invade the ex-Soviet states, and there's nothing the US, France and Germany will be able to do about it. The Russians will have both a numbers and technological advantage over Europe.

The US and NATO are setting themselves up for a grand clusterfvck.

That's him just being an American.
Which is why I keep wondering & asking him how the hell did the Americans get to build the most advanced material country in the world.

Then I recall that was mostly done by the previous generations. The present lot are well.... Take a look at @WHOHE.

I mean he's not exactly a representative of his generation but comes close to it.

Even now NATO-US are in a risky position if china makes its move, they cannot sanction it given the economic dependence. It will also get worse if there is peace immediately instead of a long running low intensity war. That will help russia put more focus elsewhere like syria where they might be no longer willing to compromise any more.
 


China Holds Talks With Ukraine, Further Edging Away From Russia​

  • China’s Wang Yi speaks on phone with Ukrainian counterpart
  • China ‘deplores’ outbreak of conflict, calls for resolution
This kind of report is basically nonsense
On February 28, Putin and Xi Jinping spoke on the phone
And the foreign minister was on the phone with Blinken, von der Leyen, and Ukraine,
This is China's attitude
China's opposition to NATO's eastward expansion is clear

China will play both sides

They will set up dozens of companies in Russia for Financing and Re-exporting Russian goods
and in Ukraine for Re construction contracts

Infact this war will pave the Way for Chinese BRI entry , right into Europe

Ukranian common people will suffer the most

There will be a huge jump in Human Trafficking
 
It seems the Russians weren't serious enough when they were planning to invade. The morale of their army is embarrassingly low to say the least. Considering the Ukrainians are a tiny military with barely any equipment the Russian performance has been abysmal.
 
The main implication for India from this event is that Russia will now emerge as China's bitch. The Chinese can hardball with the Russians as much as they want to make them drop support to India or backstab us at the opportune moment. Chinese will faf around with their 'support' to Ukraine till the Russians come to their senses.

Don't go by the propaganda coming out of either side. Ukraine has more or less already lost the war.

The Western propagandists decided Russia's objective for the Russians; where it has to capture Kiev within 3 days of Blitzkrieg; and then declared that Russia has badly failed for not meeting Western objectives for Russia.

In reality, nobody is stupid enough to plan to capture an enemy capital in 3 days of warfighting.

US led forces took 6 months to capture Baghdad. That was after constant bombing without any regard for Iraqi lives
