Russia can hardly win against Ukraine or even hold the occupying territory for long , they are losing men and equipment like crazy , they lost 5 generals out of 20 generals appointed for the war . Fighting another nation would break Russia apart , it can only defend itself using nukes as a detterent

Western propaganda, all we can see is Nato cowards having no guts to directly engage Russia in Ukraine, Ukraine is being left all alone by themselves.

Are you reading too much of one-sided western garb.

Are you reading too much of one-sided western garb.

Propaganda aside, compare the Russian manpower and equipment losses to those of US during desert storm

They are barely making any progress now, It is evident that Russia is not having a good time.

This is what NATO is doing

So Nato has the guts to step in if Russians are not "making mistakes"? cowardice is cowardice.

Not everything is western propoganda. Being ignorant is a fools errand. For russia occupying ukraine should have been walk in a park but its ground forces are facing heavy resistance. Japan is a whole other thing. Japan is industrial hub of the world. They would literally rip russia apart if nukes are not taken into account.
P.S I am not pro russian or against russia. I am just stating a opinion based on recent events and statics

Do you seriously believe Russia stands a chance against NATO in a conventional conflict? Russia is a paper tiger nothing else. You can not have a good military wthout good economy and Russian economy is trash even Canada has a higher GDP. NATO has no reason to interfere when Russia is shooting itself in the foot. They don't consider Russia a threat anymore, there eyes are on China.

Russia didn't unleash its full might for concern of big civilian casualties, and the terrains are also very different, Iraq is vast desert with nothing to cover, perfect terrain for all scale motorized troops to move around, Ukraine is full of forest, fields, swamp. Don't foget , US only fled from Afghanistan last year abandoning tons of equipments and weapons.

Nato is a paper tiger, bluffing and cheerleading won't help the war in Ukraine, but they will be slaughtered if they get in, so they just stand by and watch, actions speak louder than words, always believe this.

Japan is a whole other thing. Japan is industrial hub of the world. They would literally rip russia apart if nukes are not taken into account.

Japan can rip Russia apart? am I hearing this right, how?

 

[Vergennes]

Japan's air force and navy being vastly superior to Russia's,a confrontation between the two will be hilarious.

Lol for real?

Putler need to stop getting high on drugs and made more strategic blunders.

Russia bombers circle Japan regularly, why Japan doesn't dare to do something about it if they are really that SUPERIOR as you suggested?

The Russian navy has been experiencing very serious problems in recent years. I don't think Russian Pacific fleet can create a deterrent to threaten Japan other than its nuclear strike capability.
