Very dangerous moment. 100 percent certainty the US and NATO will enter the war, should Putin order a nuclear strike on Ukraine. The US has warned Russia and said the US and allies have everything in place.

As reported, NATO air asset in Eastern Europe is already running on "Dark" mode, they had turn off their transponder and F-35 have their Lumberg lens removed. That's what the NATO Air Force is going to do if and when there are indication Russia is going to use nuke.

You cannot include all US population.

Republican White kids are no longer interested in joining US military.

Democrat white kids are rich and not interested in joining US military anyway.

That leaves blacks, latinos and immigrants who want a green card to join the US military to be the guinea pigs.

Ukraine claims over 60,000 Russian soldiers killed and Lyman 'cleared'

Of the 60,110 Russian soldiers that have died fighting, according to the Ukrainian armed forces, 500 were lost in the last 24 hours, mostly in the areas of Kramatorsk and Bakhmut
www.dailymail.co.uk www.dailymail.co.uk

And ... winter has yet to "come".... with destroyed ammo dumps and food stocks/supplies and poor russian logistics - Russia's ability to simply occupy land it has currently is massively comprimised - let a lone fight a contested war.. you are now looking at the start of the total collapse of the Russian presence in large swathes of occupied Ukraine.

HIMARs has totally destroyed the offensive capability of the Russian Army and also destroyed their ability to occupy those lands in winter conditions ...

Russia had to "wrap" this up before winter - and it has failed .. and in doing so - now - the entire special operation is due to collapse. I dont think Russia expecting to fight a war in winter and i really dont think they prepared for one, nor can they now prepare for it..

That’s why I don’t understand. Russia has massiv lands, why they need more? Putin and his gang, nothing more than thieves.
Anyway, talking to dummy seems worthless. Ukraine army is on the move. That matters.

Russia has lots of land. But it is bad cold land in the north. Yakutia has 3 million square kilometers, only 1 million people. Farming is not possible in Yakutia. Russians need southern land just as Manchus need southern land for farming and invaded China.

60,000 is a lot but for a country of 151 million it's nothing. Also, Ukrainians have suffered just as many dead if not more. In terms of population advantage Russia gets better of Ukraine over time.
