Super interesting wright up, glad to see Ukraine standing their ground so well. This war has really been a wake up call for me about the state of Russia. At first I thought Russia was going to stream roll right through them with barely any casualties.
When the reports came out of just how old their tech was, I assumed they were just starting off with their surplus. But now that they're getting pushed back while starting to draft in more citizens is really eye opening.
I don't know how Putin fucked up so bad, I imagine he was hoping a more... sympathetic president would be in power in the US, but to still go through with it he must have been fairly sure that he would still win.
RE: Was locked out I have returned with news of Ukrainian counter offensive.
