Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine

Russia is just a big ammunition sponge at the moment. Western stocks of ammunition are depleted and we can’t deliver enough for a push, only enough to stay static.

But the biggest issue, I would argue, is that 3yrs in recruitment is stalled, or stalling. Doesn’t matter how much money or equipment you throw at it, if there’s no soldiers, or less than you optimally need.

JFMan’s observation of Zelenskyy effectively becoming a war time dictator, is valid.

Vitali Klitschko Is not 100% OK with some of Zelenskyy’s decisions of late, he’s a competent respected politician. What avenues does he have if things get worse? A coup d’etat?
