no military analysis i've read so far takes the economy into account when you look at just how deeply russian industry (and entire economy overall) was interwoven into Western supply chains, and how import from China has dropped also, you begin to realize that there may not be much remaining of the Russian economy half a year from now. a wholesale collapse of most sectors of the economy. ironically this is also the reason China isn't helping Russia. China isn't a charity hivemind. China consists of for-profit investors. and in their calculation, there isn't much sense to invest in Russia right now, in fact it's wise to pull out, cut the losses, and weather the storm
the victim of this will be Russia of course. no military analysis takes an economic collapse into account. Russian gains are minimal. the grindfest that began 3 months ago and ended up with huge casualties netted in Popasna and Severodonetsk. that's it. soon, they will take Lysychansk. that means they only managed to capture Luhansk by July, essentially equating the fighting skill and pace of the "second strongest army in the world" to about the level of 2014 russian glow-op "militiamen." and in the end russia will lose, just like those "militiamen" did in 2014, with one key caveat being that russia has no "bear" to fall back on like those "militiamen" did—because they're the supposed-bear-but-actually the militiamen themselves. and this is all after losing at Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, and on the Mykolaiv-Kherson axis, stalling elsewhere (Kryvyi Rih push failed, Zaporizhzhia push failed, every encirclement attempt failed including the one at Zolote, with only a few dozen confirmed POWs)
so the most realistic assessment of the situation while still keeping brevity is: >Russia is winning, like Nazi Germany was in 1942 Ukraine has clear prospects of winning the war, and clear objectives (milestones to take, including in rearmament). Russia does not
Russia is export based so a strong Ruble is bad. Russia is still losing.

>Selling less goods of the same amount of cash is bad, see Russia is fucked. Why are Anglos always this dense?
Jaxson Thomas
this defensive pact sures loves to start wars and destroy 3rd world countries. now theyre up against someone competent, theyre seething like school children.
so they're earning 4,000 rubble a barrel instead of 7,500
Hunter Sanchez
Javelins and stingers both rely on outdated and long since discontinued components, but Biden ordered raytheon or whatever to reverse engineer their meme missiles instead of making an entirely new system, so something that should take half a year will take a lot longer for no gain. No one makes the missiles themselves currently, and there are huge stockpiles so it's not needed.
This image is retarded. Kosovo has a right to exist because they are an ethnically Albanian area that the Serbs tried to genocide, but after a deserved NATO bombing campaign, the Serbs were bought to heel and Kosovo got its freedom. Donetsk and Lugansk belong to Ukraine and the Russians there can fuck off back to Russia or be kicked out.
>irrelevant pohol opinions is that why crpyto crashed, the market is in free-fall, inflation mushrooming, widespread strikes over cost of living, etc...
pohols are the ultimate whores. they were the first country to say >sure glowniggers, you can extra rendition your captured hajis here for waterboarding and ass rape
They are earning the same amount of foreign currency, that they'll later use to import shit. More if we count that fuel prices have gone up.
It's better to have 4000 rubles you can trade for 400 yuan in industrial goods than 7500 rubles that you can trade for 300 yuan in industrial goods.
Carter Kelly
Yes, they did, they killed loads of ethnic Albanians in Kosovo. The NATO bombing campaign worked and the Serbs were forced to grant independence and the Albanians got their freedom.
Hunter Fisher
>If you're not being sarcastic: rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/commentary/return-industrial-warfare Thank you. This is a perfect example of the worst part about the West: people would rather stick their head in the ground than actually acknowledge the problems. We don't have the industrial capacity to do any major warfare. Instead of trying to fix the problem, we try to fix the consequences with meaningless information warfare and psy-ops. It's stupid and embarassing.
>nooo muh heckin albanianos living in serbian state needed to be saved! >ah yeah russians could fuck back to russia from the donbass, idk lol This is your brain on Anglo.
But the Ukrainian persecution of Russians in 2014 is perfectly fine Burning people alive is fine, yes? Police refusing to prosecute the offenders because the victims were of a different ethnic group is fine, yes? The hypocritical west shows its ugly head again
Michael Perez
To be fair... the advantages Depleted Uranium penetrators give is worth the cost of potentially harming civilians in the process, or at least the military thinks so.
Levi Sanders
>They are earning the same amount of foreign currency that they can't do shit with, except convert into rubble at the rate that they do >that they'll later use to import shit if they could, they would be doing that now. russia is desperate to weaken the rubble atm, but impotent also. rubble will remain weak, because import will remain weak. take a hint:
Jace Rogers
1 Albanian = 1 Ukrainian 1 Albanian = 5 Russians
Please do the math. Russians were brought into Ukraine by the USSR, and Ukraine prior to the USSR existing was a mostly pure ethnically Ukrainian territory. Russians and Ukrainians are very different people, but Ukraine beats Russia in every metric anyway.
Aaron Gonzalez
So did Ukrainians with ethnic Russians in DPR LPR you imebcile, except Ukrainians killed multiple times more than Serbs
Gavin Morales
>Anglo Albanian diaspora my man. Reminder that Albanians did not invent anything on this planet.

>/chug/ falls for low effort bait again
Noah Evans
Tell me what the ethnic difference between an Albanian and a Serb is. Put them side by side and tell me who is who.
Alexander Mitchell
Ukraine belongs to Lenin achsually, he invented it.
Lucas Thomas
Those Russians in Ukraine are an introduced species, Albanians in Kosovo are native and have always been there. There should be no Russians in Ukraine.
>that they can't do shit with Of course, they can, fortunately for Russia the west doesn't produce anything she needs, she can get everything from China.
>if they could, they would be doing that now. russia is desperate to weaken the rubble atm, but impotent also. Now this sound like a lie.
Noah Thomas
No, it was imperial germany and the austrians who did it
