Question to all pro-Russians here (you know who you are!): why do you support Putin sending waves and waves of Russian conscripts to their deaths? You keep on talking about how evil Ukraine is, etc but the losses on the Russian side are staggering and many, many Russians are losing their lives (destroying their family in Russia). I'm curious if you approve of the Russian Army's (or should I say: Wagner) WW2 strategy to send hundreds and hundreds of barely trained soldier to their deaths?
Crickets from the usual pro-Russian crowd. They either approve of this or are embarrassed. It's a lot harder to actually face reality instead of typing 'Ukraine Bad, Russia Good' all the time, isn't it?
Tough for some to understand that being anti war pro peace is not the same as being pro Russia or pro Putin. Thick heads around gobbling up all the bs on TV.
Do you support Zelensky sending his citizens to their death?
Economic forecasts for Russia vary quite a bit, but only the IMF is positive.
For 2023:
IMF +.4%
Census among Russian economists -1.5%
World Bank -3.3%
Bank of Russia -4%
Oil revenue was down 47% in January while government expenses were up 70%, resulting in a record setting Russian deficit of 1,760B Rubles or about $25B dollars.
25B is nothing new to the US with its $26000B GDP, but Russia's GDP was $1800B. It will probably never again reach that figure as they will never recover from this war. Post-war numbers will be very, very bad since many sanctions and boycotts will never be lifted.
To give Russia Ukrainian land just because they attacked civilians and took over?
“It’s okay now, go ahead and take the extra land and let’s stop the war.”
You will give a greenlight to everyone around the world that it’s okay to do this because in the end, you’ll get the land.
Betting you are from the same country as me. Don't you think it is hypocritical that people are so upset Russia is doing this now while the US has been and continues to do the same bs all over the World. If we can't agree on the fact Ukraine has been killing citizens in the Donbass since 2014 then we got nothin to talk about.
This all needs to stop. Sit down with Russia and see what the hell they want would be a start. That would be Russia and Ukraine not the US.

Amen.
As western governments seemingly have no interest in peace, we saw this demonstrated during last years' G20 summit.

Here is the head of the state propaganda channel telling you what they want.
He's basically confirming Gen Milley’s assessment yesterday that the Ru are tactically, strategically and operationally bust. The loss of troops and materiel is disastrous...every time they go on the offensive the returns are minimal. Honestly, I’m not sure what their options are anymore.
