One could say that these constant entanglements are what turns you into Cal.UW_Doog_Bot said:

At least you are honest that it was all about killing Russians instead of pretending it was about protecting Ukrainians and saving democracy.UW_Doog_Bot said:
They lost their black sea fleet and lots of other irreplaceable strategic assets. This talking point is at least a year out of date.huskyhooligan said:Bruh, I think I stated this pretty early. My nephew, in the military, stationed in Poland at one point during this, and completely on the spectrum when it comes to weapons, tanks, artillery, you name it. Early on he was like "Russia basically just threw out their old equipment to start and will roll when they use their modern equipment." Russia truly rolls Ukraine rather easily, one might say even 34-17 without foreign aide. This would have been Oregon vs. Portland State, but in this case Portland State (Ukraine) had the refs (NATO) and NCAA (USA) on their side so the score looks closer.
You have a lot of issues in that part of the world where ethnic Russians, for multiple reasons, have not fully embraced the country they were left in. Maldova being the next best example after the Ukraine. Part of it might be due to the cultures of the countries being too similar to Russia, but surely old and likely very very small ethnic tensions probably are the biggest factors. -
That's kind of the position Russia is in regarding Ukraine no?Bob_C said:

Our current "entanglement" in UKR could be ended tomorrow with a pen stroke if it's in our best interests.

Dagestan is rioting again and Russian defense forces were lined up and shot in Armenia by the Azerbaijani sqwad. So far Russia's response has been to quietly look the other way but I'm hearing they could end this tomorrow with their best troops.

“Their chief advisor yesterday said they’re likely to lose this war if they lose US support. And Putin gets all of Ukraine, then what? Then where does he go?” the former admiral told reporters. “Because right then, he’s up against the eastern flank of NATO. And if you think the cost of supporting Ukraine is high now, just imagine how much higher it’s going to be. Not just in national treasure, but in American blood, if he starts going after one of our NATO allies.”
