Two main causes led to Russia’s full-scale invasion: Western leaders don’t understand who Putin is, and they are indecisive.
In retrospect, the West should have listened to what Boris Nemtsov was warning them about over a decade ago.

Paul Warburg's view on China actually makes sense. Maybe China is just waiting for russia to begin collapsing, and then swoop in and seize huge parts of their territory. And who in the west will punish China for finishing off the fascist dictatorship in moscow?

I wish everyone in the US administration would understand what Adam is saying - and act accordingly. Supporting and befriending a crumbling fascist regime like russia, is even more stupid than starting a trade war with the rest of the world.
Russia isn’t winning. They’re burning through men, tanks older than your dad, and begging North Korea for troops. That’s not strength—it’s desperation. We didn’t let them win the Cold War, and we won’t let them fake a win now.
