  9.  @Warren_Peace  I do not disagree with you in regards to western support. Without it and Russia would eventually take the country and then endure an occupation 50x worse than America in Iraq. However, if the entire free democratic world do not stop supporting Ukraine it is inevitable that Russia will be removed from Ukraine. Crimea is another chapter/story. In reply to the first paragraph. People have been saying these things flippantly on both sides throughout. However, I’ve only said this when Russia looked to be actually culminating and on the back foot. This is what I see now. Let’s reminds ourselves as well that arguments for a Russian victory are pretty slim. They started their ‘offensive’ last November off the back of losing 60% of what they had at the apex of their invasion. Want to look at a map of how far they have come since then? Now overall as a fighting force I’ll also add that Russia really has illustrated over 15 months how they are not really an efficient and professional fighting force. It’s conventional land military capabilities have been shown up. The worlds perception of its capabilities has been pooped on for a couple generations. It’s not just that your Russian soldier is poorly trained, equipped, led, supported and motivated. There is literally not 2 of them that have the same fatigues and gear. It just looks like an oversized amateur operation. And this is against Ukraine given a fraction of NATO capability. Fir the most part it’s just been standard things like ATGM, armoured vehicles. Almost all tanks they’ve got are donated t72s or various other types from their best supplier, the Russians. So if the west now starts pumping in real gear it’s not not going to be sustainable for Russia in Ukraine. At least not the territory they still have. Lastly, you can’t ignore the standard of equipment left to send to the front. It’s been getting progressively worse over time. We know from satellite pictures of all their depots how many and the types before the war and now. Literally half their tanks are gone and their most numerous type of tanks left in storage to send are t50/60 series. They are of course producing new tanks. Albeit not faster than their attrition rate on the battlefield…
