  1. I disagree with you on something. First, military ratings. Who compiles them? Who said that the Russian army is the second in the World? I am more than sure that this is a propaganda move - the United States needed to keep European countries in NATO, and therefore the US Department of Defense painted the image of a "strong and dangerous Russia." And in general, from a military point of view, it is better to overestimate the enemy in order to better prepare. As for the Russian and Ukrainian armies, it is important to understand that both Russia and Ukraine are two corrupt oligarchic post-Soviet states. In fact, the level of equipment and the level of training of troops in Ukraine and Russia are the same. When comparing these two armies, it is also worth considering that Ukraine receives a huge amount of weapons from the West, without which Ukraine would be bad, because Ukraine has lost the Soviet military industry, which could provide the army with supplies. As for the situation at the front, it is important to understand that Russia is fighting against Ukraine without mobilization, using only volunteers from among contract soldiers. Russia uses only 40% of the pre-war strength of its army when Ukraine conducts mass mobilization. Of course, it is worth mentioning the mobilization in the DPR and LPR, but there are not so many people there. Due to the growth in the number of the Ukrainian army, Russian troops lost their offensive potential as a result of the first weeks of the war, and now everything is decided by artillery, which Russia has 4-5 times more. Although Western weapons with satellite guidance have been destroying ammunition depots in the last month.

  2.  @pavelplachy560  "People in the EU don't like Russians." Why is it all of a sudden - what does the citizens of Russia and ordinary people have to do with the actions of the government? Why should Russians be held responsible? Based on this logic, the Americans are responsible for the war in Iraq, Yugoslavia and Libya. By the way, European countries also participated in US military operations. Has anyone imposed sanctions against the United States and Western countries? Speaking of collective responsibility, we should not forget that Europe buys gas, oil and resources from Russia. In 6 months, $84 billion was paid, almost recouping the 2022 military budget. You're talking some kind of Russophobic nationalist nonsense. Russia has done nothing that America would not do. But sanctions are being imposed against Russia, Russia will be disconnected from the World payment system, Russian culture is being canceled - events dedicated to writers, composers and creators from the 19th century, who have nothing to do with the war of 2022, are being canceled. And America can absolutely bomb anyone with impunity. You leave us no choice but to support Putin. Because only Putin, no matter how bad and corrupt he is, will ensure our independence, honor and protect our geopolitical interests. And Putin's opponents, all sorts of liberals, will hand us over to America and betray our independence. This in their understanding is called "democracy" and "freedom". We don't need such democracy and freedom.
