@joeswanson5486 Russia has 100,000 actively serving in Ukraine, as casualties are taken, the can draw from other units inside russia while having their original positions filled by reservists, as Russia has an active standing army of 1.014 million,, Ukraine had 700,000, they cant call on new divisions, of that 700,000, not all are even fighting in Ukraine, many divisions are spread across western europe reciving training for new weapons, they will not be able to do anything for weeks to months. This is a war of attrition, and Russia has more men and material to throw at it than ukraine can muster, every week the news is reporting at least two more towns that have fallen to Russian forces and this shows no sign of stopping.

@hazalnut8647 yeah, whose initial advance tied up thousands of Ukrainian soldiers, allowing the southern advance that has captured Mariupol, Severodonetsk and Lysychansk, while forcing Ukraine to suffer unsustainable casualties, with that context, yes it does fit the narrative of beating Ukraine, the last time Russia denazified Ukrain it cost 2 years and 2.4 million casualties, with that context, they're making much more progress with less casualties and taking less time to do so than before. Ukraine is running out of men, and hoping that western arms sales will save Ukraine is like hoping army group steiner would have saved Berlin. It's just not rational thinking.

@hazalnut8647 That's a blatant lie, Ukraine has a little over 500,000 active personnel with another 200,000 in the national guard and mercenary betallions. Russia has an active force of 1.014 million with an additional 2 million reservists, Ukraine is losing the conflict, ask the citizens of Mariupol, or Severodonetsk, or Lysychansk, or as of 15 hours ago, ask the citizens of Siviersk, All of the Donbas is in russian hands, and Russia only need to use 10% of their active duty forces thus far, Imagone 40%. I dont see NATO standing much of a chance against russia as they actively deplete their weapons reserve trying desperately just to slow the Russian advance, not to mention they couldn't even beat a few thousand poorly organized peasants with the technological capabilities of a RadioShack.
