@justgames9516 Russian army is suffering greatly, but like they've always done in their history they have the population size to take huge losses and keep on going. If Russia and Ukraine had the same population size, Russia would've been done and have retreated out of Ukraine long ago. So many conflicts in the past where Russia has relied on its size to overwhelm their opponents and here they are doing it again. It works but its very costly.

How has neutrality benefited Finland? Now that they've joined NATO there's ZERO CHANCE that Russia will ever invade them. Why do you think Russia is so desperate to keep Ukraine out of NATO? Because they know that once they join, Ukraine is lost forever to them unless they want to invade and start a war that they truly can't win. That's why they're in Ukraine now to stop it.

@Tonik-13 Neutrality is what guaranteed Finland's security. Finland was a bridge between Russia and the West, and it was very profitable. Now Finland has become a target. Neutrality meant that Finland always had to be mindful of Russia and to not do anything to provoke them into possible threatening military force against them. Now that they're apart of NATO they're among allies who will come to their aid should Russia attack for whatever reason. Just look at Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia and ask yourself do you really think that they would still be independent nations if they all weren't apart of NATO instead of being absorbed into Russia or become Russian puppet nations like Belarus has become? Somehow I seriously doubt it. Russia wants to keep Ukraine out of NATO because Putin, for some reason, loves Ukraine and does not want to destroy it in the event of a global mess. This is HILARIOUS. Putin 'loves' Ukraine so much that's he completely wrecking that country right now 'out of love'!! LOL. How does this even make sense?!?!? LOLOLOL!! Why not just admit that Putin doesn't want Ukraine to join NATO because he knows that once they like every other country that joins is fully protected from ever being invaded by Russia ever again? What makes you think that Russia certainly wants to attack some countries and the only insurance against evil Russia is NATO? There was literally a plan for Russia to take Moldova after Ukraine that Lukashenko revealed so that they could 'free' the Transnistrians the same as they did in Crimea and then the Donbas. Also they have already shown repeatedly that they have no problems threatening or actually using their military to get what they want in places like Georgia and Chechnya. If you think Russia isn't a threat then just ask yourself why so many countries are BEGGING to be apart of NATO and NO ONE begging to stay in the former USSR? If the Soviet Union was so great and beneficial to all the nations that were apart of it then why would it have broken up and many of those nations that were formerly apart of the USSR fleeing westward to join the EU and NATO? The Russians FORCED nations to become apart of the USSR and the Warsaw Pact. NO ONE is forcing nations to become apart of the EU and NATO and in fact you have to go through an entire process to become apart of both organizations.

@justgames9516 I don't think the biggest problem is equipping individual soldiers for Ukraine. Its making sure the Ukrainians having enough artillery, rockets, drones etc. to keep fighting with. Small arms and bullets are probably the easiest to resupply Ukrainians with while getting enough ammo for larger weapons systems is the problem right now in addition to getting more of those systems.

@justgames9516 You are kinda right but you are forgetting one small thing. Ukraine is poor, no military industry at all and heavily relies on the west. No matter their population if nato didn’t supply weapons (which they should to avoid even more deaths) Ukraine would have been gone in a couple of days maybe weeks but since Ukraine revived about 300 billion or so I think they are collapsing slowly. Ukraine isn't a rich country, but it isn't 3rd world poor either and its why they wanted to join the EU so that they could have a better chance at growing their economy compared to sticking with Russia. Also Ukraine's defense industry is actually pretty good, just that it hasn't had much of a chance to go into major production when its being heavily disrupted by the war and they have to setup factories outside of Ukraine. If you lookup some of the weapons systems they've developed, they're actually really good. Stugna P ATGM system is probably their most famous weapon right now with how many Russian targets its taken out so far. Also they're ramping up production of their 2S22 Bohdana artillery system which is similar to the French Caesar and their drones are getting better and more lethal as the war goes on. And of course Ukraine would've been done without NATO help. You're talking about a country with a vastly smaller population, landmass and stocks of equipment compared to Russia. Only way to fight such a huge opponent is with tons of outside help. However if both nations had the same population and Ukraine still received NATO assistance, they would've probably already pushed the Russians out of most if not all of Ukraine by now. Ukraine has obviously taken significant casualties in this war, but the Russians have taken vastly more and if both nations had about the same population size, Russia would be done for by now. I don't know why conflict after conflict Russia leaders never seem to care about the amount of losses they take as long as the mission is accomplished. With just even A LITTLE BIT of care they could save so many of their men's lives and not have to continually recruit more men to replace their preventable losses.

@justgames9516 my point is still correct. Ukraine would be gone without aid. They don’t make their own tanks, planes or weapons I don't disagree that Ukraine would be done without outside help. They don't have a huge population, nor do they have a huge country so unlike Russia they can't afford to continually retreat when attacked or simply throw away men to stop their enemies. So this doesn't change the fact that Russia has often survived and won conflicts simply because of the size of their nation and the amount of people they have and not like the US who win or at least minimize their casualties because of good training, tactics and highly technological weapons. And lastly Ukraine DOES have a defense industry and its steadily growing. Before the war Ukraine DID produce their own modified versions of Russian tanks and other armored vehicles. Also as I said before it was building its own artillery systems before too. So yeah Ukraine doesn't build its own jets or something, but its defense industry is pretty significant and will only get bigger after the war.

@Akrus15 The armies of France, UK and Germany are in a very horrible state and they have all together around 100k men they can send. All without real combat experience. They would face half a million Russians who have high intensity combat experience for two years now. Good luck lads!! France and UK have better trained men even if many of them might not have combat experience while Russia has men with combat experience, but many of them with little training. I'll put my money on NATO troops over Russian troops anyday and the only reason Russia is still fighting now is because they have no problems with throwing huge numbers of men away as long as they achieve their objectives. Also things are much different when you have an actually good airforce that can gain air superiority over your opponent.
