Stock market collapsing is different to government collapsing as happened to Russia(USSR) in its wars. Free market economy will bounce back if the resources are sufficient to feed masses. Russia never recovered from the economic collapse in 1988 as over 30% of its population live without running water and built in toilets. All wealth generated by the massive petroleum discoveries of 1970's were pocketed by crooked Putin, KGB/FSB and oligarchs, built comfort zones in Moscow and StPetersburg and spent on yachts and palaces. Poverty suit Putin in the war however. For a couple of grand of dollars he could herd the poverty stricken masses to the meat grinder.To think Russia is winning this war you must be reading too much Russian propaganda.
Russia lost over 50% of the conquered land at the start when Ukraine was fighting with shoulder pads. With the massive arsenal acquired during USSR times, massive artillery superiority and massive population advantage, Russia is losing over 1000 a day and going after despotic country such as NthKorea for weapons. You are badly brainwashed to thinks Russia is fighting with NATO. Russia is fighting against Ukraine and ~2% of NATO outdated weapons. UKR hasn't even got F16's yet. If Russia is fighting against NATO they will be confronting F35's and got no chance in hell. You are obfuscating.
