nice to see something sensible for a change apart from the propaganda yeah true ....I must say it surprised me but Ukies are more motivated ...and certainly at the beginning putin was both stupid and arrogant to attack Kyiv with so few troops (and at the wrong time of year ) ....and clearly didn't know how hollowed out his military was by corruption and mismanagement
as to China I have a few thoughts ....lots of pro and cons and quite different to russia in many ways 1. I believe China more sensible and more risk averse than russia 2. China is dependant on western countries to buy their manufactured goods 3. Chinese military haven't fought a war in decades - inexperienced 4.China likely to be technologicaly stronger than russia ....and also bigger economy to support a military action 5.Chinese navy weak in aircraft carriers 6.China has big numbers of troops
but these days with technology changing so much it's hard to be too certain about anything much IMO .....if a new winning weapon was being kept umder wraps for instance
for sure all nations will be going to school on this present conflict - particularly drones and drone defences
