Why didn’t Russia level Kyiv when they clearly have the firepower? Russian bogged on too many fronts, ill equipped for ground war, poor training, failed to get its logistics correct and the tank columns were being off one by one. Belarus wasn't aiding the war effort as much a Putin wanted. Yes Russia could have level Kyiv, killed all its civilian inhabitants with a nuke of 2, or used those Mother of all Bombs again killing 100,000s of thousands... do you want that? Russian couldn't maintain the war effort on so many fronts, Hard to hide from the Russian people atrocities on that scale... I would like to think the broad Russian military isn;t that insane, and would push back against Putin.
Why didn’t Russia’s spies get rid of Zelenskyy? Couldn't get close enough, he is well protected and relatively safe walking the streets of Kyiv. Turned into a brilliant war time leader, amazed the world. Zelenskyy is living in a war zone, taking chances all the time to motivate his people. Meanwhile Putin is in Palace thousands of kilometers, keeping his advisers and Generals as far away as possible. Afraid of everything.
Why did Russia level Mariupol? It didn;t level everything, it left the Steel works and other major industrial prizes. Mariupol was an example to the rest of Ukraine, defy us and this is what is going to happen to your city. It did the same in Syria, lots of Nazi' is Syria . Mariupol is a strategic city for the east south corridor Russia is trying to establish in Ukraine land, a land heist. It is keeping civilians trapped in the city.
If Ukraine are winning why are they begging the west for more weapons daily? They obvious can't make the weapons on the scale needed to defeat the invading Russians. The weapons are highly sophisticated and targeted at destroying Russian Armour and air advantages relative to Ukraine. The west is providing weapons, many countries are supporting the broad effort to drive out a dictator from a land heist. No one is providing weapons to Russia. Ukraine is a soveriegn free country, it was invaded.
Are we heading for a crash of the USD, food crisis in the third world and rampant inflation everywhere else? If so, who gains? I don;t think so... not unless Putin really goes nuts and is able to launch a Nuke at the USA. Food crisis may eventuate for alot of poor countries due to Putin invading the Ukraine and reducing the wheat output. Ukraine was happily producing alot of food, making the region money and kudos for being a well integrated member of human society, unlike Putin's Russia. Russian economy is going backwards, isolation increasing, even China is is unwilling to back financially, withdrawing credit mechanisms. Russia's best friends are China and North Korea.
