Interesting read from the Daily Mail. They are suggesting if Ukraine can hold out for 10 days Mother Russia is screwed:

Putins Spend 20 Million Per day

quote:

Vladimir Putin’s invasion with Ukraine is not going to plan due to Kremlin ‘overconfidence’ about war aims

Ukrainian intelligence has claimed that Russia is running out of money, weapons and resources fast

If Kyiv can hold off the Russian advance on Kyiv for 10 days, the Kremlin may have to enter negotiations

Dramatic video shows a destroyed Russian convoy with Z-markings near Kherson in southern Ukraine

Two Russian military transport planes ‘carrying paratroopers’, a fighter jet and helicopter were downed




If this is true I don't think Putin has the humility to back off. I would expect indiscriminate attacks with much stronger bombs

Factually false because we know the trade amounts across the world.

And Europe is still using their oil and gas

This is just made up news. Aka fake news.

That would be an entire year of trade between Russia and the US. Irrelevant

The same sanctions they already said will hurt short term but they planned for them and will overcome?

Citing Ukrainian intelligence sources, Terras claimed that the war is costing Russia around £15billion-per-day, and that they have rockets for three to four days at most, which they are using sparingly.


No that is billion with a B. Prior to the invasion, Russia only has a 125 billion ruble surplus which Putin probably thought was enough but he obviously didn’t expect the Ukrainians to fight or the mass protests at home. The ruble has lost 30% of its value since the invasion started. Russia could very easily run out of money next week if the cost per day figures are correct.

Not to be picky, Billion is abbreviated with a “G” .

They didn't overcome the last set of sanctions, which saw their GDP decrease by near 50%. They might have the public relations angle ready but the sanctions will have a real effect, especially if something like the central bank itself was sanctioned. The fallout would be tremendous.

I generally think Putin is a clever guy but I think he fricked up bigly this time.

Pretty much all of Asia is giving him blind support, so it probably won’t matter. The only thing is it’s going to piss off his populace
