Tell me how Russia's breathtaking logistical prowess will enable this impressive maneuver, comrade.

I've put no timelines on this conflict like the media has. This is likely to last years. However, unless Ukraine receives massive amounts of not just aid, but troops, it will be death by 1000 cuts.
I don’t think Putin has years. The longer this drags on the more pressure will be placed on the Russian economy. They do not possess the production capacity nor do they have the currency to purchase arms to sustain years of war.
Ukraine will be propped up by Poland and other Eastern European countries that do not wish to share a border with Russia

Probably the same way they did in Mariupol. Sending warm bodies until the objective is done.
How does having a discussion about the war make one a comrade?
Is this the depth of your mental faculty?

Beyond taking Popsana, what gain has Russia made anywhere in the south? By gain, I mean move the front lines forward by at least 5km

Russia isn't alone though. Do you think China would favor the US over Russia? Do we not consider China and India's ability to fight the west via this proxy?

I make no claims to my mental faculties, but you might want to look up the meaning of "logistics."
(Hint: There's a difference between medieval bombardment of a city and running a military through open countryside.)

I dont need to look it up. You were making a snide remark and I called you on it. Just because I have started a discussion talking about it not being so "bright" for Ukraine doesn't make me a Putin puppet, comrade or whatever else you guys throw around in here. Obviously, its a dynamic and serious situation.

Russia has proven unworthy of a Chinese gamble in siding with them against the west at this point. Had this gone as expected, maybe it’s a different story.
India and China are not going to be on the same team boss.

Whenever I think of China and India, the first thing that comes to mind is their long friendship and allied interests.

You can laugh, but the US and uhhh the "Soviets" fought against the Nazi's.
Again, I make a valid point in opposition to the point that Russia "has no means" by stating Russia is currently making deals and has support from the worlds 2 largest population centers and this is what you guys reply with.
I dont know, maybe you guys dont actually want to talk about it all and just want to upvote eachother.

They have each acted individually for their own self interests, largely walking a tightrope as to not publicly take a side and jeopardize their own geopolitical positions with the west.

We were just begging Venezuela and Iran for oil, we on their side now too?

I dont disagree with that, but it is of importance that both are making financial deals with Russia which in-turn helps Russias war efforts.
In the same way, as mentioned here, NATO countries helping Ukraine.

China and India are not going to plot together to work with Russia to undermine America
They literally just had a conflict with troops killed on both sides in hand to hand combat with in the last couple years.
India has remained neutral in all this due to deals buying Russian arms, but the last few years have moved more to getting American equipment
India and China will never be partners, that entire area along with Pakistan is a giant powder keg.

I never mentioned them as partners. I only mentioned them together as they are the 2 largest actively working with Russia.
If it wasn't so hostile in this thread that part probably would have been noticed.
I was replying to this comment above:
With India and Chinas help, they certainly do have the currency and capacity.

NATO countries have still been buying Russian energy, but that doesn’t count because they didn’t get it at a discount like India?

Who said it didnt count as support?
Like I said, are you just trying to argue because you think I am pro-Russian or something?
