Russia's economy is taking a dump for years or decades.
Russia’s efforts to salvage economy could have devastating impacts
Russia’s ties to the global economy are rapidly unwinding as crushing sanctions and the Kremlin’s response upend decades of post-Soviet reforms. The Kremlin announced strict …

The FL NG unit that was there for training had been relocated to NATO nations mid-February.

Austin made this decision “out of an abundance of caution — with the safety and security of our personnel foremost in mind — and informed by the State Department’s guidance on U.S. personnel in Ukraine,” according to the media release.
“This repositioning does not signify a change in our determination to support Ukraine’s Armed Forces, but will provide flexibility in assuring allies and deterring aggression,” the release states.
Task Force Gator soldiers, joined by NATO allies and partners, “mentor and advise Armed Forces of Ukraine Observer Controller / Trainers at the Combat Training Center located near Yavoriv, according to the JMTG-U website. They do this, according to the website, by employing a “train-the-trainer” approach, enabling Ukrainians to take the lead in training rotational brigades.
I hope you meant east Russia 🤞🏻
I can't imagine China sends troops.
They don't need to be tied to the outcome.
They I think would rather keep the non-intervention narrative (the exception notably being the countries on their border)
He's more likely desperate for munitions, drones, etc. and will cash'n'carry those kinds of things for discounted energy.
Edited to add: And trucks.
If they provide it, WWIII will start.
Tell me you are not a fan of Purdue or Iowa without telling me you are not a fan of Purdue or Iowa. Family dividing rivalry here. Intense. Poems written about the hatred.
It's amazing how Russia is admitting they've lost by publicly begging for help from Syria and China.

You doubt that NATO would defend one of its member countries?
If he hits a NATO country, China is screwed. NATO and the United States are 40+ trillion of GDP. Once we’re attacked, we can drop the hammer on anyone who continues to deal with Russia.
I’d say even Putin isn’t that dumb, but I honestly don’t know at this point.
I pray this is true, but it’s China. Can not trust a fvcking thing they say. If they back Russia, this thing is gonna spin the fvck out of control with a quickness.
I think you would see a lot of hair splitting over what constitutes an attack. Smaller, newer, member countries will be seen as expendable. Do you actually think they are going to risk their western comforts for Latvia?
If they don’t NATO will lose all credibility and crumble. They will have no choice but to engage with Russia, which I believe they absolutely will.
I can’t imagine what China would be thinking if they did agree to send weapons/troops.
Called it!!!
String the ****er up in a public square, bring back federal capital punishment for pukes like Tucker. Treacherous dog.
They killed a movie star who gave his flack jacket to a child while rescuing them. The Russians are fools to continue on. No living Ukrainian will ever accept them.
A heavy loss for HROT, too. The guy was the Ukrainian voice for Eric Cartman.
Why the holy heck would China back Putin and instantly end trading with their biggest trading partner?
Probably a bad translation-Putin was just ordering Chinese for lunch.
They’ve been sending the bidens $$$ for years. They can act without slow joe doing anything.
China has been the clear winner in all of this. They are getting as much Russian oil as they want, and they get it at a 20% discount. I think they will continue this current stasis for a while.
Tanks, bombs, shootings: Ukrainians describe Russian takeover of villages
Witnesses describe soldiers shooting people dead in the street and confiscating phones and laptops
I hope that ends up on a roadside the Russians are driving on.
I disagree. They wanted a powerful partner to help take on the West. They got a financially dependent albatross that the world hates, Europe no longer needs, and that is too broke to maintain the navy that could have helped with Taiwan.

Russia trying to make a tire warranty claim. China says lack of maintenance voids warranty.
