Russia has one of the most powerful militaries in the world.
Well, that's what I used to think, yes. But after a month of war in #
Ukraine I changed my mind. Russia may have a lot of men and equipment, they're not powerful. All those men, tanks, missiles and planes don't mean anything if they're being sent willy-nilly into hostile territory without proper preparation, coordination or leadership.
I think that if this war lasts another month, Russian goals may shift to "getting out of there as quickly as possible". I bet Putin's main goal has already shifted to something like "shit, how do I get out of this mess without losing every last bit of credibility?"
Well Vlad, I think it's too late for that: the world has spat you out like a gnat (to quote your own words). You've dropped your mask, played the military power card, but failed miserably at it.
