>>17421655>realistically how long can they keep it upSome people suggested 500,000 dead Russians might be the breaking point. Russia will keep fighting until they literally cannot. We very well might be heading towards a total military collapse, if not a state collapse. Good riddance.
Russia right now is not winning, but the tragectory is Ukraine not winning. The troops keep Ukraine pinned down and bogged down. If this keeps up eventually Ukraine will be exhausted since they can't win a war of attrition - they'd have to inflict 8 to 1 casualties to win just on numbers. Then there'd be a humiliating cease fire and the Donbass would be an endless Russian occupied territory to prevent Ukraine from joining NATO.
