>>18312474>Cause they are stupid and think they can win if they just buy some more timeThat is the correct strategy because time is against the side that has no resources, no production capacity and has to rely on foreign actors for all of its budgetary and equipment needs and fuels and ammunition.
Russia has all of the resources of the world, and if you haven't noticed lately, their dysfunctional peace-time army which got killed in 2022 is starting to show signs of being a little more competent.
Why do you need Crimea and the Donbas anyway? There are no people there who want to be under a Kiev government, and you gave away Crimea in 2014 without firing a single shot in anger...
It's like if Russia sold Alaska to the US and now they demanded its return, or else.
