If Russian state revenues are further weakened NOW (e.g. by effective strikes against refineries) and if Russian supply routes are attacked NOW (if Ukraine receives all the weapons it needs for this), then this will massively accelerate the collapse of Russia, shorten the war and lead more quickly to a real peace.
❗️Putin is a loser:
▪️Does he have air superiority over Ukraine?
No. On the contrary, the extent of his superiority is diminishing.
▪️Is Ukraine "demilitarized"?
No. On the contrary.
▪️ Has he prevented the expansion of NATO?
No. On the contrary.
▪️Has he restored Russia's imperial greatness?
No. On the contrary, he is now just "the little partner of big China".
❗️Putin is a poker player who can only bluff:
He can only threaten to escalate the war, but he cannot carry out this threat because Russia is far too inferior to NATO.
