It makes a huge difference! As long as you haven't taken control of the capital city, as long as you haven't toppled the government, the country still stands. Urban fighting is a world of its own, because you have to meander through a maze of unfamiliar territory at the risk of getting ambushed by guerrilla forces.
Russia has been sending volleys of missiles, and still the city stands. Another option would be to nuke it, which would automatically lead to a 3rd World War. Kiev can't hold out indefinitely, but the Russian forces can't either, adding the fact that the morale of the Russian soldiers are at the lowest with many refusing to fight. Russia is sending a wave of reinforcement, the rest of Europe are also sending Ukraine a sizable amount of support.

At the end of the day Russia might capture Ukraine, but their Armed Forces would be dealt a devastating blow.

Nuke ke!

What are you going on about?
grin

Top Generals the world over say the War is lost!
It is just a matter of time and how badly the russians want it.

The city will be bombed to dust and nothing will hapen.

Only the concern of collateral damage makes it tricky for them.

Or what are the Ukranians going to do?
Shoot out artillery shells or missiles from the sky?

About re-inforcements, if the supply lines for troops and supplies is cut-off, what options do they have?

Ok o!

Russia has never been a world power.
How many countries are under Russian control to be called WORLD power?
Is it in terms of finance? Or diplomacy?

How Ukraine wan take finish off all these troops? Russia indeed has a large military,I foresee Ukraine giving up soon as a result of fatigue they are called world power for a reason.

Without the initial help of the UK and the US, Germany would have crushed the entire soviet union (Russia inclusive). The US supplied USSR over 400,000 trucks, ammunition, food, and medicine that helped the Russians turn the tide of war against Germany (when Germany was still fighting both the US and UK).

We are in a different era though where Nuclear Weapons is the game-changer. No country can survive a nuclear war and Russia is ready to go Nuclear, the only language the US and NATO understand.

You know your history. Plus operation Barbarossa failed cause of winter.

However, the Russian gave a good account of themselves sha

Even UK made some supplies too

400 000 trucks in the 1940s really

During a war? How did the trucks get there?
By email ?

Did the US have 400000 trucks for their own use?
What was the cost of one truck?

So true.
Only in the mind of Pootin minors is Russia rated as a strong nation.

Only minor sanctions the idiots Don they shake.
Their currency the rubble worth less than a cent now.

The stock market has been closed, panic buying and withdrawal in Russia is currently taking place and they claim they are super power.
Russia and China should flex muscle and place there on Sanctions let see.

UK military may collapse. Then there will be resistance and civil disobedience. Vietnamese did not give up for years. Talibans did not give up. Things will get messy.

Read up the reasons these wars failed in these regions you mentioned. None of these countries share border with America.
On the other hand, it doesn't cost much to transport hardware to Ukraine from Russia.

Vietnam weather took a toll on American soldiers. Ukraine and Russia share same weather.

Just forget it, this is a hardware warfare,

See how Yugoslavia was broken down to over ten countries after the dissolution with US interference, this is the ground work for break up Putin is preventing from happening since the US have choose Ukraine as a staging ground for such assault. As Yugoslavia big reach, its not bigger than Kamchatka, a tiny region that is not more than 3% of Russia's total landmass. Russia is a giant, its just too big, as in, its freaking huge with all kinds of resources buried underneath. If Russia falls, which of these countries criticising Putin will save his countries?

It's the western wet dream to divide it into multiple nations, divide and conquer as usual. You see how they supported the Chechen war of independence from Russia, but they won't support Biafra. Same with China, they supported the independence of Taiwan, Hong Kong, Tibet, Xinxiang, but not Catalonia in Spain. Putin is the right man for this game. He knows their ultimate plan. See Nigeria, all our resources are controlled by foreign corporations such as our oil for example, but to the Russians, everything is controlled by Russians. The west can't stand this, they need to control your destiny, Russia and China is the next big cow to slaughter.

Soviet union was destroyed with the help of the west giving birth to so many countries, it was a painful period in the psyche of the Russians, and they've said to themselves, never we will let that happen again. People are just rambling about Putin being a mad guy, but no one sees it from his angle, and the bigger tragic event he is trying to avoid. Most people by nature are emotional, that's why they suffer. I wonder why same emotions was not channeled when the US was on a bombing tour globally. Now they suddenly feel for the Ukrainians because western media have amplified the matter to make Ukraine a villain.

Looking at how Nigerian leaders are unintelligent, it is a positive for the West because if we had an intelligent and focused leader like Putin, I am pretty sure they would have supported the fight for Biafra. It is a huge reason I am indifferent about the conflict. I see no reason I should be concerned about two white ethnic groups are fighting between themselves.

The Kremlin mad man seems unperturbed about what the consequences of his actions will bring to his country Russia

One can only hope that Mad Vlad is not allowed to get anywhere near that nuclear button when it dawns on him that his delusions of grandeur have led his country's military down the very same road of humiliation, failure, and death that they took in Afghanistan.

Meanwhile, the Russian ruble trades at less than one US cent, which is one-fifth of the naira's exchange rate of 5.72 US cents to the naira. Starvation will soon ravage the Russian population, most of who do NOT support the megalomania of Mad Vlad Putin.

I am not indifferent about the conflict, in fact, you should care about it because it goes far deeper than just two white people fighting. It is about the struggle of a new world order, it is a geopolitical war, and the results of Putin's UN speech in Munich on February 10, 2017, about the end of a unilateral world, and an establishment of a multilateral one.

This is why China refuses to condemn Russia, also with India. They know what's up. It is also why all the western hammers (sanctions etc) are raining on Russia, to prevent it from happening. The bigger game at play is to displaced the US off it's unilateral status and weakened it power globally.
