Between NATO and Russia?Dude, Sanya has a major PLAN naval base and air base. It's definitely getting nuked in a war.

With this invasion Putin has pulled a reverse-Nixon move. He has basically severed any possibility for Russia to become western friendly.
China merely needs to be careful that it doesn't push for excessive benefits and it should be ok
And if Putin is removed, the Communist Party will take power and thus be even closer to China.
I am actually a lot less worried now about Russia's relations with China in the Post-Putin era
Xi can send an email to Putin with this and let him buy whatever he wants.
Can even make him a deal. Buy 30 get 1 for free.

They have not gave reports of how many Ukrainians died because I am assuming that is a sensitive topic to not cause outrage but reporting their equipment being destroyed instead.What were the losses they were reporting?
4 km. Ok, cherepakha.
Did I miss anything about the DNR?
Russia's military is a joke. They might win but not before losing so many of their troops. To think they are getting cooked by slow moving toy planes.
Ukraine has been abandoned to their luck by the same powers who stirred all this mess, this is rising a lot of questions in Taiwan. Whatever twitter victory Ukrainians have that fact is the Russians are disintegrating that country day by day. How long the siege will last, two weeks? whatever victory Putin will have could send a signal to hardliners including those in China that the West will not respond.Predictable. Russia will most likely achieve a pyrrhic victory. One of the side effects of this poorer than expected performance is it will psychologically boost both the Washington elites and regular Americans to physically take on China on the Taiwan issue even more. They will falsely equal the Chinese military doctrine, training, equipment as copies of Russia and can't possibly win in a ambitious Taiwan campaign, and a chance to halt the "rebellion" against the current world order once and for all.
That’s very likely if Russia fails to meet its objectives soon.I was referring to the possibility of economic issues resulting in public discontent + potential quagmire in ukraine + cia money increases the risk of color revolution happening in Russia.
Its like this season is not very well suited for a war, but what do I know...

Iran has survived even toughen sanctions. Russia can still sell its gas and oil. It has a long border with China that should keep basic goods in stock. So it is not totally doom for Russia.Wonder what the economic instability will do to Putin.
