GDP speaks for itself. Russia is now the largest economy in Europe. The war is profitable.
Goods and GDP again speak for themselves, as you seem very pro western, you must be reading some sources that try to cope with reality by hiding behind falsehood or at best half truths.
Pro Hamas will claim resistance sanctions is destroying Israel. Pro Milei will say Argentina's economy is rapidly growing. Pro Cuban will say Cuba has a vibrant economy and society.
Everyone has a wishful narrative, but reality is undeniable (2024):
"why didn't Hitler just take Stalingrad not siege it"
"why did US just surrender Ho Chi Minh city"
Russia is fighting for a large territory with millions of people on it. These aren't battles that resolve in weeks.
Or alternatively a quick victory will bring about NATO joining the war against an unprepared and overstretched Russia, like what happened after US' quick "victory" over DPRK?
Or a quick victory will lead to Russia losing 1000s of planes like US did in Vietnam and then who will defend Denis Pushilin so he doesn't fall like Ngo Dinh Diem?
As Russia is gaining economically and winning the casualty trade heavily, it makes perfect sense to keep going as long as the status quo holds. And a war like this, could probably last 1-3 years more. It is the biggest conflict since Vietnam.
If you want to annex so much territory, there's no quick fixes.
You should seek him out then... For the lolz
do seek him out and wear that 1960's Mao style green cloth cap with the cute red star and make sure to play "East is Red" on your phone-good times assured.And later many staff in the stroke clinics that will treat him are.... Asian!!He can't escape us.
I'm not "very pro western." In fact, in real pro-western forums I am persecuted as a communist. lol.
I'm just a realist. Russia's economy is doing well, but this new configuration has its limits. I just reported the concerns expressed by the President of the Russian Central Bank, Elvira Nabiulina, about the overheating of the economy that fuels inflation due to personnel shortages, because the armaments industries are pulling employees from civilian companies, generating labor shortages.
If this situation goes on too long, it will lead to very high interest rates for longer and delays in the import substitution and technological independence program.
Defeating Ukraine does not mean annexing the entire territory at once.
Just neutralize the military threat and hostile government and put a friendly regime in place to filter the population, so, in the future, Russia will be able to annex the territory if it is beneficial. Nothing very different from what Israel is doing with Syria, Palestine and Lebanon currently.
However, at the current rate the war is only heading towards a stalemate negotiated by Trump next year, which could cause a lot of headaches in the future with NATO rearming Ukraine in the next term of democrats in the white house.
Will it? Also regarding those "moderate rebels"?

There's actually way more than 4. Funny that you say you advocated the exact 4 that I recalled off the top of my head... In your post history, have you ever posting something even mildly similar to these 4 points?
Where are you getting this from? Russian GDP is growing while EU's is languishing. That's all-inclusive.
Well, it looks like they need more time, eh? They'll get it!
If you look at the cross-border trade shooting up since the Ukraine war, I'd say there's actually much more real progress than talk. As a matter of fact, the only talk we see in the West is how the Sino-Russian relationship is failing as the trade volume shoots up and they complain that China is providing lethal aid to Russia.
For the EU. The EU is hemorrhaging resources.
What part of Russian aviation would gain a boost from the end of the war? What do you expect to happen and why?
A quick victory would have been best (for Russia, not China) but that did not happen. Ukraine has a third the population of Russia, is filled with Soviet weapons and has NATO IV attached to its arm. A quick victory was too optimistic, as we saw.
1. What does "boycott alternatives" mean?
2. They further entangle and bleed themselves. Russia is of almost no use to China in the trade/tech war but the EU is America's critical ally. To have them cancel each other on those 2 efforts is a great deal for China and for the Sino-Russian alliance.
1. I have never heard you thinking like me.
2. You have shown nothing that this is unsustainable for Russia. It is unsustainable for the EU, though. So if we see an inflection point where Russia's economy goes into recession and the EU's economy recovers, then we can talk about the time limit.
It's not losing or going into stalemate; it's winning slowly.
You mean you get attacked on all the forums you go to? LOL Shocking! Maybe you need to focus more on what you say rather than why everyone is mean to you.
Maybe you should ask why forums around the world think your ideas are so stupid and unsupported by evidence (Uh, what good are Russian missiles if they don't use them? LOL) that they deserve disrespect, which intensifies as you further struggle to double down on them.
You are the second SDF concern troll to say this almost exact same thing. The last time, the other account called himself a wumao, which everyone laughed at, because Chinese people don't call ourselves wumao for speaking up for our own country, so good job on improving. And my recommendation to both are the same: pick a side. Don't be hated everywhere.
That's not being a realist; that's the opposite. That's called imagining things because no limits have been proven.
1. Cite it.
2. Is it the primary opinion in Russia or are there multiple competing opinions and options to prevent it, such as importing labor from China, which has significant youth unemployment?
Unfortunatley, it's a little different. The places that Israel annexed are known for being backwards and incompetent to the point where they attack each other when attacked by Israel, and Israel has American military support. Ukraine is actually a military stronghold from Soviet times backed by the support of over 30 modern countries. That Russia is gaining territory at all while fighting against this alliance is applaudable.
Who says Putin will accept any deal that is not in favor of Russia? He seems in no rush to stop fighting.

Mutual hatred of India can really bring guys together. From Pakistan and Bangladesh to even China and the USA, if only for a brief moment.
You're essentially saying that well, Russia still needs to manage their economy. That's a given as any country has to continously tweak their policy, but the war still powered them above any other European country.
???
Again more "take stalingrad instead of sieging it" analysis.
What do you think Russia is doing erasing millions of Ukrainians? The goal is to filter anyone that isn't openly resisting Kiev (by opposing Zelensky and the TCC) and therefore creating a culturally Russian/assimilated Ukrainian generation as the only people left on the land.
Russia is much further progressed along their plans than Israel, but the nature of the plans are fundamentally similar. Israel struggles finding enough firepower/bodies to man all the fronts, and as such has made very limited advances and kills.
It is apparently not possible to remake demographics in just a few months when people also fight back, or Israel would have taken Gaza already.
This is completely delusional, there's no indication from either side they want a ceasefire, not even the losing side. US is headed towards yet another conflict in the middle east that further bleeds them, not much else.
