You know what's not gonna age well? All the crap you post, hundreds of anecdotal garbage tweets that'd make people think that Russians were getting beaten so bad, Kiev might as well reverse-invade Moscow. But all the while, Russia still has far more in the tank, more to bring to the fight, and every day, Russians advance and Ukranians fade. The biggest delight to watching you short-sightedly paint yourself into a corner is savoring the moment when you must come to terms with the headline, "Kiev has Fallen."

Oh but I never claimed that the Ukrainians will win. But they are making it as costly as possible for the Russians. I merely think they have a small chance to win militarily. Politically the Russians have already lost and soon they'll lose economically too.

Russians soldiers not allowed to take phone and to communicate with the external world.

This was a lesson learned from the events of 2014. It's a good move by the Russians, tbh.

Absolutely.

We disagree on many, many things, but on this we are in complete concurrance.

do you guys hate the russians that much from stopping the FSA getting financed by you guys? if it was costly they would resort to thermobaric making the operation faster.

Ok, I guess little people are happy with little things. That's pretty much the only way they can cope at this point.

Russia will suffer short-medium term losses, but it is within their calculation and their preparation for sanctions. Remember, the defeats of large nations are all temporary as are the victories of small nations. Russia is too big, and too rich in resources for sanctions to be lasting and meaningful. All those who threw a tantrum at Russia now will need to find a way to come back to Russia and return to business as normal, but Russia will keep Ukraine.

The same mechanism how Chinese Nationalists (ROC) got kicked out of UNSC permanent membership and UN all together, a general assembly vote by 2/3 of all members states.

In order to evict Russia from UNSC permanent membership, then a general assembly vote among 2/3 of all members states to agree that Russia is not the legitimate heir to Soviet Union (like KMT is not legitimate heir of Republic of China) thus must forfeit it's permanent seat and seat closed because Soviet Union doesn't exist anymore. This is legit argument, but whether it can get 2/3 general assembly support, I am not sure. Given the long stalled UNSC reform process, India, Japan, Germany, Brazil, Egypt, or South Africa, could replaced the Soviet/Russia seat. Asia and Africa needs representation.

ROC's seat in UN and the permanent membership in UNSC were succeeded by PRC. Similarly Russia inherited from USSR the permanenut membership in UNSC.

To kick Russia out of UNSC it would be a fundamentally different matter.
