    I personally thing that, as things are now, they are clearly winning, and if nothing changes, theyll probably win. Russia gains territory every day. They now control almost 1/4 of Ukraine, with all of Kherson, half of Zaporizhya, half of Donetsk, almost all of Lugansk and 1/3 of Kharkov regions. And all of this despite unprecedented western weapons supplies to Ukraine (more than 60 BILLION dollars) and Russia using minimal resources (only 200k troops). In the economic war, the victory has been crushing. The ruble is at its highest in years, despite Russia being now the most sanctioned country in the world. While in Russia inflation is staying low, in the west its skyrocketing. In Russia supermarkets are stocked, in the US there isnt even milk. I think Russia is clearly winning, and i honestly expected its economy to suffer much more. I definetely agree with you on Taiwan tho, the US may start shit there too.

      The 200k number by the way is the total including the DPR and LPR militias. On Russia’s part it’s probably more like 100k. I also wonder how long it will be until we see Kherson and Zaporozhie regions form their own militias to start defending their own borders and free up a few more Russian forces.

      This is even more important point that it is on the face value. It clearly shows the western global finance system for what it really is: a racket.
