> not really. Russia didn't invaded Ukraine until 2014 because it had absolutely no enough power to do it Your data is outdated for about 90 days, on some things for more than 15 years. - Before February 24, we also think, that Russian army is second in world, etc. But now we have 100% reliable info from real war, that Russian army is in reality soviet army from 1960th, they have only few dozens prototypes of modern weapons, so this is not making much difference. And Russian army is extremely incompetent and demotivated. In reality, they accounted to behavior seen in Ukraine in early 1990s and partially in 2014 - all Ukrainian military just surrendered that time, because was order to surrender from president and top officers. Also in Ukraine exists very strong collaboration forces - daughter of Russian Orthodox church and communists party (after 2014 their deputies created few new parties, rebranded to not associate with prohibited communists symbols). For Russia circumstances was excellent in 1990th, but after 2004 each day they become weaker and Ukrainians become stronger. For example, before 2005, communists every year conduct processions in Kiev, but on 2005 they said, they have too few people (for street fights vs nationalists). For Ukrainian army, after 2014 it becomes extremely motivated and incorporate best modern practices - use drones for intelligence, and use starlink for communications, and use tablets with special software for control - for organization level this much superior to NATO and is like US army in late 1990th. Only problem still unresolved, that Russia have ~5 times more quantities of armored vehicles, artillery and air units; and Russia have large number of military ships and even submarines, but Ukraine have nearly zero size navy. Georgia is tiny country, approx TEN TIMES smaller than Ukraine, so it is miracle they have even moderate success in resistance.
