> But Ukraine has revealed that Russia's military is a paper tiger Russia has lost the blitzkrieg but gained ground in Donbass through regular warfare. They are throwing USSR era resources into the battle and haven't even issued a general mobilisation order. When China is going to sell them computer chips, they will have the resources to build guided missiles and ICBMs. I'm afraid they are not quite the paper tiger that the Western press is painting them to be, nor the 'glorious' USSR. I hope this war would end up like Afghanistan for Russia, further weakening it and leading to yet another break up. But it might end up like Chechnya.
