It's also weird how totally unnecessary all of this is. You could probably say that about most wars really, but this one is entirely pointless. Russia didn't have to invade at all. They can go home at any time and it'd all just stop. It'll be hard enough to deal with all the loss and damage that's been done already.
- grugagag 3y agoRussia’s image as superpower had been damaged. If Russia end the conflict Putin dies. He won’t let that happen
- autoexec 3y agoRussia’s image was trashed when they failed to take Ukraine in the first weeks of the invasion. Winning now (or months/years from now) isn't going to fix that. Even if they did win what would they get? Russia has no real need for Ukraine. I'd rather be known as a country who screwed up but knows when to quit than one who does something dumb and is too embarrassed by it to pull their head out of their own ass no matter what the cost.
- megous 3y agoUSSR was a superpower before it failed. Russia, not so much. Anyway, I noticed you're writing about the image of being so, so nevermind...
