Russia and Ukraine

[Leonardo17]

This is really good news (more than most people realize :

And  again some numbers:
 
Greece has 1250 Battle Tanks.

Turkey Has 3000.

Germany in WWII had 3200 battle tanks.

Russia has lost about 2000 battle tanks / 1200 of these were directly destroyed by Ukrainian armed forces.

The thing you have to remember about China is that they want Russia as a vassal not a partner, and the best way to do that is string Putain on long enough to keep weakening Russia in Ukraine enough that he has to come cap in hand to Xi, who will then dictate terms.

India's interests are all about protecting their borders from China.  Up until recently Modi believed the bullshit that Russia was peddling about its wunderwaffen.  Given how piss poor Russian materiel has been in Ukraine and how missing Russia's latest weapons have been, even Modi must realise he's been had.  And if Russia is a waste of space for India, who does that leave?

As far as I know, New Russian weapons like the Armada Tank, S-400’g, Su-57’s were not junk weapons at all. But they required western components and cannot be produced without them.
 
Even before the sanctions they were produced in small numbers because they are enormously expensive. And this is why I am very sceptic about the new “locally produced” fighter planes of the President For 45 More Days.
 
And I am not a great fan of Russia either. But I see some serious lack of balance in the world when Russia is making huge concessions to Iran and assumes a vassal ship role toward China. This changes the whole dynamics of central Asia and gives too much power to China which is an authoritarian state and totally unpredictable for instance on the issue of Taiwan.
