Russia doesn’t need a victory, it needs a long running war. Because this war is bringing Russia shitloads of money.
Ah yes it’s making Russia so much money which is why their economy is in perfect condition and the ruble is worth more than ever!
I think they’re at least partially right, Russia’s strategy appears to be throw as many men at the problem to keep the front line stalemate going in the hopes the Western donations eventually dry up, then throw even more men at Ukraine until they can win. An obvious pyrrhic victory to most, but when did hundreds of thousands of deaths and a decimated economy ever trump expansionism for Putin and his cronies?
Ruble worth is irrelevant, especially since they don’t neeed to buy stuff from EU and US anymore. But Russian economy is in a healthy state.
What sources do you have to back that up?
IMF says Russian economy will grow by 1.5% in 2023 - https://www.imf.org/en/Countries/RUS
For comparison, their projection for UK is 0.4%, US 1.8%, and Germany should drop by 0.3%. Yeah, sorry, Russia is doing fine.
Is it a good enough source for you? Do you need more sources? I can give more.
Is that why they now talk about war with NATO? So they get even richer?
No, they just talk bullshit to score points with Russian sheeple. But that doesn’t mean Putin’s regime needs a victory.
I thought they didn’t want a victory. More war, more profits!
They don’t want a victory indeed. As I said already.
So the Kyiv offensive was a feint after all. Genius!
