Russia is, if look look at its land mass, more of an Asian country than a European one. The far western corner of Russia ( Moscow to the St Pete border ) is European culturally. The rest is Asian, Tartars, Kazachs, and its long under belly straddles the central asian Republics.

China needs a bread basket and a petro source for its growing economy.

They are about to OWN Russia and Putin is handing his nation over to them. Why ? Because he lost his job in his 30's and was forced to work part time as a Taxi driver....and ever since has been determined to get back the USSR

frying pan to FIRE in trying to prevent Nato for Ukraine

China passes that broken down 1950’s country about a decade ago. This just shows how far the Russians have fallen. The Russians use to supply the Chinese with arms…now they are begging the Chinese to give them arms, logistical support, ammo, etc The Russians are running out of missiles, drones, everything.

I think it is literally impossible for Ukraine or Russia to run out of 7.62 ammo (for AK-47).
They literally may have billions of rounds each.

I think it is more of a food issue; maybe drones. Putin has got to be annoyed at how bad his military actually is.

They are asking artillery shell, missiles, smart and dumb bombs, etc so yes they are running out of munitions

- except Russia officially adopted the AK-74 way back in, not coincidentally - 1974, nearly a half century ago.

The AK-74 uses ammunition which is NOT compatible with ammo for the venerable ‘47.

But they likely have billions of rounds - if not a trillion or more - saved up for the “new” AK-74, and its more modern variants chambered for 5.45x39mm Russian ammunition.

I do not know…the incompetence of the Russia should never be underestimated. They most likely have run out of 5.45.

Russians announced they will heavily attack all arms shipment. The window for sending in arms has closed or closing.

It’s an empty threat. The Russians have no capability to strike mobile targets in western Ukraine. They are out of PGMs and have no ground forces there.

Yes. Russia talks a lot. Watch what they DO.

Or, officials were told there were warehouses full of billions of rounds, but in fact the warehouses are empty and Pirozhkin embezzled the money for himself.

Sadly their medieval siege tactics will kill thousands of Ukrainian civilians.

It's sad they have such little manpower yet can still do so much damage.

Israeli satellite images show Russia has moved numerous heavy bombers to airfields near the Ukrainian border.

Looks like they plan to reduce Kyiv to rubble and ashes.

They have almost no precision guided munitions left after using them all up in Syria.

Russian “planning.”

Because Putin expected Ukraine to surrender in a few days, no effort was made to ramp up production of military supplies, parts, MREs, or anything else and they had less than a month’s supply for a lot of things they need.

Also, there's huge corruption in Russia because no one's policing the oligarchs. So for every $1000 of military spending, $900 of it ends up in someone's pocket and then they cook the books to make it look like they have more stuff than they actually do. And no one's brave enough to tell Putin what's going on.

Same thing happened during the decline of the Roman Empire. It's why totalitarian regimes always fail.

Can you imagine the case of blue-balls USAF F-15 and F-22 pilots must have knowing all those bombers are over there, ready to fly missions?

They are going for the Black Sea coast. A tweet just mentioned that it was probably now a plan all along with other cities as diversion tactics, to cut off Ukraine’s south East and take control of all Black Sea all the way to Dniester River.

No way that was the plan. That is the “out”. If they can pull it off.

Even American air power never won other than dropping nuclear weapons. Fallujah Proved that after it was empty and ruble.

I think Russians are going to have to go street to street at some point where they will take massive losses.

They basically had that when they annexed Crimea. That’s not what they’re going after now.

It's definitely an out. Remember all our dear friends here talking about a "land bridge". This would also give Russia all those sweet sweet natural gas deposits in the Black Sea.
