[quote=Anonymous]Russia cannot sustain an occupation of vast swaths of Ukraine in the short or long term. Putin’s armies are brittle and depleted. It’s suffered staggering losses in terms of troops (mostly conscripts) and military equipment. Over 31,000 KIA. Over a thousand tanks destroyed. Hundreds of aircraft. The Russians don’t have air superiority. Their Black Sea fleet continues to suffer losses. And there is now a more sustained flow of weapon systems to Ukraine (no thanks to the Germans). Much of the industrial base of Ukraine is destroyed as is the port city of Mariupol, which no longer has strategic value because the Russians can’t rebuild it. The wat isn’t really winnable for either side. The question becomes how can some degree of a resolution be obtained given the scope of war crimes committed by the Putin regime and its reembrace of the gulag archipelago. [/quote]
