^^^^ the spinning on Biden losing another war has begun.

I guess it’s over.[/quote]

Russia's invasion of Ukraine has been a huge win for the US. We've spent about 5 percent of the defense budget on this. And most of that was transferring older weapons systems that were due to be decommissioned regardless. In return, we've seen Russia, our most significant adversary over the past 80 years, get absolutely wrecked on the battlefield. The've lost well more than half of their military capabilities. They've literally lost thousands of tanks. Their casualty count is approximating 300,000. Their economy will be shattered for years. A brain drain has already happened. Russia is completely crippled. There is no coming back from this. Meanwhile, NATO is stronger than ever. Even Finland and Sweden joined. There is no risk at all of Russia invading any other European country. And that is no small thing. Russia's miscalculation has been a gift to the West. Biden has handled this really well.[/quote]

+1 people are trying to spin but it can only be seen as a huge win for the US. The cost has been minimal to the US treasury and the degradation to Russia has been significant. It will take decades for Russia to rebuild their military, and based on economics and demographics they likely will never fully rebuild.

This east has been devastating to Ukraine. But for the US this has been a huge victory, and if we continue assisting Ukraine it could be an even bigger victory. Let’s eliminate all of the old Soviet surplus armor (which was huge and built over 70 years) and ammunition![/quote]

why would $113 billion (CNN) be considered “minimal”? LMAO

Russia has reallocated nearly a third of its commercial economy toward arms production.

Russian manufacturers are making up to 7 times as much ammunition as Western arms makers, Estonian defense official says (Reuters).
