The thing with Italy is, that the most powerful party of the right wing coalition, led by the lady, which name I do not remember is, that she, despite being close to neonazi, was always vocal, that the Ukraine will get the same support from Italy as under Draghi. Of course Berlusconi and Salvini will try to force the change of her mind, but that’s what only time will tell. And Italy being Italy, we might see another elections in few months…

Germany might be pretty slow in many cases, but they are reimbursing the ex-warsaw pact armory for all the arms, which they deliver to Ukraine. Example being, 30 pieces of ex-soviet equipment from Slovakia, for exchange with 15 Leopards. If Germany would not reimburse Slovakia with this deal, we would not be able to donate such a big amount of vehicles to Ukraine.

But the sanctions are working. It is not something, which starts to work over night. Their banking sector has started to collapse. And their own blackmail by gas shortages has backfired tremendously. This will be colder winter, than usual for EU, but they have lost 70% of their exports, and all the revenue connected to it.

Lets’s do math, Russia invaded Ukraine with approx 250k soldiers, with the best equipment they had, and with the best elite forces, which they had. 55k of them are dead, that means another 100-150k injured/deserted/surrendered/MIA. Their best equipment is either destroyed or captured by Ukrainians. Another approx 50k arrived to frontlines as “trained volunteers” and they still lost more land than they had captured since the fall of Lysychansk, and they are losing more every day. In whose brilliant mind sparkled an idea, that 300k lousy trained and badly equipped “reservists” can still turn the current tide of the war? Putin just sent another 50k-100k of their own people to die, because Ukraine will not stop. And even before the mobilisation, he already angered almost all of his allies, who feels how weak Russia is. If these 300k will not make any more difference on the battlefield, the probability of Russia ending up torn to pieces, just skyrocketed. And I bet, China is currently starting to do calculations, how to get back all the land, they’ve lost after Boxer Rebellion.

That is true for ethnic Russians. for the minorities, the only reason they go to war, are money, not love for Putin... And that is the reason, why they are amongst the heaviest casualties. The last article is about ethic minorities wanting to get out from under Russian colonial boot, also due to the fact, that they are treated the worst at home and at battlefield...

And I bet, with winter at the doors only indigenous people from Siberia and beyond will be partially mobilized, and ethnic Russians will be cheering their genocide from their comfy sofas at home...
