I read some times ago that russia can’t go much further than mid 2025, and with what’s happening it seems like if they do, it’s a dead mans last jump of sort if they try to hang in there a whole more year.

Their economy is overheating and manpower for the war effort is drawn directly from the motor of the economy as they are already close to full employment. The state of their army also seems to be closer to exhaustion with less tanks, infantry vehicles and less trained soldiers. I’d love learning more about it all.

I hope they cruch and crumble faster ofc.
