    So? That does little help as Russia is fully self sustainable and even if they had 100% blockage, they would manage 1000 years. Unlike north Korea etc. They sell the fertilizers, titanium, all alloys, diamonds, gold, silver, cromium and four forms of energy despite having their own usage filled. They are not dependant on anything but perhaps consumer goods. They have localized their arms production since 2014 and they succeeded. They hoarded chips and such for next 100 years. Only way for Nato countries to avoid total crash is to sooner or later go crawling and ask for forgiveness. But it won't look good while our leaders have far too big egoes, especially in EU. USA can do somewhat by their own without Russia but if you take China on the picture USA is fucked. Only way they could manage without China would be buying through proxies, which would come very expensive and could end if China wanted to cut em off and stop selling to those proxies. USA and EU need BRICKS more than BRICKS need USA and EU.

    @@ark-mark1 Russia isnt really as strong economically as you think they are, Yes russia is very rich in natural resources however russia fails at exploiting its resources to its fullest potential like china does, and thats why russias economy is tiny compared to china.. What do i mean by this, what i mean is that russia exports its materials in raw forms and rarely does russia have a complete supply chain, which is why russia tends to rely so heavily on imports despite having the resources it needs to create such products. A great example of this is microchips. Russia took a very long time to get into the microchip country and currently they are about 20 years behind the current technology. It will take them even longer to catch up due to sanctions and there being a huge monopoly on the specific mirrors needed to make such powerful microchips. USA and EU need BRICKS more than BRICKS need USA and EU. Thats not how economies work there lad... Supply and Demand... Neither side could honestly survive without the other thats how global economies work. Its very clear by that one sentence that you have your own bias towards russia. If you are honestly trying to prove to people how smart you are when you come out with a comment like that then your not proving anything but how stupid you are when you cant understand that fact that an economy needs a customer and a manufacterer. A manufacturer cant sell product without a customer and a customer cannot buy anything with a manufactuter... this is economics at its literal simplest form and if you think one could survive without the other then your a little retarded... no offence.

    You forgot one more reason Russia lost. They pushed the EU to give up their addiction to Russian methane. This change is probably permanent, thanks to European experience of Russian leverage of this trade, and slow changes toward 'green' energy. Russia can sell its oil anywhere, but the methane was constructed just for EU export. That entire industry is gone now.

So not only is there an additional hit caused by the devaluation of the ruble - Russia can only spend that money in China and India. And India's exports to Russia are - not much.

    Great video, but it really downplayed the significance of Russia’s population loss. Russia has been suffering from a demographic crisis so bad that it’s population has already begun to decrease during peacetime. Their population will not recover from this war unless they start having far more children. They have many old people, and few able-bodied, young workers to support them, which is straining their economy. The soldiers dying on the frontline are the same able-bodied laborers that Russia desperately needs. Hundreds of thousands of also fled Russia to avoid the draft and keep their jobs. Unfortunately, Ukraine is suffering the same problem but worse. This war will cripple both Russia and Ukraine for decades to come.

    @@muratbayraktar5035 Russia's population is not crippled with regards to the war only, it still will win based on pure numbers alone. However my dear Russia's population was declining for a long time not just because of a lack of young able bodied people who have the tools necessary to have children but also because they were not having sufficiently enough children BEFORE the war during PEACETIME when things are calm and nice, they certainly are not going to drastically increase their birthdates during or immediately after the war. And most certain all the killed or wounded will not be ideally suited to starting families which means that potentially hundreds of thousands potential families have been lost. With regards to India, yes it is also winning but I wouldn't call them among the BIGGEST winners of the war, more or less they have just adjusted to the war reality and avoided the worst effects. This is because the US tends to send it's older stockpiles of equipment and readily gains newer weapons. China gains alot from this war, they gain cheap oil, they gain an easy noncompetitive market, they gain influence over central Asia but they also now will have to deal with the full attention of the US going forwards. Russia regardless of the outcome will not be able to exert nearly the same amount of influence or power after the war for many decades. This is the real meaning behind crippled, not in regards to Ukraine (which is in a worse state) but in regards to the wider West-Russian struggle. Gaining Ukraine at this cost is merely winning a battle and losing the war.

Also where in my original comment did you get the idea that Russias population wasn’t on a decline. So are all its neighbors except 3 with whom they have better relations and they have a lot of neighbors. Russia will exert power just fine when Ukraine eventually caves in by the end of 2020s. They will have the biggest baddest and most experienced land force on earth. They will be good until they sort their population crisis out.

    Under what circumstances does anyone see things going better for Russia in this "special operation?" When does Putin call up his secret reserves of well-armed, well-trained soldiers? Ukraine, whether or not they are actually doing well, are still making some gains, including their foothold across the Dnipro River, which Russia proved unable to stop, in spite of originally holding the east bank. And Ukraine, short of suing for peace, has few options except to keep fighting, and as Russia loses armor and weapons systems, Ukraine is gaining new ones, albeit at a trickle over time. I see that as a no-win military situation for Russia, as the Ukrainians have nowhere to go, while the Russians can only beat their heads against an entrenched defending force for so long. If the conflict is to end soon, it'll end with Russia holding some gains under a cease-fire, their best-case under the circumstances. If it goes on longer, war fatigue will grow in Russia and Putin's power and prestige will erode along with his armed forces. Russian military capability will be exhausted, resulting in further gains by Ukraine, though their ability to retake as much land as Russia currently holds is questionable, boots on the ground being critical to holding territory. The wild card is if something happens to either Putin or Zelensky; Putin's successor will be under no requirement to continue this war, while a new Ukrainian President probably won't throw in the towel, especially if at least some Western support persists. ='[.]'=

    Hmm... You're repeating the same blurb that's been used to justify officially supporting Kiev for the last almost 2 years. It hasn't worked out. It's been a miserable and expensive failure. By the way: You got it wrong. Russia's the one that's entrenched. On about 20% of Ukraine. And Kiev's been doing the attacking. And Kiev's been unable to push it off despite trying for years, hundreds of thousands dead and hundreds of billions in Western financial and logistical support. Kiev is losing this war badly. And continuing to support it is just a waste of time and throwing money down the toilet. It does make lying, losing thieves like Zelensky and his crew of incompetent crooks richer though. I suppose every dark cloud has a silver lining huh?

    Actually Russia’s export situation is much worse then video says. Oil wise Russia makes significantly less profit selling to India/China due to distance involved and infrastructure in place being EU trade oriented. Situation is even worse for natural gas exports. Russia does not have technical expertise to maintain existing fields without Western firms assistance so production will start to decline. Finally any infrastructure to sell greater volume to China especially gas will take years to set up. China and the world at large is reducing demand for hydrocarbons so Russia’s window to sell for a large volume and profit is rapidly closing.

    Russia does not have technical expertise not because it can't, but because Russian capitalists decided that it was cheaper to hire these experts. That approach was criticized internally in Russia. In this case sanctions is a gift, with the absence of the Western firms the production will of course decrease but temporarily only. And the decline in the demand for raw hydrocarbons will increase the amount of processed ones, which again is better. So you simply end up buying things like plastics instead of raw oil and gas.

    I think this analysis misses the moral and ideological aspects which are crucial for russia at this point in time, they're in the process of nation building. The actual Russian nationality is still being developed, since they kinda skipped the whole 'spring of nations' and went for the marxist new social (soviet) man project, so any challenge to their blatantly false historiography (any nationalistic historiography is false, Ukrainian being far from ideal, but there are bad apples and then there are ones chewed and digested by a horse) which always serves as the main nation building and state legitimising tool, must be quelled, and rally around the flag is also a great tool to form a new identity. And while they're doing what they're doing to Ukraine (and their satellite/close "brotherly" nations in different ways), they're also bleeding out particularly resistant minority groups and generally people from north and east of the country, which "coincidentally" are the most likely to grumble due to their regions being essentially exploited for resources while profits are redirected towards a few cities and surrounding areas. I'm not using "exploited" lightly, people in these regions will say stuff like "they built 5km of road in 1996 it's so great" because they have no other things to explain why they keep voting the way they do. They live on 16-30k ruble wages, often in rotting wooden barracks which were built as temporary housing solution by Stalin's government. Etc. Not only that, they also make Ukraine and Central Europe more dependent on Russian gas, 2010 gazprom-yuschenko framing scandal and 2014 donbass invasion cannot be a coincidence, given the time in which new, rich deposits were found and which companies said president's office decided to hire to build the infrastructure (tip: it wasn't gazprom)

    what is Russia's entire objective here though? my theory was that they most likely wanted a quick war to overwhelm Ukraine and quickly replace their government with a pro Russian government like before, I highly doubt Russia wanted this whole attritional war going on their border, I doubt any country would want that as it is expensive on both sides no matter how you look at it and even if they take the entirety of Ukraine do they plan on holding it forever? do they expect Ukraine to not wanna rebel or do something about it in the future and just basically sit there as their lap dog, I'm not sure if Putin put enough thought into what the war was suppose to achieve in the long term because as of right now it kinda swung a big portion of the world to look at Russia as a villain and it even pushed Finland into nato which would completely rule it out as a potential target in the future unless Russia wants to fight the entire nato alliance. It kinda just looked pointless to me and I think everyone realistically didn't expect Ukraine to win in the long term since Russia can easily replace their soldiers whereas Ukraine's population cannot allow it for long, anyways but they're still hanging on so I don't know how anyone is surprised that Russia is taking gains in the war.

    While the strategic goals of Russia, being to keep NATO off their doorstep, makes a lot of sense, Putin went about it in the dumbest possible way. Anyone with an ounce of sense and a map could have told you what the result of Russian invasion of Ukraine would be, even if Russia won outright in February 2022. Finland and Sweden, famously neutral nations, would immediately petition to join NATO out of fear that they'll be next. The Baltic States and Poland would demand that NATO and the EU forward deploy heavy armored forces in their territories to deter Russian aggression. As it was said, so it was done. Russia has lost this war. They have gained new NATO neighbors, this time within a day's drive of St. Petersburg. They have driven the divided NATO alliance and EU even closer together. And they have all but guaranteed Ukraine's membership in NATO when the war ends. All at the cost more than 300,000 soldiers killed or wounded and the loss of nearly 12,300 combat vehicles, aircraft, and ships. Even if the territorial situation remains the same and a truce in place is declared, Russia has been shattered. It has lost its best troops, its best equipment, and its ability to export arms to sustain its economy. If Russia ever does recover from this war, it will be after decades and as a third rate power on the world stage.

    I am willing to concede that Russia might try to do what you say. BUT, and it really is a huge but, Ukraine will not permit Russia to retain Crimea. It cannot. Crimea has both financial and strategic importance. To Putin it also has a quasi mythical importance somehow tied in to his dream of resurrecting imperial Russia. On a less elevated note, it dominates the Black Sea and regulates entry to the Sea of Azov. That is two ports, of immense importance to Ukraine's export of grain etc. Odesa is a third port, of similar importance. Ukraine can definitely retake Crimea. The logistics are a nightmare for Russia. Cut the Kerch bridge. Close the train tracks. Blockade the two roads. Voila, fully embargoed Crimea with troops deployed there unable to be reapplied. The Black Sea fleet has already had redeploy to a Russian port. I am not sure how the return of the occupied oblasts will be negotiated; militarily or diplomatically or some other, unknown, way. But I am utterly convinced Crimea is non-negotiable for Ukrainians. Time will tell. Unfortunately, Ukrainians will keep dying until they are victorious.

    @@fastdeliveryl708 It isn't really a war of exhaustion. It is impossible for Ukraine to stop. What you have is a generation of men, and women, who have heard stories of what life was like in the USSR. Their grandparents lived it. Even some of their parents might have experienced some of it. Now they have children, and they absolutely don't want their children to grow up as inferior citizens of the Russian empire. Ukraine has only one viable option; to fight. This fallacy about the west 'tiring' makes no logical sense. Over 50 countries are supposed to agree to tell Ukraine it stands alone? Definitely not going to happen. Even if a country has to focus on some internal problem, the rest will still be there. Even if everyone else stopped the Balkan countries would still be there. And if even the Baltic countries stopped the EU would still be there. Russia is not going to be permitted to win, because Europe simply will not tolerate another dictator with delusions of building a 1000 year Reich, even if that Reich is labelled an Empire. The 21st century is not going to be a rerun of the 20th. Europe learned that appeasement doesn't work, ever. It isn't making that mistake this time. Russia is going to lose. Even the use of a tactical nuke won't help Russia win. This war was lost the second Zelenskyy's "I don't need a ride. I need ammunition." went viral. At that instant Russia's loss became inevitable. Even had Russia managed to flood Ukraine with troops the war would not have ended. It would just have become Ukrainian guerrilla resistance. I am aware that Russia has an immense number of men it is willing to see sacrificed. I am also aware that it is beginning to ramp up war time production. Against this Ukraine is finally beginning to receive the materiel it needs for air superiority. How quickly Ukraine establishes this will be an indicator of how long the war can last.

    Binky's made a lot of good points. One of the most prominent is that Russia's invasion of Ukraine has alienated an entire population with whom it had close ties on several levels. I personally witnessed this transformation and it's not even a close call. Ukrainians who were once ambivalent toward Russia now hate Russia and Russians. Truly tragic. On this note, Russia's misguided effort at imperialism is outweighed only by the Kremlin's collective stupidity. As the Soviet Union fell apart, so now too will Russia - a nation with neither credibility nor military merit. For those who may disagree, consider that Russia has to crawl to Iran and North Korea for military support because it's military is getting hammered by Ukraine, that is when it's not busy stumbling over the minefields it lays... Being led, of course, by a Russian general.

    Oh cmon. You should know better than to abandon a great video creator because one of his "Has this happened??" "Will this happen??" type videos doesn't match your own view. I think you, like most people in the west, are experiencing the effects of war weariness, which is why support for Ukraine is slowly tapering off. But I think you are also perhaps swinging too much in the opposite direction and seeing Russia as a bigger threat (To NATO) than it is. The war is currently going pretty much as I thought it would honestly. Russia is known for blundering in the beginning and then throwing massive amounts of bodies and machinery at the problem to solve it. History is full of examples and this time follows the trend pretty well. However, if you feel that Russia is becoming a massive threat to the west or something then I'd remind you that they had very significant interest in these territories and theor geopolitical value and caught Ukraine in a moment of weakness. The fact that they only picked a fight when they thought they could win in 3 months tells you that they aren't going to make the mistake of invading a NATO country. There just isn't a tangible benefit in doing so considering the cost. And of course I agree about doing more to help Ukraine. I live in a country that borders Russia so I know from history what they are capable of... At least I can say my country is doing a pretty good job of aiding Ukraine and also bolstering our own defenses.
