Sadly, it won't stop until the last Ukrainian is sent to the front lines to die.
The West Regime continues to use smaller countries as pawns to further our geopolitical ambitions and to enrich our oligarchs.
Good thing this is not true.
You're probably referring to ruzzia having three times more people than Ukraine. There are several factors why this is not as important as it might seem.
First is that ruzzia is attacking and the attacking side usually sustains 1:3 loss ratio. Second is that their approach was always to disregard their own, so the ratio is at least 1:5, likely even worse. And third, is that despite they have 140 million people, after you deduct women, children, old and sick, and ruzzian tooth to tail ratio of 1:1, you end up with the maximum army of 5 million.
And they already lost 20%. And some of those 20% were actually trained. And men that are fit for army are also for for work.
Which all basically means that if the sanctions pressure is kept, if Ukraine has enough ammunition (and they claim 30% is already made domestically) and as long as Ukraine keeps the loss ratio in its favour, ruzzia will simply implode.
Somebody calculated that at the current "advance" speed, ruzzia will need 140 years to occupy Ukraine. If Ukraine keeps doing what it's doing, it needs maybe two.
It's not going to be nice two years, but with a little support, Ukraine is winning and will win.
Interesting take.
Thanks for taking the time to explain your thought process and how you arrived at certain conclusions!
