@Shlomo @TrevorGoodchild @Wolffkran putin the libtard really did want it to end fast. it took them four months to get into posture, in case the deployment of SMO failed(which it did) and nato took the chance to deploy into ukraine and create russia's nightmare scenerio.

they cant keep it up for long, so alot of their foreign policy back then were focused on containing the conflict. france and turkey playing telephone.

once the azov retards dug in, and bucha happened, their policy shifted. pregozhin screaming about shells isnt a joke, RU military has alot of rot. took the chance to trim the fat i suppose.

as for a russian invasion into central europe. its not likely. there is nothing for russia to gain.

access to market? no money
access to resource? lmao
access to labour? 20 different languages mixed with refugees

if it comes to a slugging match, they rather nuke the place then invade.
