You are welcome to believe whatever nonsense you want to believe. The point remains, PRC decides whats to be done with the island of Taiwan. And US interference will only lead to annihilation of US. As a citizen of the 85% of the world's population who have not sanctioned Russia, we are firmly supportive.
If my memory serves me right (and it rarely fails), you are someone whom I have up-voted countless number of times with my old account and occasionally using this one. I am pretty sure you are not an idiot (like many of the top commenters in this forum) who believes that "Ukraine is winning" or "Russia is doing badly in this war" because of ideological reasons, so I will give you the benefit of the doubt that you are misinformed.
I think if you live in reality it’s pretty undeniable that Russia is doing badly in this war.
Russias man power has been so degraded they had to resort to recruiting people from prisons and forced conscription of Ukrainians in Luhansk and Donbas.
Russias heavy armour has been destroyed so badly that we are seeing T62s rolled out to the front lines. These T62s are so old they don’t even use the 3 man setup that all more modern Russian takes do because they don’t have a autoloader.
Russia is also incapable of protecting territory it has captured. The occupied territories of Ukraine regularly have car bombs and ammo depots explode, Crimea even has Russian air bases spontaneously exploding so much all Russian tourists fled back to Russia.
The West really needs to work on it’s education system, if this is the level of critical analysis and thought you see in a forum which claims to be above average intelligence.

This really isn’t an answer to any of my points, it would be great if you could respond to the substance of the message instead of attempting to attack the person who sent it.
But if you want to think that being into month 6 of a 3 day war is going great I guess that’s up to you.
Any source I give will be just dismissed as Russian propaganda without evidence; or without consideration of the history, context, how accurate they have been in the past, etc. You only want to read or listen to anyone who screams "Russia bad" or "China bad".
The author of that article is at best very unreliable and at worst just straight up Russian propaganda here is a retort to pretty much everything he has said.
It’s also interesting that article as far as I can see does not at all cover the current wars losses, all it seems to do is repeat a bunch of Russian propaganda.
It’s always funny to see Russia trying to involve NATO countries in this war in there propaganda, because it’s okay to lose to NATo where as it’s kinda pathetic for Russia to lose to Ukraine.
Well thanks for enlightening me. From now on I will only trust NYT, WSJ, Washington Post, Guardian and BBC - they are the only truthful and accurate sources in the world today.

Well they are all more truthful then the Russian media who believes that Ukraine has genetically modified super soldiers and black magic battalions.
To be fair it doesn’t matter because your source doesn’t even cover anything I said it just tries very hard to justify the genocide of Ukrainians.
I was talking about the Russian armed forces performance in the war not about if it was justified or not(which it isn’t).

As I said, the education system in the West really needs a revamp. I just gave one example and already knew that you are going to post that one link as a retort (which does not provide any counter arguments to the points made by Jacques Baud at all). Hope your heroes from Azov were "evacuated" safely, as reported by the Western press. Honestly, I find it hard to believe that people can trust the Western press after the absolute nonsense they have reported so far and continue doing.
I don’t know why you keep hanging on about the education system.
Your article didn’t address any of the points I made all it tries to do is justify the genocide of Ukrainians.
> Hope your heroes from Azov were "evacuated" safely,
I’d feel safer as a azov member then as a propagandist in Moscow right now.
> I find it hard to believe that people can trust the Western press after the absolute nonsense they have reported so far and continue doing.
I mean your telling me the press that said
“Russia will not invade Ukraine” the day before it happened
“Ukraine using black magic battalions”
“Ukraine using genetically modified super soldiers”.
Tells the truth?.
I don’t understand how you can think that a country that held a area (Crimea) for years and then started another war and has had 4-5 explosions losing half their Black Sea fleet aircraft is “winning”.
Is losing 1000 tanks and having to roll out T62s “winning”;
Is using soviet anti aircraft carrier missiles against malls “winning”.
Is having oil refineries and ammo depots hit in Russia proper “winning”.
Is having 20,000 troops caught in Kherson with no easy way to leave or resupply “winning”.
The situation is so dire in Crimea that there was a traffic jam of people trying to leave.
