Why hasn't Russia been able to advance? The frontline (as depicted in this 2 year old image) is still in the exact same place.
>>535779317Why hasn't Ukraine been able to take back land that was stolen from them?
>>535779317Long war. They are holding this position to exhaust the enemy (not Ukraine).
>>535779317> we are losing slowly> this means we are winning do nafo troons really?
russia is winning, just very very slowly... ukraine will run out of soldiers eventually.
>>535779317Btw
>>535779636Bricsilian..lol
>>535779317The peacenovs have been wrong on just about everything.
>>535779758>ukraine will run out of soldiers eventuallymaybe in 15 years at current rates
>>535779489rajeesh, this thread isn't about you or your extended family>>535779495because for Ukraine that would be a much greater challenge. Russian army is at least 3-5 times bigger and backed by an economy that's easily 10 times the size of the of the Ukrainian one. However despite the sizeable difference, Russia has hardly progressed, so much so that the 2 year old image I posted in the OP doesn't even need to be updated.>>535779636I don't talk to monkeys. Go away from my thread, macaco.>>535779508>>535779758So russia can't progress unless it exhausts Ukraine first? What happens if Ukraine gets exhausted and EU/NATO troops theoretically move in? Does Russia too expect to exhaust them eventually? Wouldn't it be smarter to secure as much land as possible before playing the waiting game?
>>535779317assholes
>>535779317Ironically, this map gives Russia more territory than they actually have
>>535779495They don't have the manpower.
>>535780099> no argument butthurt belters are sad lol
>>535779317
>>535779317Ukraine population is down to about 15 million people, I think the war can continue for about 3 more years
>>535779317Because when two militaries are of a similar level of quality, the decisive factor becomes the ability to keep the war machine going
>>535780284This is a proxy war. In 1945, Russians were in Berlin. In 2026, Russians are dying in Ukrainian villages and fields while Westerners post memes online. Who won? West or Russia?
>>535780634When you put it like that...
>>535779317That's not real map. For your answer it's the inability to achive air supremacy what made it impossible and the advent of drone warfare that made ground gain impractical now. We are now in a true war of attrition. Ukraine isn't also going get back the territory they lost due to the same reason. Unironically both side should now just make a peace now and stay with whatever they have.
>>535779317they're holding the territory that is ethnically majority russian.trying to occupy a hostile population is fucking retarded.i don't know how many more times this needs to be tried before the last boomer gets it.
