The U.S. lost 58,000 dead in 10 years in Vietnam. Russia has confirmed at least 50,000 dead in 2 years.With all the money the US is throwing into Ukraine, yes, Russia is correct. Probably about to be worse because Vietnam was at least about fighting idealism of communism and how it's wrong to embrace. Why exactly is the US THAT invested into Ukraine that they keep sending them money like that?Miss me with the NATO

Russia's natural population growth has been negative or flat since 2000, which means that overall deaths have outnumbered births. Only 1.27mn babies were born in Russia last year, the lowest number since 2000. The drop in the birth rate echoes the massive drop in the 1990s following the breakup of the Soviet Union
