dude the ruble has already bounced back, they have more than enough to pay their debts without defaulting, their collaborating with China to building a rival financial system.This isn’t Vietnam. Russia is heavily under sanctions and they’re about to default on debt. Sanctions are fukking their economy and unlike the US in Vietnam, they literally cannot afford a long term quagmire in Ukraine.
Russia isn’t “winning”. They can’t topple the Ukraine government or take the capitol. They’re constantly losing vehicles and men. This is a disaster for them. They may take parts of the East but likely can’t hold them.
Stop thinking Russia is a unruly country that will get put in it's place, they're drawing a line in the sand and saying any countries that don't really fukk with the West come build with us.
This is BRICS taken to the extreme.
Please get your news from actual people that have an actually stake in the outcome of this war, instead of the media conglomerates that have financial stake in the war
The ruble has bounced back. Are sanctions not working?
