    Of course, that’s why they’ve been able to devastate Ukraine without facing much resistance. They’re certainly not being humiliated, are they?

    But let’s be real, there’s a big difference between being able to build tractors with a cannon attached and actually producing proper tanks. Europe has one capability, and Russia has the other—I don’t need to spell out which is which, the convoy heading toward Kyiv at the start of the war made that pretty clear.

        It could be, I’m not a military expert, but I have eyes in my face and I can see that they’re not capable of gaining air superiority against one of the poorest countries in Europe. Maybe they didn’t want to, but I believe they couldn’t. I see that it’s almost been three years since the Moskva sank, and there’s still no replacement in sight. Maybe they don’t want to build one, but I think they can’t.

        Maybe I’m quite deluded about Russia.
