Yagoda Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 3 minutes ago, Lacessit said: Your argument is Putin will stop after he wins in Ukraine. Where are your facts and evidence to support that? Well I can start the digression by asking if you realisticly beleive that Putin is an actual danger of "winning" against Nato, considering he will be fighting in the Ukraine until he dies, US aid or not.

AFAIK the US is doing very well for itself in that field, whereas those nations who bought Russian armaments are having considerable buyer's remorse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putin could conceivably win against NATO if it is neutered by Trump. Ukrainians have to kill 8 Russians for every casualty on their side to even achieve parity.
