That's a fair point to make given that Russia is very reliant on munitions from DPRK. It's not just Ukraine that's dependent on foreign partners for their war effort, Russia is too.
>Not when Ukraine is conscripting 60+ y/o grandfathers and pressganging people off the street as Biden's last package runs out. (lmk if you want sources)
That's a good point. Ukraine is obviously completely outmatched in manpower, but that's also mitigated by the fact that they aren't really attacking anything right now, just slow gradual retreats and allowing the Russians to advance. It's textbook defence in depth, which is the best strategy they could use given their extremely punitive manpower constraints.
This could motivate people to rise up against the Kiev regime but it would probably have happened already if pro-Russian Ukrainian loss numbers are to be believed. But perhaps they're actually a lot lower and the attrition rate incurred by Ukraine isn't that bad. That's something Russia should be able to exploit however. The more losses there are, the greater the pressure is at home to peace the war.
>Ukraine has every reason to lie
3rd party observers who confirm their statements with evidence can't be glibly dismissed as liars like Ukrainian or Russian government sources could.
It's pretty clear that the Russians are suffering far larger losses than Ukraine and their industry can't keep up. It must be asked what they can do to change their strategy to actually mount effective assaults on Ukrainian industries and cities. The MoD is out of its depth at the moment.
