>Putin chose war over peace this spring because his spies and generals told him that Ukraine is on the brink of collapse
didn't the same "generals and spies" tell him in 2022 that he could take keeiif-in-3 days and Ukrainians will welcome his puppet replacement for Zelensky?
pootin literally has till September to show any progress and so far it's been negligent, two months into his summer campaign. the russian economy is in the toilet be every metric, the many industries are collapsing, the inflation is out of control, the military is losing low to mid level experienced commanding officers at irreplaceable rates ... they lost at least 12 generals so far! in a special military operation not a war!
