That’s fair. I guess a more accurate statement would be that Russia’s army is significantly more rekt than people generally expected them to be after going to war with Ukraine.
The Russian economy is just now fully mobilized on a war footing. Stopping the war would send them into an economic depression.
Victory for Russia in Europe isn’t necessarily rolling through Eastern Europe and Germany at the head of huge tank formations.
But taking the Baltic States and parts of Europe and sitting on them. Would Western Europe and the US come to the aid of those smaller NATO allies and engage in a potentially grinding war to throw Russian back?
Grabbing a few key areas while splitting NATO permanently… That it could do.
Russia’s army got rekt and his soldiers are literally starving. I don’t doubt that Putin wants to try something but I just don’t see it happening.
But are still in Ukraine, so lets not be so dismissive just yet because if they were rekt, they wouldnt be in ukraine

I believe deeply that Europe would. The strategic consequences of not doing so are too clear. Plus, we all really like the Baltics.
