Russia is Quickly Losing its Ability to Wage War - Paul Warburg



Ukraine's strikes against Russia are beginning to have a large impact. Whether they be drones or Flamingo Missiles, military targets or infrastructure, Russia's ability to continue fighting is being severely ground down by well targeted hits.

On one hand, Russia is having gasoline shortages all over the place as Ukraine has been striking Russian energy targets. Oil refineries, gas facilities, oil pipelines, etc. On the other hand, the military can't acquire sufficient equipment to make meaningful offensives.

The rampant shortages on the home front, as well as on the frontlines, show that Ukraine's strikes have reached a critical point, where Russia can no longer avoid the effects. And these effects could cause many problems - economic, military, and also when it comes to internal stability. We discuss it all in this video.

I'm glad the Russians don't know the difference.
