Russia is now experiencing significant challenges in their military strategy and operational effectiveness
The United States opted to safeguard its sovereignty and security by communicating to Europe its disinterest in a globalist government. This approach included efforts to neutralize Venezuela and combat its drug trade, employing tariffs to protect U.S. trade, and leveraging its technological and tactical capabilities to counter Iran's nuclear ambitions and radical Islamist activities. The latter strategy has taken five weeks to effectively implement.
Undoubtedly, Russia holds a dominant position in the parts of eastern Ukraine that they desired, where the population is predominantly Russian rather than Ukrainian.
Russian losses in Ukraine have been staggering. According to British sources, approximately 1,118,000 were killed, wounded, or missing so far. Ukraine sources put the number at 1,306,500. CNN says about 1.2 million. The Russian Navy has lost 33 ships plus 2 submarines. Aircraft losses are at 435, plus 350 helicopters. They have lost approximately 4,000 tanks (AI), 40,000 artillery pieces, and 25,000 armored fighting vehicles.
Russia is now experiencing significant challenges in their military strategy and operational effectiveness, especially regarding any prolonged conflict.
The United States has effectively ended Iran's plans to obtain any nuclear weapons and severely diminished its ability to attack Israel. Most of Iran's leaders have been killed; they no longer have a navy, an air force, or a single hair of a competent army. In short, their military has been rendered ineffective. But they still play duplicitous games in coming to a form of agreement, often using negotiations as a tactic to buy time while they continue to pursue their strategic goals.
