Thank you - great analysis.

Excellent commentary, Russia’s economic woes are internally generated rather than the West’s doing.

…western sanctions are useless without will and means to strictly enforce it, it’s like in that Seinfeld episode with car reservation when he made a reservation and they said they don’t have a car

Fortunately, China and DPRK can keep Russia afloat long after NATO support collapses.

Make no mistake, China will NOT allow Russia to fail in Ukraine.

China will own Russia.

Russia is the junior partner in the equation, analogous to the USA/UK relationship.

I am waiting for Putin’s obituary actually.

Guaranteed, Zelenskyy's death will come first. Either through a Russian Oreshnik into his bedroom, poisoned cocaine from the neo-Nazis, or, if he manages to flee Ukraine, Kolomoisky will hunt him to the ends of the earth for his bbetrayal.

Regardless, good riddance to a bad comedian.
