Putin was dealt a strong hand and managed to play himself into a weak position. Twenty years ago Russia was on a roll. It's interesting if you plot Russian and Norwegian GDP against oil prices, the plots look almost identical. But Norway managed to parlay that into the second highest Human Development Index in the world, just slighly behind Switzerland. Russia ranks at #56, well below, say, Greece at #33. Russia squandered the money coming in enriching people with political connections to Putin. It could have used its economic power to transform its cultural connections to places like Ukraine into soft power, instead it chose to meddle in their politics, to bully and intimidate it's neighbors so even the most stubborn neutral of them decided they'd be better off in NATO. Really the only thing that approaches Russia for stubbornly bad decision making in modern history is Japan heading into WW2.

Putin has succeeded in uniting NATO, bringing Sweden and Finland into NATO, increasing NATO's BUDGET, isolating Russia and exposing the pathetic weakness of the Russian armed forces.

Exactly! "The relationship between Donald Trump and Vladamir Putin, there is so much SPECULATION around, um there is certainly something there between the two of them." You people are ridiculous! I bet most people who subscribe to this channel are ignorant and don't know that the "Russian Collusion" claims were FAKE. Also, I bet that most people here don't know that Hunter Biden's laptop WAS NOT a part of Russian Disinformation like the 51 former American intelligence officers attested to in a letter. I mean, Col. Philip here doesn't seem to know. Otherwise why would he be spewing nonsense like there is some relationship with Trump and Putin. If Col. Philip and the viewers and people commenting here did know that all the Russia accusations against Trump were faked, fraudulent, and a bunch of lies, saying that there is "something" going on with Trump and Putin is asinine and has no bearing in reality. Let's not forget about YOUR Imam though: In 2012, during a nuclear security summit in Seoul, President Barack Obama was overheard on a hot mic speaking to then-Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. Obama told Medvedev, "This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility." Medvedev responded, "I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir." Who has "something" with Putin again??

They already burned male prisoners, professional mercenaries, elite units, most professional soldiers. At the moment they burn female prisoners, amateur mercenaries from Africa, Cuba, Nepal, SriLanka, amateur soldiers from Eastern Ukraine, Asians of former Soviet countries etc. The air is really getting thinner and thinner for Putin - on the ground less and less able staff, and many specialists (pilots, air defence staff, electronic warfare staff) were killed, which only can be replaced after years. He can of course send "anybody" to the frontline - BUT remember 2.WW: Nazis did send millions of soldiers to the frontlines in 44/45, called "Volkssturm". Older, teens, women, whatever ... with almost no effect. And in 2024 such types of soldiers have even less effectivity than 1944, as the military technic is now more complicated than in 1944. If he sends 500.000 new "soldiers" for every single one there are waiting 2-3 drones to explode directly in their undertroucers. And in Russian society most people are not willing to give their life for Putin. Just look at Dagestan, they already started rebellion and attack police stations, killing many policemen. And most killed Russian soldiers in Ukraine were from Dagestan.

At this rate of "progress", Russia will conquer all of Ukraine in 377 YEARS and it will cost the LIVES of 34 MILLION Russian soldiers. Russia is PATHETIC.

Russia is not the Soviet Union, it’s been in terminal demographic collapse since the 80’s even by (undoubtedly heavily massaged) Russian statistics which made this war inevitable and this has just accelerated as a result of the war.
