Actually Russia is FAR from “depleted” according to Col Douglas Macgregor, military consultant who has been very vociferous in his real world view of the Ukrainian war. This Biden, neo con proxy war has caused Russia to revamp its military, upgrade its war materiel industry, created new alliances with other powerful states who are sick of US bullying, found vast new outlets and income for its enormous gas and oil wealth and now seriously threatens the stability of the NATO alliance and the US dollar! This needless war will be nothing but a lose lose for the US while pushing Russia into a much much stronger place!
