A trip to Google Earth is quite enlightening.

Ukraine should keep hitting those facilities.

86 Tuapse!

They should keep the momentum going.

Slava Ukraine!

Burn it to the ground.

But I've got a sneaking suspicion he's abandoned reason, and relies on the political idiots in his staff telling him "it's still winnable!"

What Putin is doing to Russia's to military what trump is doing to our government-- trying to slowly choke the life out of it while simultaneously jib-jabbering on about being the only one who can save it.

He will push for more war spending, from any source possible. More recruiting.
If that doesn't work I think he'll even think about the nuclear option. With those smaller n bombs first.
He will take the world to the brink....and only stop when he is stopped by other oligarchs who see their fortunes at stake and the planet as well.

If some folks would 86 both Trump and Putin, the world would be so much better off

He's got nothing left in the tank, and I suspect his nukes wouldn't fly even if he wanted them to. His only remaining choice is whether he goes out like Hitler, or like Mussolini.

It is only when Ukraine, with Europe, finally piss off his wealthy elite peers enough, because they are losing money, that he will be forced out......kicking and screaming

I'd guess much of Ukraines infrastructure is in Poland except things that can't be imported like electricity. Russia has no place to hide it's stuff, and needs tremendous amounts of money to fund it's war fighting. Eventually Russia is going to have problems supplying itself.
