Russia is never as weak at its lowest, nor as strong at its highest, as it seems
1/7 Most people both underestimate and overestimate Russia at the same time.
It is fragile yet strong. Losing in Ukraine does not make it harmless.
Here is why Russia remains a serious threat until it is properly defeated

Ragozin’s pro-Kremlin wishful thinking overlooks that Ukraine will access Russian frozen assets in some form or another and is ramping up domestic arms production.
Russia’s mobilization of reservists shows that Kyiv’s strike campaign is working

Since Russia’s real mobilization in fall 2022, rumored mobilizations never happened.
Now Russia is calling up reservists to protect critical infrastructure.
This shows Ukraine’s strike campaign is working and must continue and accelerate

Russia cannot reach its initial strategic goals and will lose, no matter how long the war lasts.
Europe decides how long it continues.
Stop hoping it will end by itself, and make it end sooner by seizing Russia’s frozen assets!

Small sanctions with exceptions for some countries and the decision not to sell missiles to Ukraine don’t count as an actual change in strategy
