Putin is already feeling the strainโhe is trying to recruit Syrian mercenaries and asking China for equipment. Those are signs that he does not have enough soldiers or weapons to make up for heavier-than-expected losses in a war not going according to plan.https://t.co/aMZPAYXa5A — PolitiTweet.org

Putin is making life hell for Ukrainian civilians, but Ukrainian fighters supplied by the West can make life hell for Russian troops for years to come โ and it will take more than a few missile strikes to cut Ukraineโs supply lines from its NATO neighbors. https://t.co/aMZPAYFze2 — PolitiTweet.org

US officials estimate Russia lost 5,000-6,000 soldiers in the first two weeks of the warโ400 a day. (The real figure might be 700 a day.) Those are the kind of combat losses Russia has not suffered since 1945. In Afghanistan the Soviets averaged 5 KIA/day. https://t.co/aMZPAYFze2 — PolitiTweet.org
Max Boot ๐บ๐ฆ๐บ๐ธ @MaxBoot
The Russian army is trying to make up for its lack of military skill with sheer brutality. It is pounding Mariupol and Kharkiv into rubble, deliberately targeting civilians But such brutality can often boomerang by leading to stiffer resistance. https://t.co/aMZPAYFze2 — PolitiTweet.org
Max Boot ๐บ๐ฆ๐บ๐ธ @MaxBoot
It took Iraqi forces, supported by US military, 9 months in 2016-2017 to retake Mosul from 6,000 ISIS fighters. Is Putin willing to wait for a lengthy siege of Kyiv while sanctions continue to hammer the Russian economy and the body bags keep coming home? https://t.co/aMZPAYFze2 — PolitiTweet.org
Max Boot ๐บ๐ฆ๐บ๐ธ @MaxBoot
In E Ukraine & Syria, Putin delegated the dirty work of ground combat to local allies. But there is little prospect of recruiting a pro-Russian security force in the rest of Ukraine. Even Ukrainians once friendly to Moscow now consumed by hatred for Russia.https://t.co/aMZPAYFze2 — PolitiTweet.org
Max Boot ๐บ๐ฆ๐บ๐ธ @MaxBoot
If Putin wants to avoid a lengthy quagmire, sooner or later he will need to moderate his maximalist objectives and end this evil war. The only sensible way out is to accept defeat while calling it a victory. Luckily for him, heโs a practiced prevaricator. https://t.co/aMZPAYFze2 — PolitiTweet.org

Ultimately what convinces me that Russia cannot win is Napoleonโs maxim: โIn war, moral power is to physical as three parts out of four.โ The Russians might have more materiel, but the Ukrainians have a decisive moral โ and morale โ advantage. https://t.co/aMZPAYFze2 — PolitiTweet.org

US officials estimate that Russia lost 5,000-6,000 soldiers in the first two weeks of the warโor roughly 400 a day. (The real figure might be as high as 700 a day.) In Afghanistan, the Soviets averaged 5 KIA a day, and even that undermined the regime. https://t.co/aMZPAYFze2 — PolitiTweet.org

This is a war Putin believes he โcannot afford to loseโ (in the words of DNI Avril Haines), but itโs also one he cannot seem to win.His best bet was a blitzkrieg toward Kyiv in the warโs early days. But that fizzled out. Their advance is now stalled. https://t.co/aMZPAYFze2 — PolitiTweet.org
Max Boot ๐บ๐ฆ๐บ๐ธ @MaxBoot
It took US troops only three weeks to take Baghdad in 2003. But the Ukraine war is now almost 3 weeks old, and Putin is as far as ever from his stated objectives of โdemilitarization and denazification,โ meaning the imposition of a Russian puppet regime. https://t.co/aMZPAYFze2 — PolitiTweet.org
