Well apparently there is a lot of hand ringing in Moscow over Putin's war effort as little progress is being seen with a vast jump in expenditures in equipment and manpower. The rate of dead and injured has been climbing up with over 70,000 dead, injured or desertion within a few months. For comparison 7,000 was the number US who died in the Iraq war during the entire war. People remember how people in the US reacted over those numbers cannot imagine that these numbers are sustainable for a year or more in Russia. Desperate actions here in the US by Putin supporters to slow the US aid to Russia is not something Putin can wait till Jan 2025.
