Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin could meet as soon as next week
The White House says it is "working through the details" after the Kremlin said the leaders were likely to meet soon.www.abc.net.au
While I completely agree with you and GrauGeist, there is a nuisance. Autocrats surround themselves with (usually incompetent) people that tells them what they want to hear. I would not be surprised that Putin is told that NATO is ill prepared and that Russia can reach Berlin in 3 days. The danger here is that when Poland (alone, no need for help) beats them to the dust things escalate from conventional 3-day sodomizing to all out nuclear war.If I can add a couple of other caveats to this.
a) By then, just how many men will Russia have left to fight a war. The barrel is already being cleaned out.
b) Nato's increased military spending will have come to fruition by 2030.
c) By then how much money will Russia have to fight a war. They are close to broke now and just to replace a fraction of what they have lost will cost an eye watering amount of money.
Even more scary are the ' Autocrats who surround themselves with (usually incompetent) people that tells them what they want to hear.' on both sides of the line.While I completely agree with you and GrauGeist, there is a nuisance.

Am I the only person who was struck by this part.With corruption, sanctions and a war going on, just how fit is Russia's nuclear Arsenal?
Russia's Nuclear Modernization Drive Is Only a Success on Paper
Notice that it was also pointed out that testing on both the subs and bombers has been scaled back?Am I the only person who was struck by this part.
So important is RVSN re-armament that the Kremlin is even skimping on testing. There was only one test launch of Sarmat instead of planned six in 2022. The imperative is to show Russia has upgraded its arsenal—whether these new systems actually work is of secondary concern.

It is actually doing quite well.So it has begun, the reassembly of the USSR, or maybe even the old Russian Empire.
