I don't think the Russian military is going to recover any prestige for a long time. It's an absolute clusterfuck and Putin has demonstrated to the whole world just how poor and weak it is.

I'm not sure it is poor or weak. People forget how big Ukraine is and they are a fair way in at this point. They have been met with a stubborn enemy who are having arms n cash poured into them.

It's logistical supply has been terrible and can only get worse as supply lines become extended. Their only resort has been to shell civilian areas in an attempt to terrorise the population. It's shite man.

The interesting thing for me about Fiona Hill is she talks about this being the latest step in a war that Russia has been waging on a number of fronts for years - information, political inteference, disruption, espionage.
