Putin signs law to mobilize 300,000 Russian men of fighting age

@Ferise1 says
You, and Putin, seem to be ignoring a three-way treaty known as the 1994 Budapest Memorandum.

Essentially, Ukraine agreed to give up all its nuclear weapons to Russia in exchange for safety from a U.S. or Russian invasion. Russia's invasion of Ukraine violates that treaty. And as a signatory to that 1994 Budapest Memorandum, the U.S. has a definite interest in righting Putin's current wrongs.

Sorry, dude, but Russia promised specifically NOT to invade Ukraine, and the U.S. promised specifically to ASSIST Ukraine if the treaty were ever violated. And that's JUST what the U.S. is doing now.

There is something very rotten in Moscow, and it's Putin and his regime. Bottom line is that he can't risk his regular military - his regular army. He has just enough trained and equipped soldiers to protect his nation, not enough to fight a war on foreign soil. He can defend his nation, he cannot, as he has already proven, project his might beyond the borders of Russia.

His military and its command structure is old, inexperienced and worn, and not prepared to fight a war. His equipment and armament are outdated and the few modern pieces of war fighting machinery they possess are stretched beyond their capabilities, low in numbers and not well maintained.

He could fight a short, limited campaign and now that his military has been stopped and in some places routed, he has no choice but to attempt to use a few hundred thousand as cannon fodder hoping sheer numbers will turn the tide. It won't work, but he will try - if he doesn't, it is over for him. His choice is to fight and come up with some sort of win, or die... literally, die.

Right now he has been stopped and needs more soldiers that are trained, well equipped and who have an adequate resupply system. He doesn't have the time or resources to properly train them or build the infrastructure to support them.

None of this bodes well for him, and the problem with that, is he will have to more and more resort to heavier artillery, missile and air attacks to halt the Ukraine forces... that means more collateral damage and more dead Ukrainian civilians. I suspect things are going to get real ugly, real fast and the war crimes will escalate.

In the end, he will lose both the war and very probably his life. There is one wild card in all this and that is tactical nukes. I cannot see him using them because it will quickly escalate the war into a battle with NATO
- a war he and his country cannot possibly win. Nobody can win that type of war and as long as he remembers that, the wild card won't be played. The problem there is when a wild animal is cornered, all bets are off.

NATO and the Ukraine have no choice. The only one left with a choice is Putin.

In January Russia was recognised as the world's second best army in the world. Now they are recognised as the second best army in Ukraine.

It's good that a lot of people there don't agree with him. Special place in hell for Putin

Some more shit you know nothing about, you just repeat what you hear on main stream propaganda news,

Desperate times calls for desperate measures.

Did you know he used to give awards, medals and trophies to women who bore 10 + kids….now we can see his hidden agenda.

Putin is Evil

Looks like a lot more people have to die to satisfy Putins grand delusions..

great majority of russians have been supporting putin and I don't think that will change

Putin is losing his mind . This war has reminded us that Russia is not the Soviet Union. Russia is a third rate country with oil and a nuclear arsenal .

Riots in St Petersburg and Moscow tonight. Thousands in the streets. Hundreds of people arrested in Moscow.

oh no. at this rate, the Ukrainians will need another 12 himars plus rockets to outfit them.

I read somewhere that Moscow –> Istanbul tickets cost $9000 today.

The only way this is gonna end is when Putin dies or becomes incapacitated. :(

Lithuania won't give visa to Russians who want to escape.

Smart move by a smart leader

Wonder how this will affect Russian hockey players still over there? At least one has been barred from getting out: Ivan Fedotov, signed by the Flyers a few months ago, forced into the Russian military a couple days later.

Ukraine did that with all their men, already.
War is very important to murka, so we can't stop it.

You really do need to stop listening to mainstream media for you news, it really is all propaganda

And to think here we have governors wanting the national guard to curtail immigrants

The biggest mistake Ukriane did giving upp its nukes.

Why doesnt he put himself in the front line??

sounds to me like russia getting scared...

I can't wait for the demise of Russia, the people are so backward thinking and they need to be isolated from the rest of the world

I read all one way flights out of Russia that do not require a Visa are all booked.

what a nightmare

Yeah, that's the best way to motivate people to fight for their country.
