How they are losing? There are problems, but they aren't losing. Ukraina did mostly unsuccessful counter-offensive by not gaining much territory, but Russia managed anyway to lose few times more soldiers during that period. Military theory says that normally attacker loses are at least 3 to 1 vs defender's (more in urban warfare), here it was opposite.
60 billion aid USA plans to give to Ukraine is less than 10% of it's military budget, which could be no more than 2% of total federal budget. And it's not money they are sending, but mostly ammunition and military equipment, lots of that comes from already existing stores.
You are too emotional. I am watching this proxy war from a neutral perspective. First: You need to accumulate spending of the Nato states to compare it with Russia's efforts. Secondly, Ukraine is running out of manpower as it is losing multiples compared to Russia. Listen to Col. McGregor to get an idea and stop the mainstream media bs, they are not neutral. But if it makes You feel better, believe whatever You like.

Source of such data? Russians are definitely losing more, they are sending mass human wave attacks and counterattacks with criminal convicts and badly trained conscripts and use barrier troops, so that those units cannot retreat. Nothing has changed in their attitude towards people in last few hundred years.

History didn't start 70 years ago. It has been my hobby and object of interest since times of elementary school. And, yes, of course, a lots of books, because it was before Internet.
But I actually asked you to provide source of data about your statement that Ukrainians are losing more soldiers than Russians currently.

Start with Col. MacGregor. And then do something Your propaganda media refuses to do: research and investigation. You are a consumer of propaganda. Therefore the result if this conflict will surprise You like the peiple that followed the Vietnam War, Korea, Afghanistan, Syria etc.

Do you speak / read / understand Russian? I do. There is much bullshit and propaganda in Western politics and MSM, but you probably have no idea what's happening on other side. it's worse than even in times of USSR nowadays.

at this point i realize how deep you have fallen into the well of western propaganda. once again: for journalistic aspects and purposes you must practice neutrality. for me, as a great admirer of american values of freedom sovereignty and free market economy, everything that is happening these days is terrible. but still i have to say that you cannot compare Russia with the USSR at all anymore. let's agree to disagree. have a nice day
