I wonder at what point Russia measures themselves and determines that they have been weakened from a equipment/people talent standpoint to where they feel vulnerable. As paranoid as they are you’d think they’d factor in how long it’s going to take to rebuild themselves back to a point where folks are scared of them again
One thing is for certain, that without nukes, Russia does not have a formidable army and they could not withstand a war with US and Nato combined.
I don't think they could handle a war on the 2 fronts with poland and ukraine. Hell, they can't do a fight on 2 fronts just with ukraine.
