Russia doing 'terribly badly' in Ukraine as war economy causes problems for the Kremlin | Robert Fox

"Long term, Russia cannot go on at this level. It's consuming so much of its economy."

Putin's war is going "terribly badly" but Ukraine is showing signs of fatigue and "could crack", claims Defence Editor of the Evening Standard Robert Fox.

Ukraine is fighting an existential war. Even if it bends, it won't break. Russia on the other hand has stretched its economy and society so far that it very well might.

A Sudetenland peace is no peace at all. We should have learned that by now.

There must be different measures of bravado in Russia. I don't see how bombing a children's hospital and medical clinic makes you look like a winner. Its quite shameful and unbecoming of a civilized nation.

ALL damage is deliberate ever since the Czar invaded.

[mickelodiansurname]

NATO seriously needs to up its game and get its assorted industry to start pumping out ammo and kit as if its going out of style.... cos if they don't Russia will just see that as a green light to do whatever they like.

Zelensky was comedian. He turned Russia into one big joke😂

[captainhaddck]

Imagine deliberately targeting a children's hospital. Pure evil.
Слава Україні! 💙💛

Block Orban at EU, and kick out Russia from UN Security Council…

[Steinstra-vjwl]

Hahahaha, because the truth is 180 degrees different.

[StillAliveAndKicking_]

Zelensky used to be a comedian and became a serious politician. Putin was a serious politician and became a joke.

Russia lost on day one. Now they're just deciding on how much they want to bleed before they give up and retreat.

[nyttag]

Putin should not wish to ever cross my path

[shannonwasserman]

Why are we allowing Russia to get away with this?? WHY???😡😡😡😡😡

[FrankdeGroot-qcdo]

Despite the massive stockpile of Soviet weapons and putting the economy on a war footing, Russia is being pummeled by a much smaller army

[philosopherking]

He’s desperate for a ceasefire. That’s why he “offered” Ukraine to end hostilities if they agreed to give up the occupied territories. And when that ridiculous gambit didn’t work, he sent Orban to meet with Zelenskyy.

[Maniak-eb]

i really hope this nato conference will unshackle Ukraine's ability to defend iteself and ffs biden grow some cojones and stop tip toing around russia,

[rhorton-ic]

Where will Putin be stopped if not in Ukraine?

[pendleburyable]

NATO is a snivelling child, the Ukrainians are magnificent.

Good clip. Thought-provoking questions and answers. Fox lays out some of the underlying basics very well.

I used to read Robert Fox in the Independent. A great journalist. Honest, truthful and incisive. Many journalists could learn from him. Pity that many don't.
