1. Russia is now completely an utterly dependent on China and China alone. If Xi wanted he could end this war tomorrow but he is winning by dragging the conflict out as long as he can. China is gaining a weak subservient Russia who supplies cheap resources as China are the biggest buyer and sells finished products at high prices because they are Russia's only available supplier. China gains against the west as prolonging the war is expensive for Europe.

2. True but the direct oil supply is minimal compared to pre 2022 levels. Russia buys a limited supply of necessary western goods at expensive smuggler prices. I love how you guys point out that the EU is a vassal state of the USA while Russia is absolutely a vassal state of China. The USA and the EU have clearly diverged over the Russian war in terms of their foreign policy with the USA under Trump trying to sell out Ukraine in order to end the war with the EU siding with Ukraine. The EU will clearly be the one who benefits from Ukraine and her resources after the war and the USA knows this.

3. Russia has lost 450,000 men and NATO has lost 0. So much winning! Russia has been losing ground to Ukraine for a year now with their front lines looking more porous by the week. Russian refineries and warehouses burn as companies and individuals increasingly default on their high interest loans. Food prices in Russia are sky high with continuing and lately increasing inflation. Russia is setting the conditions for its collapse and surrender. The EU is hardly broke and they will take much of that 300 billion in Russian money as compensation for the war with EU companies benefitting from the rebuild. Why would the EU support Russian deals, Russia already broke the non aggression pact they had with Ukraine. Dealing with Russia just gives Russia time to rebuild and try again, much better to end the Putin regime and compete with China over the leftovers of whatever comes after.

We have our "echo chamber" you have your wet dream Russian propaganda. The facts on the ground disprove your bullshit. Russia did ok the first few months of the war, we are now at 5 years with 4 of those years being a virtual stalemate but sure mighty Russia are winning in your vodka and krokodil addled mind, daddy Putin wouldn't lie to you, would he. Go watch some more memes of shirtless Putin riding a bear and have a sad wank.
