Here are some observations from journalist Pepe Escobar:
In Moscow you feel no crisis. No effects of sanctions. No unemployment. No homeless people in the streets. Minimal inflation. Import substitution in all areas, especially agriculture, has been a resounding success. Supermarkets have everything – and more – compared to the West. There’s an abundance of first-rate restaurants. You can buy a Bentley or a Loro Pianna cashmere coat you can’t even find in Italy. We laughed about it chatting with managers at the TSUM department store.

Compare that to the mess Biden is turning the US into. Do you still think Putin is going to lose this hybrid war?
By the time of our pending "Vietnam/Afghanistan/Ukraine moment", we'll be enjoying few of the things Russians have in abundance. We will, however, have countless new enemies, who can't wait to witness the final fall of our once great republic empire.
And surprisingly, many of your neighbors apparently feel the same way.
