Russia has lost over 900,000 soldiers since February 2022
-
Russian has been losing and the economy is collapsing since 2018 according to these news. Every other week I see something like this. Yet we dont see them retreating.
900k is more than 50% of there forces according to wikipedia that list 1.5 millions.
I highly doubt the accuracy of these news reports.
Their losses are clearly significant enough to bring a foreign army (North Koreans) to replenish their forces. Maybe not 50% but I don't think it's that far off.

Let them keep dying, it's pretty obvious Russias weak if it wasn't for the Nukes the rest of Europe would just pull an Iraq on them. I feel Russias real threat is probably China though they have a lot of land and it's ripe for the taking.

I travel a lot, both for work and leisure, and wherever there's no travel restrictions for Russians, like Thailand, UAE, or Egypt, it's simply overrun with Russian tourists. And they're rich, too, with the latest iPhones, Apple Watches and all the other fashion brands.
As much as I'd like to see l say that Russia is feeling the impact of this war, empirically, I can't say that it seems that way.
The richest people don't care about the war, if groceries go up 25% that barely makes a dent. You won't see the people who are actually suffering from this being tourists.

-900k orcs HAHA, should be more
Poor person gets brainwashed, coerced and joins military to earn money.
"Haha, orc!!! They all deserve to die a pigs death!!"

I'm not even Russian and I'm offended. Most of these people who died likely didn't even want to fight, but we're drafted anyway. Blame the oligarchy, not the people who were forced to participate.

Had my father been drafted for 'nam his plan was to use his rifle to kill as many officers as possible before himself, rather than fight for the US in that war. I had the same plan in the unlikely event I was drafted for something, too
Maybe the Russians could have a backbone like that, yeah? They're being given tools of war and willingly go off to die without a fight? Actually pathetic, and not worth sympathy

The fucking Muscovites can continue to fertilize the earth. The loss of troops and material means nothing to the Russians. The asswipes will continue to use mass assaults until the soldiers or the public revolts. Until then, Fuck Russia and US Reichwingers.

Not particularly, the problem is that Russia is stupid and would rather try to annex Ukraine rather than invest time and resources into the development of Siberia. Also they don't want to actually improve things just make them worse.

That's kind of what happens when your government and economy functions off of corruption.

Russia is losing... Badly
Their only hope is for Ukraine to just give up
This is trumps job now

Ukraine has lots of valuable natural resources, but Russia has much more of everything. The biggest reason for the invasion is most likely that Putin could not let a "brother nation" prosper and drift towards Europe and being a functioning democracy.
Russia's population might get wild ideas if they saw that their Ukrainian cousins' standard of living starts to rise rapidly while they have to endure living under a fascist dictator. And substandard and underdeveloped infrastructure, due to the rampant corruption and a government who doesn't give a shit about the areas outside the larger cities.

They're using money in lieu of skill. Eventually they'll run out if it.
Then no more high salary for the Russian soldier – and consequently, no more soldiers.

This is the reality of war. Millions of people die fighting over invisible lines on the map
This isn't a war of lines on the map, really. The Russia's goal is the end of Ukrainians as a nation. And breaking NATO's article 5.

It is collapsing. Some people have interpreted the news as the economy being at the brink of an immediate collapse, but articles I have read have talked consistently of end of 2025/early 2026.
The difference is, in 2022 and 2023 it was assumed that once it becomes clear that the Russia's economy collapsing will be inevitable unless they immediately end the war, they would indeed end it. Now it's clear that they will indeed go to the very end, allowing their economy to collapse and then the war ending as a consequence of that.
So, yes, it was predicted that the economy will collapse by 2026, and the war would end in 2022 or 2023 to avoid that. But, the timetable of the actual collapse has not changed. Or, at least not the timetables I've been seeing.

I have not heard of another batch of NK soldiers after the initial 12000. There are talks about them possibly sending another 12000.
With the Russia losing 1300 soldiers per day as dead and wounded, the NK troops cover 10(+ maybe another 10?) days worth soldiers.
The Russian army is shrinking by about 15 000 soldiers per month. That was canceled out by NK troops for one month once, and possibly another one soon.
