In the ultimate irony, Russia’s obsession with Ukraine may have weakened its power over its other neighbors. Analysts say the war in Ukraine has created the irony that Russia has lost a degree of control, power and influence over its backyard.

Duh.
A strongman leader is only in control as long as he maintains that strongman image. There are many ancient grievances that will bubble up to the surface and may result in ethnic cleansing (forced to move out) of their respective russian populations.
In summary, the article highlights how Russia’s prolonged military engagement in Ukraine has inadvertently led to a reduction in its influence over its neighboring countries, particularly in the South Caucasus region. It presents a nuanced view of Russia’s varying degrees of influence across different former Soviet republics and emphasizes the potential opportunities for Western nations to increase their presence and influence in the region. The situation is portrayed as fluid, with potential shifts in regional power dynamics depending on the actions of both Russia and Western nations.
It’s actually worse than it sounds. Immigrants are treating russians like 2nd class citizens in Moscow, beatings in public and everything.
The videos on telegram are hilarious.
And turn two of its western neighbours into NATO members
It’s like me in strategy games: my dumb brain can concentrate only on one area at a time, micromanaging one spot while letting enemy walk through from other side.
That excuse is not valid for a whole country. Not even for russia!
PootinZ doesnt care, he has to win something from this biggest mistake of his stupid life or he will be lynched for losing.
He bet the farm, went all out, hoping to fulfill his delusional ambition.
That’s why he cant stop, even if it could ruin Russia for decades, its a price he will gladly pay.
Duh
I can imagine Armenia won’t be forgetting the Russians…
Well yeah. When the bully’s little posse sees him take a kick in the nuts from the victim they were bullying, then the bully doesn’t look so cool or strong anymore, does he?
any school yard kid who finally stands up to a bully and beats his ass could have written this article.
So water is wet
