In a war where everyone takes part and winning means having resources, we will come up short. This is because Russia has a much larger pool of resources.
Everyone fighting at the front has an impact on our economy, and this extends to our society as a whole.
Therefore, when certain ideas are spread by individuals like Vereshchuk, it's not about responding with collective outcry, but rather engaging in logical thinking.
“Indeed, Putin is inclined toward such a war. By sending 20 million to the frontlines, he leaves another 110 million to support the economy. Unfortunately, we don't have that advantage.”
Thus, we must contemplate how to achieve victory through technology. This involves diplomacy, business, and weapons—assets that Russia lacks. We've become adept at heroic sacrifice and grieving for the lost. We must find ways to make the enemy suffer in their own destroyed cities.
I realize that there are few strategic thinkers in positions of power. However, it's crucial to strategize, to act in ways that are effective and painful for the enemy. Yes, mobilization is necessary. Soldiers must fight, and we should be ready with replacements. Yet, engaging in an endless exchange of blows with Putin would lead to defeat. We must strike where Russia is vulnerable. Unlike Zhukov, we don't possess an unlimited number of people. We simply can't afford to invest millions of lives without a clear strategy.
