Russia cleaned Mariupol of nazi, they are now starting to clean up Ukrainian eastern army the most experienced fighting force in Europe they have been fighting the Donbass people republic army since like 2014. Ukrainian cannot join NATO or the EU as long as the war wages on. Those were the main objectives Putin said in his war speech at the end of februari.

Now within Europe the next most capable NATO army is the polish army which is even worse equipped than the Ukrainian one. As a person that still lives in the EU its kinda worrying to see the Russian chew through the EU NATO best regional armies as if it's just a sweaty warming up.

Regarding Russias great power status i don't agree they are a great power and one that isn't even that limited regionally seen, they are active in the middle east, north Africa and central Asia they are just not a super power like the US and China.

> the Russian chew through the EU NATO best regional armies as if it's just a sweaty warming up.

Russians are fighting NATO troops now? You have a source for that?

edit: I know I shouldn't be engaging in this as refuting nonsense like this takes more effort than creating it.

Jesus Christ, that's one if the most absurd things I've read in a while. Nazis in Mariupol? Russians chew through EU NATO?

Russia would already be in pieces if it wasn't for nuclear weapons.

So those soldier accidently put on Nazi symbols or tattoo on their bodies really weird, and people wonder how the holocaust could happen in Europe during ww2.

Yeah Ukrainian army is one of the better equipped and manned army of NATO. Hell turkey is the second biggest NATO army after the US. Germany as a army is non existing reason why they need this $100 billion to bootstrap their rearmament program and the yearly 2% GDP to keep up to standards.

Ukraine isn't part of NATO, what are you even talking about?
