Who can really say. Is it just the familiar old Russian


Ricketyness we grew to recognize in the Soviet era? We spent the ‘70s hearing all about Soviet advantages over nato, only to find out that the troops were generally drunk and half the tanks didn’t really work. Who knows how chaotic command and control is?

Then there’s the possibility that Vlad really expected the Ukrainians to lay down their arms. If so, not savvy. What if that’s just plan A, and there’s a plan B with all those forces yet to be committed? That’s what worries me.
