Beware of the "sharp turn": Will Russia suddenly fall to the US and the West?
Recently, someone on the Internet has sent out a dangerous signal, that is, beware that Russia is still in a trap and will make a "sharp turn" and completely turn to the West.
Although this may seem a bit alarmist, it is not impossible, and anything can happen in a rapidly changing international situation.
At present, the Russian-Ukrainian war has been fought for almost two years and is soon entering its third year. And with Russia's economic size equivalent to one of our provinces, in the face of dozens of Western powers, Russia may still really not be able to afford it.
I used to think that I could scare people with a gas canister, but now it seems that this trick does not work. One is that some people don't want to die with others at all, and they are worried that the gas canister will be finished before it is thrown out.
Russia's sudden "sharp U-turn" is not groundless, but a realistic possibility. Here's why:
1. The huge attrition of the war makes it difficult for Russia to continue. The most expensive thing to fight a war, can Russia still hold on?
2. Huge personnel**, with an average of nearly 1,000 people killed every day. While Russia's top brass sees nothing to lose, it is impossible to turn a blind eye to a living human life forever. In particular, even the pensions of the first military personnel are tight, and it is inevitable that there will be strong anti-war sentiment in the country.
3. Huge overseas assets are seized, long-term and endless economic sanctions, and income is reduced, and no one can stand it.
4. The disintegration of the former Soviet Union is not far away. It was because of the enormous attrition of the war in Afghanistan that eventually led to the collapse of the mighty Soviet Union. And the former Soviet Union's ten years of war in Afghanistan died only 1The 50,000 Russian soldiers are now far more than several times the number of those years, and it's a terrible thing to think about.
5. Russia is currently quite isolated internationally, and the forces supporting Russia and the forces behind Ukraine are not at all on the same level.
Behind Ukraine is the richest bloc in the world, the United States and the West, and behind Russia are some countries?
6. High-tech assistance to Ukraine is being put in place one after another, and the Ukrainian army has shot down a number of Soviet-made aircraft of Russian value in one day in recent days, and also destroyed a large landing ship.
Russia's two proud friends, a navy and an air force, don't seem to be doing any better. The Navy is a powerful Black Sea Fleet, which seems to have been beaten to pieces and almost withdrawn from the Black Sea;The Aerospace Forces below have been damaged by four or five planes in a row in recent days, and if they are beaten to pieces, what can they rely on?Is there only a human charge left?
And it's not like Russia can't do such a "sharp turn". Russia's leaders are not only mighty and domineering, but also absolutely intelligent.
For example, in order to curry favor with Arab countries, Iran was recently sold again, and at the summit between Russia and Arab countries, Iran's core interests were disregarded, causing a diplomatic storm.
Moreover, Russia has applied for NATO several times before, and if this time it suddenly takes the withdrawal of troops from Ukraine as one of the conditions for joining NATO, the West may consider it.
If such a result can be achieved, Russia can once again break the world hegemony of US imperialism, and it will have all the face, and it will be reasonable in the international community and explain it at home, after all, it will be another victory.
