Stunning Data on Putin's War Efforts - More than 400,000 Russian soldiers have perished.
A UK representative at the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) in Vienna shared some startling statistics about the ongoing war in Ukraine. They stated that the number of killed or injured Russian soldiers per day was higher than ever before at around 1000 losses daily during the previous month.
This war is not only taking a heavy toll on lives lost, but it's also putting a strain on Russia financially, as its defense spending accounts for 40% of the country's overall expenditures, which is about 6% of their GDP. The landscape for the country is looking grim, according to the rep, as they're facing devastating losses in terms of lives, resources, and credibility.
In response to these developments, the Kremlin in Moscow has warned against any potential attacks on Russia. Spokesman Dmitry Peskov urged the West to avoid such blunders and stepped up aggression against Russia, warning of dire consequences. He also mentioned that nations endorsing these confrontational actions were essentially harming their own interests in the long run by escalating tensions.
NATO allies of Ukraine have raised the issue of permitting the use of Western weapons for attacks on Russian targets on their soil. So far, Ukraine has primarily focused their attacks on Russian positions in the occupied territories of Ukraine itself using their own missile systems and drones. However, there's a potential that these allied countries may authorize Ukraine to use their weapons for farther-reaching strikes.
