Putin's Unwavering Stance on War and Defense
TL;DR Summary
Russian President Vladimir Putin has publicly acknowledged several military shortcomings, including insufficient weapons and expensive equipment losses, leading to speculation that he might be employing a new strategy. Some experts believe that Putin is signaling to Ukraine to cease its efforts to regain more territory or risk Putin paying whatever price is necessary to defeat Ukraine. Others suggest that Putin is taking a page from Sun Tzu's The Art of War in trying to make Ukraine underestimate him. However, the overall result of Putin's strategy could be bad for nearly everyone.
