How Russia is Losing to Ukraine | 7 Months Later | Dhruv Rathee ft. @sochbymm - Summary

Summary

The video discusses the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war and its impact on the Russian population. It highlights the rising prices of international flights from Russia due to the war, which has made them unaffordable for most Russians. The video also mentions that Russian President Putin declared Partial Mobilization in Russia, forcing average Russians who do not want to participate in the war to go to the frontlines. This has led to a surge in people looking for ways to avoid being listed for mobilization, such as breaking their arms.

The video also discusses the changing sentiment of the Russian population towards the war. Initially, many Russians supported the war, but as the war has escalated and affected their daily lives, more people have started to question the decision. The video shows a tweet from a Russian man who initially supported the Russian army but later expressed his support for Ukraine and criticized Putin's decision to mobilize citizens.

The video also provides a detailed analysis of the war's progression, including the failed Russian invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent turn of events that has led to Ukraine regaining control over more areas. The video also discusses the role of high-tech weapons supplied by America to Ukraine, which has significantly impacted the war's outcome.

The video concludes by discussing the possibility of a negotiated end to the war, with the country that sets the agenda in the war likely to set the agenda during the negotiation. It also mentions concerns about the potential use of nuclear weapons by Putin if Russia starts to lose the war, but experts believe this is more of a threat than a reality. The video ends with a discussion on the growing number of people in Russia who are against Putin's decision to mobilize citizens, suggesting that public opinion may turn against Putin if Ukraine defeats Russia.
