Weaker Russia means lower need for future military spending, and it is cheaper to give old weapons to Ukraine than to dispose of them locally.
Russian economy is growing while the west is going into a recession. Russian factory activity grows at fastest pace in over six years, meanwhile while US manufacturing activity shrinks the most in three years.. UK now can't even make steel from raw materials.
Yes, people still bleat about a weaker Russia. 🤡
