Putin's Victory Day speech: A whiny nothingburger-

Nothingburgers are perfect for those who want to lose weight
Howdy @SpikeTalon,
The Wagner Group internet site says Russia needs hundreds of thousands more troops to win in Ukraine. The current reports have Ukraine methodically pushing Russian forces out of Kharkiv and stopping Russian forces elsewhere.
Putin is clearly facing severe limits in manpower, production and morale.
The current situation is agonizing for Ukraine and painful for Russia. Maybe Putin's strategy is to maintain Ukraine's agony until it's forced into an armistice he can trumpet as a victory.
If they're having this problem when they're supposed to have a million men in uniform, then could that "million men in uniform" been mostly bluster?
Howdy @eschatologyguy,
Those 'million' men include air force, rocket force, navy, etc. It is pathetically lacking in infantry.
