In the Article, " Ukrainian Strikes Into Russians Border Towns Compound Putin's Troubles" the war Russia waged on Ukraine seems to be turning in favor of Ukraine. Ukraine has been able to push Russians so far back that Russian civilians are now beginning to feel first hand effects of the war. The Ukrainian forces have been able to drive Russians out of previously occupied areas of Ukraine, and what the Ukrainian forces have found may spark talks of war crimes. Mass graves of civilians have been uncovered in Ukrainian liberated cities. It will sure be interesting to see the repercussions Russia might face if it is found out that they did in fact commit war crimes. China and India, Continuous trade partners of Russia, have finally started to show a little concern to the strength of this ongoing war. What is interesting of this dynamic is that China, India, and Russia are partners in a sense of the word and two of the three are questioning the sustainability of Russia. This could lead to numerous problems in Russian future all regarding the continuing of Russia as a nation. Solidarity is not a sustainable practice as seen in North Korea, a peninsula. Russia, I believe, would fail to maintain isolation from the world. It will be interesting to see how the conflict plays out, as well as how the rest of the world reacts.
