Russia is having problems supplying itself with diesel due to how many of their refining capacity has been damaged by Ukraine.

The only effect of this will be an attempt to shift blame from Trump for the shortages and high costs of energy onto Ukraine for daring to defend themselves.

      Unfortunately, Russia like Iran will be able to use dumb missiles and destroy ukrainian energy infrastructure in winter. USA may have doomed Ukraine by not giving patriot missiles when there was a chance.

      Europe is about to experience a winter they haven’t experienced in generations… God speed friends

        Don’t lose hope. Ukraine will survive as long as Europe pays the bills to make up for Ukraine’s crippled economy. Russia works to end this by supporting AfD and National Rally and Reform UK, but European citizens still have an opportunity to prevent that.

          Yes, but Russia was successfully overthrowing liberal democracy long before they invaded Ukraine. Since at least around 2012, if not before.
