Russia is assumed to have limitless manpower. In reality, its working age male population is eroded: low birthrates, high mortality, mass emigration and catastrophic battlefield losses over 1.3 million since 2022. #StandWithUkraine

What is the true cost of sanctions for Russia? Plummeting oil and gas revenues (with Iran war windfalls offering temporary relief, not structural recovery), punishingly expensive borrowing, and the loss of key markets. It is becoming increasingly difficult for the Kremlin.

Russia has been portraying the EU and Ukraine’s leadership as “warmongers” unwilling to end the war. This is, of course, an outright lie. In reality, it is the Kremlin that has rejected at least seven peace proposals in 2025 alone.
