They're going to return with their own artillery and armored vehicles. They will run their own battalions and provide their own troops with the artillery support that they didn't get from their RuZZian comrades. That might be enough to make a significant dent in Ukraine's occupation of Kursk. But more importantly, it will give PooTin some relief, as like you pointed out, RuZZia is running out of armored vehicles and volunteer troops. That's not good news for Ukraine. It is clear that Ukraine could never win a war of attrition even if RuZZia didn't get support from North Korea. Not even with the level of support that Biden provided. The only hope Ukraine has now is one of the following: a) RuZZian economy collapses sooner than expected. All the warning signs are there, including financial instability, high interest rates, high inflation, and the emptying of their sovereign wealth fund. b) Aid to Ukraine significantly escalates. Ukraine gets many more artillery shells and HIMARS, Ukraine gets many more fighter jets (and trained pilots to man them), Ukraine gets many more tanks and Bradleys, and most importantly, Ukraine gets some relief in terms of troops. Although (b) is something that would represent a significant escalation by the West, the West has to realize that North Korea's entry into the war already represents a significant escalation on the part of PooTin. If only we had a world leader who recognized this and had the power to overcome this reality. Too bad we have an Orange Buffoon who thinks overpromising and underdelivering will bring an end to this stupid-ass war. Tenchusatsu
