I know I'm biased, and always looking for signs that it's going bad for Russia.
But the recent lower personnel losses, seems to me like the Russians are losing steam lately.
Let's hope so. The Russia has a recruitment capacity of 25 000 to 35 000 roaches per month. That makes roughly 1000 per day. That's the amount that keeps the Russia from being able to train any new soldiers. (if the losses are smaller than the recruitment capacity, a reserve can eventually be built and trained. If they are bigger, all recruits go almost immediately to front without useful training)
Everything going above that number means the Russian army decreasing in size. The 1800 per day meant that the size of their military was decreasing by 800 roaches per day. I'd like to see it return to those numbers.
But also, Putin had high hopes regarding Trump. Now it looks like those hopes have been possibly in vain, because it looks plausible that Europe will remain supporting Ukraine even if USA was to completely stop all support. As long as the political situation looked promising for the Russia's ambitions, it made sense throwing much more soldiers to the meat grinder than can be replaced: if the war was to end very soon, the losses would not pose any danger fire the Russia, but every km² they have occupied by that point is a km² of the Russia.
Now that it looks like the war will definitely continue for several months still, Putin cannot afford to let his army diminish in size. What's interesting is that everything over 35 000 per month (or even over just 25 000?) has been permanent losses from the Russian military capacity. That's been a huge change in the last couple of months!
Careful about those numbers. Russia seems to be recruiting around 1000/day according to various western sources. However the personal numbers we are seeing above are casualties, not deaths. If you break a leg you are a causality but that let will heal and so in a couple months are can fight again, if you are then break an arm that is another casualty and you are on the list above again.
The above is important because we have seen many reports of Russia sending injured soldiers on "meat attacks" so there much be some double counting and we don't know how much.
Let pootin become famous as the guy who united and strengthened the EU and initiated Ukraines membership in the core of the European Defense Army. And he could also become famous for being the guy who killed Pootin!
