#Putin ’s main #war resource is not #oil or money but the expendable human lives of #Russia ’s poorest regions. While weapons and money can be replenished, the endless supply of #soldiers from places like #Tyva and #Buryatia ensures no #protests in #Moscow or real social tension. The only way to end this war is through #Ukraine ’s increased #weaponry, not #sanctions or social unrest, because human life in Russia’s periphery is already worth nothing.
