Nigel Farage was praising Putin’s competence the other day. The competence that has destroyed his functioning army against a nation much smaller, pushed Sweden and Finland into NATO, increased reluctance to appease him from European nations at least (hence why his ridiculous ceasefire demands will not be met, in all likelihood), ruined his economy, made him reliant on China, Iran and North Korea for arms and where the only chance of victory seems to rely on sheer swarming by large population numbers. In a “special operation” that was supposed to last weeks. This seems to be incompetent to me.
