It's not just bullets Vlad is running out of. What happens when you can't pay your army? What happens to their families if you can't pay them? Vlad got rid of the prisoners in Russia, now it's time to get rid of the old people and vulnerable too, what happens when their pension checks don't arrive? If you thought Ukraine was a horror show...

Russian soldiers stop receiving salaries: complaints coming from all over Russia
The conscripts and contract soldiers in Russia are not paid promised salaries, allowances and social benefits.
Source: Vyorstka, a Russian news outlet
Details: According to the calculations of the news outlet, since the beginning of March 2023, the salaries of the servicemen have been delayed or not paid at all in 52 regions of Russia and in occupied Crimea.
Instead of the promised 195,000 roubles [approx. USD$2,530 - ed.] per month, their accounts receive much smaller amounts.
Judging by the stories of the Russian servicemen themselves and their relatives, frequent problems with payments began in January, but at the same time, individual cases of withholding and non-payment of salaries, allowances and social benefits have been reported at least since November 2022. It is noted that both conscripts and volunteer and contract soldiers face this problem.
Since the beginning of March, dozens of messages about the non-payment have been posted in groups devoted to payments to conscripts on the Russian social network VKontakte.
In the comments, the authors of the complaints are often told that the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation officially transfers salaries from the 10th to the 20th of each month and that delays may be related to the transfer of the serviceman himself to another unit. In these cases, some admit that they received payments later. Others publish payslips from the personal online accounts of servicemen on the website of the Ministry of Defence, in which there are zeros in place of payments.
According to Dmytro Loboyko, the Head of the Regional Studies Centre, people from the Russian hinterland associated "the hope of qualitatively changing their lives, but they had to face reality" with payment for participation in hostilities.

'We Would Have Lost': Did U.S. Lend-Lease Aid Tip The Balance In Soviet Fight Against Nazi Germany?
On February 24, 1943, a Douglas C-47 Skytrain transport aircraft with serial number 42-32892 rolled out of a factory in Long Beach, California, and was handed over to the U.S. Air Force.
On March 12, 1943, the plane was given to the Soviet Air Force in Fairbanks, Alaska, and given the registration USSR-N238. From there, it flew 5,650 kilometers to the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk, one of some 14,000 aircraft sent by the United States to the Soviet Union during World War II under the massive Lend-Lease program.
Months before the United States formally entered the war, it had already begun providing massive military and economic assistance to its Soviet ally through the Lend-Lease program.
From the depths of the Cold War to the present day, many Soviet and Russian politicians have ignored or downplayed the impact of American assistance to the Soviets.

The US would rather vacate from the three. Putin wants Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova, as best friend, China, Iran, North Korea.

You mean the wars we are not fighting anymore? I mean, dang, we did what people wanted us to do and pulled out. No excuses, but dang, some people can't be satisfied by doing what they want.
Regarding your irrelevant reference to those wars in context of the Ukraine war? Yep, they are separate and different from Putin's invasion of Ukraine.
