the finland diddler doesn't get that putin's quote is about how they are determining ukraine's losses and says nothing about russia's losses that can be used to determine how many losses russia has. putin is saying what many have said - ukraine's losing a ton of soldiers at an appalling rate in part because they can't patch up people who get hurt. if you get a fixable wound in a ukrainian trench, you're as good as dead. if that happened to an american they'd get fixed up without a problem. he's explaining that this misunderstanding may have something to do with the bigger than expected need for soldiers in hoholstan. russia knows exactly how many soldiers the hohols have at any given time. that's the other part that he's letting you know.
