Summary
Peter Zeihan analyzes Ukraine’s attack on Russia’s Samara space complex using the domestically produced Flamingo missile. He argues this strike cripples Russia’s space program, forcing reliance on China and exposing its industrial base to further destruction. Zeihan predicts Russia will lose its status as a technological power and face severe declines in resource exports by year’s end.
