  2. @John Brower I struggle to get some understanding of how the chinese will conduct their oportunity to become the new hegimon... Needless to say the US, who essentially owns the EU, has laid waste to much of the near east, africa and latin america.. Ruin everywhere... This leaves the world open to china's rapid imperialist [gain of hegimony] expansion... All china essentially has to do is make a better offer than the US...

  3. @christos4426 Trump is doing the most progressive things anyone has done in a long time.

  4.  @Just_chill_bro_its2025  Allmost all of the men are gone and most of the wormen. Buildings and infrastructure, especially in the east is crushed. People will be lucky if they find themselves on the Russian side of the line in Ukraine.

  5.  @ocox8659  It is notable that Russia had the biggest gains on Wall Street during the 90's and recovered. It may take some time but with the trouble Europe is in, it is very possible they will get real and trive in the next twenty years.

  6. In the west we call them Iraq, Afganistan... Lybia, Syria.....

  8.  @viperabyss  Maybe if t the russia hits the dam the ukrainains will have to back off because ukraine, and the collective west, doesn't have the arterlery for a sustained fight at those ranges.

  9.  @viperabyss  Russia has many times the artillery and delivery systems that Ukraine and the collective west has... Not to mention the capabilities of these systems. They have a safety priority with their military personnel and a go slow approach.

  10. The idea that they are demostrating that they can blockaid computer chips seems like a more sobre explanation than the one's that are floated by many in the leftist circles that I listen to... I would hope that nothing bad happens here like it is happening in many parts of the world.

  11. Russia has huge quantities of materials, people and technical skills.... They will find out how to rebuild most of Ukraine which by the end of the war will be called russia.

  12.  @shashankinamdar7670  In twenty years the EU will look very different.... Much of Ukraine will be called russia and will be rebuilt... The part of Ukraine that russia left behind will have a lot of trouble catching up....

  13.  @shashankinamdar7670  Biden has an analogy to the cuban missal crisis. I believe it WAS in the US's best interest to get the missals away from US borders.... There could have been a war over it. Is it in Russia's interest to get a nato army, with missals off of their border?

  14. Arguably DW is full of more nonsense than Lavarov or Putin... What has happened is that russia is occupying much of the russian ethnic areas of the Ukraine, will take the rest of the Donbass soon and is in better shape economically than the west... ... The west has lost economically, millarily and continues to blame all of it's calamities on russia. The west's policies lost and indicate that they can't do an analyisis of a ledger in a candy store.

  15. I was here to see if the EU was going to blame russia for the spike.

  16. The conflict is between US hegimony and anyone who could rival that hegimony.... Now that the hegimony has been broken, the US is acting out self destructive...

  20.  @rockfordfiles5451  From the US it feels like the major parties are going into 1930's like authoritarianism..

  21.  @bg1616  I think Ukraine forfited its right to be a contry when they accepted a color revolution orchistrated by the CIA elevated traditional natzies to political power, dug in millatarily with the help of nato along the russain border and started masecering their own.

  22.  @sergeyb8  A regon on the russian border that is primarily russian speaking that voted to cecede from urkraine and join russia.. There are/were laws on the books to outlaw russian language and there was shelling of civillians.... Bucha, north of Keiv, demostrates that urkraine is more than willing to mass murder it's own people...

  23. Russia is not profiting from the war. It is profiting from the sanctions....

  24. The war has been going on for eight years since the coup in Ukraine... Mostly it is against russians in the east of Ukraine.... Imagine mexico shelling an english speaking area of mexico and outlawing english, the secound most popular language in mexico?

  25. Senseless afgnainsan war for the 'defense' industry.

  26. Siemens is a german company that services the turbines.... Siemens has signed off on the mechaical failures that are not reparable because there is no work around the sanctions against russia as they are now.

  30. I get the impression that there is a point of contention that has to do with money that is not being discussed.

  31.  @Nine-Signs  Very good observations [good catch] My meantor in these issues is Michael Hudson. He wrote 'supper imperialism' in the early seventies which was about establishing a world currency. He got no interest outside of the CIA who used it as an instruction manual and successfully established the dollar as the world medium of exchange. Now-a-days he has interest from the chinese for the same reason... I have bunches of hunches by listening to Michael Hudson... One of them is that the chinese won't sink dollar investors because the want cheap resources from contries that don't use chinese currency yet. The international chinese currency area ain't much yet and if they stiff dollar investors there might be some retaliatory measures that will make dollars harder to come by for chinese companies.

  32. When you have an alterlery piece, small arms base, command post of the occupiers by the hospital then sometimes russian civillians get killed... Russians are reticent to kill other russians.

  33. ​ @jonathanwilson7414  You got to figure that a defending army seeks shelter.... But do they deliberately target one kind of shelter over another? I figure you can make corilations given enough reliable data.... thinking out loud.

  34. ​ @navinkumar6388  Iran captured a UK ship? .... Try not to throw out factual staments that may not be true.

  35.  @bluecardholder  I made bunches of statments... You ask for proof of which statment?

  36.  @bluecardholder  In other news biden's minstry of truth has been disbanded. Sorry, not sorry, that your favorite goverment board is gone... Perahps you are holding it together... I am a former democrat myself.

  37. Many of the sanctions are supporting the russian economy... The real target is the EU and they are suffering.

  40.  @cybourne5910  My impression is that it is leading away from the failed economic and millatary proxy war in Ukraine as well as the general econonic malaize in the west.... The next manufactured mainia...

  45. ​ @benghazi4216  I suppose you are talking about the basic rule of 'law' that bails out criminal cartels and throws the victims of those cartels out on the street.... It is reasonable to expect that that is the basic rule of 'law' because it was instituted by a former editor of the harvard constitutional law review. The money and the 'law' work differently in china.

  46.  @ccchan10  Probably true. Why do they need foreign direct investment anyway when they hold more than a trillion and their export market is in dollars? Do they have a meter that makes more sense than western style GDP and if so why don't they publish it?

  47. Sadly it is US and EU banks vs the rest of the world...
