@mudshovel289 do you even live in SEA? I lived here for a long time and I understand that everyone had issue with everybody, not just CN. Indonesia has scuttled Chinese, Thai, Philippines, and Malay, Vietnam fishing vessels for "illegal fishing"
Likewise so has Malay, Vietnam, and others too, capturing, sinking, or scuttling each other's ships.
Our problem is not just with CN, it's with everybody. And as the comment above said, it's a geopolitical miracle because we never let those issue (which can usually be a casus beli) we just let it slide and focus on what really matters, such as economic development and mutual cooperation where it works. And CN has been the economic patron of SEA. So don't try to sell us that BS.

@yippeeki-yay490 any proof to that? Last i check, india, china, turkey, hungary, and south america is ramping up their energy purchases. And the reason for the increasing ruble value is due to increase in export but huge decrease in imports. You're saying it's getting traded less? Both india, china, africa, and recently, turkey has had a deal to do purchase using national currency only. If anything, it's the usd and euro getting traded less, and it's value reflected by that.

@yippeeki-yay490 showcase of the bayraktar, m777, himars getting destroyed, or a showcase of javelin getting plundered?
China just extended military tech partnership with russia. So does iran. Turkey, one of the most important and strategic nato members, just started partnership of with russia to improve their drones when erdogan went to sochi.
Who's buying western equipment? Ah yes, poland bought a few himars. Lets see, what else getting sold... Nvm, cant find any. Taiwan deal is not finished so it doesn't count.
And guess what? Himars, the "game changer" because it destroyed an unimportant bridge that the russian had deployed several poontoons around it? Russia had the tornado s system, which is similar in specification and accuracy but had longer reach (50% more, in fact. For the medium missiles, himars can reach 80km. Tornado s can reach 120). Unlike western missiles which are bulky and cant reach crap 🤣🤣🤣

@yippeeki-yay490 it's impressive how everything you just said is wrong. Countries are ditching the Petrodollar. They don't want theirs to be confiscated because they did something the US didn't like. Nobody cares about sweden and nato. They are militarily insignificant. And them ditching the kurdish refugees by sending them to turkish dungeon says a lot about their value of human rights. It's human rights but only when it suits them. And they are still pretty much on the turkish hook, if they try to do anything to undo the agreement, turkey can still pull the plug and block their membership. Hungary and serbia has agreed to keep buying russian oil and gas in increased volume. Germany has been pretty staunch on their gas issue, look where that got them. Protest everywhere, latest one there's a video where habeck trying to tell people why they should stay to their choice of not buying russian gas, and he was jeered and called warmongers. In another tour the people are shouting for them to open nordstream 2. The people and the leadership clearly have disagreement. And look where that got bojo, draghi, and the other one in baltic countries. They all stepping down because of the economic crisis they created.
Comedic actor only become a hero in a mainstream western media, everyone know he's a clown that had a stash of millions overseas, and a cottage both in the US and the UK. Recently, even western media is reporting on his corruption. Amnesty international has condemned ukraine use of human shield. Cbs has called them out for corruption. Both parties are getting cancelled by people like you for bringing out the truth because it hurts your feelings.
What sanctions? Russia has managed to get a workaround for it in many places. Mir payment system is now accepted in china, africa, turkey, uae, india, several european countries, and many other countries as well as several countries that are going to do business with russia in the future such as countries in south america and southeast asia. You are one of those people who thinks that europe and the US is the only country to do business with and the rest of the world is insignificant. That's colonialist logic.
Russia future is bright. The economy reflects it. But the crisis in europe and US is very apparent, there's no way to hide it. The white house just changed the definition of recession to hide the recession they are in, but people aren't stupid. You'll probably buy it tho, considering how much msm crap you are regurgitating right now. Russian military is also very capable, it is shown by how much western equipment they have destroyed. If they are waging war the way US did in iraq (indiscriminate shelling, shot every citizen) ukr would have fallen a long time ago. And civilian casualties reflect that. So far russia only has caused 4k civilian casualties, compared to 1 million by the US invasion of iraq.

@isn0t42 no it is cheaper, they are purchasing it at a discount, not a massive discount like what they are giving ukr pre 2014, but a discount nonetheless. However, direct transportation through the pipeline is what makes it especially cheap; even the one transiting through ukr, which transit fee is mostly covered by gazprom.
Gas from other sources are either inadequate in supplies, or have a very long transit by ships, and are usually in the form of liquified natural gas, which is way more expensive and is not very useful for chemical manufacturing (especially fertilizer) because it's pure liquified methane. Yes, the EU still buys Ru LNG, but it only helps a few sectors even with a subsidy, and is still much more expensive than natural gas, especially when Ru are done giving discount.
Slovakia and Hungary still get their natural gas through the pipeline, until recently when ukr shuts off the transit.

@Bishop46066 oh please. Bohorodychne is a small settlement, meanwhile the kherson counteroffensive just never happened. In fact, they have changed it into a kherson counter defensive because they lacked troops and equipment to advance. Avdiivka and bakhmut, a major town, is being grinded down and on the process of being captured, while they are suffering huge losses in kherson front. Another himars has been destroyed, as well as m777 (with photographic evidence) and a major storage for himars missile has also been destroyed (with video evidence), something the ukr is running out of.
Russia future is bright, African leaders is lining up to shake russian hand aside from a few ex british and french colony. South america is heavily tilting to russia. Turkey, a nato ally, just accepted a ruble-lira trading partnership. China, a global industrial complex, is russian ally. Asia is also on the side of russia, aside from singapore, south korea and japan. Funny that south korea didn't want to meet with pelosi after the taiwan provocation, despite being an ally. And there will be no war with the country you mentioned, unless they are the one to start the provocation. And those countries are facing crisis on it's own, it'll be too busy to start a war. This war is a result of western provocation in the first place, just like they did in taiwan few days ago.
166 days is a short time, compared to how long the US took fighting in iraq and afghan.
It's weird that you have a more defeatist mood now lars, you were one of the staunchest "ukraine is winning" commenters a few months ago. Looks like you did your research after all. Don't worry, it won't be long now. Come autumn (maybe even sooner) ukr will declare surrender, may even be unconditional. Then you can cry in the shower and came out as a new man. Or women. Whichever your liberal gender you feel like having.

@Bishop46066 my sources are independent sources, as well as film evidence and a map made by pro western sources. Your "sources on the ground" argument is not compelling, because it can be worse than russian propaganda in terms of validity, as well as verifiability. Russia has a car industry. Both personal car, public transport, military transport and cargo trucks. Kamaz, lada, uaz, gaz and more. Look up "russian automobile manufacturer" on wikipedia. A while ago russia just donated and sold busses to nicaragua. Have i mentioned russian airplane industry is also going well? And anything that can't be produced locally can be acquired from china, turkey, iran, middle east, and asia. Like, good god man, where do you even source your info...
Then you proceed to speculate on russian future, despite the fact is pointing otherwise. Brics is expanding, new global reserves currency is being formed, mir payment system is taking root with any country that's doing business with russia, discarding swift payments. Dedollarization is progressing well especially after the US provocation of china (china dont want usd to plummet due to economic reason but now i doubt they cared much. They can take a bit of economic pain for better future) Meanwhile eur is reaching parity with usd due to inflation and economic crisis. And sweden, your beloved country, just signed a death warrant by joining nato. Not because of russia, but because it's a sinking ship, economically. This, is not a speculation, it's based on available data and supported by western economist. can the EU save itself? I have no doubt they can. But they can kiss goodbye to generations of decadence and comfort of a high living standards. It will be a slightly better 3rd world country

@Bishop46066 yes, i am well aware of the terrorists attack by ukranian saboteurs. Considering these are the same people that bombed their army pow camp as well as a nuclear power plant and dropping illegal petal mines in civilian areas, why should i be surprised. Meanwhile more and more ukranians are moving to russian controlled region to avoid conscription. Also it's kinda funny that you kept bringing up about the bridge like the rest of western media. The russian forces had repaired the antonovsky bridge, but they are also deploying several poontoon bridge around it, so it's really not an issue. Those trained troops? The training in UK is not adequate, it's barely enough for troops to survive (4 weeks of training, really?) and it cant even replace the loss they are suffering. Also they are running out of men of serving age to train that they upped the age limit to 70. In perspective, the US and canada already had tons of instructors on the ground since 2015. If they are effective, the ukranian would have won by now. But like you said, it's been 166 days. 166 days of constant defeat. And elensky had done another address, saying the situation is desperate, about a while after his infamous vogue photoshoot.
I have no doubt that your prediction of russian and sweden future is about as accurate as your prediction of ukranian victory.

@Bishop46066 see? That's the kind of stuff i talked about. Apparently your "nationalist media" is the most trustworthy sources ever. And it is not dangerous to speak the truth in russia, like, you don't even live here. How did you know? Youe "nationalist media" told you that? War commentary sources like military summary, which is reporting about russian military movement is still active despite there was an attempt to keep the info hush hush on the russian activity, the channel run by foreigners like 1420 is still running, despite asking "dangerous" questions on the street of Moscow. The only thing ever came out of you is speculation on russia based on your own personal prejudice against russian. Something you've admitted in the past comments, as well as statement like "me and my nationalist friends" etc. You are neck deep in your own bias that you won't accept any truth even if it's placed right in front of your eyes. I've disproved untold amount of your biased info by now, something you dont even try to argue because you realize you have no proof to back up your false claims, and i dont feel like doing it anymore. In fact, considering your severe lack of reliable information sources as well as biased personal beliefs, i wonder who's being censored to a truthful information here, because you do have symptoms of a brainwashed people.

@Bishop46066 "nationalist friends all over the world" glad to know! My most reliable source of information is my uncle's best friend's antivax mom but I've been thinking that my flat earther friend might also be a reliable source!
Ooo i see so it's personal for you, which explains your confirmation bias approach to anything russian related. You just have a strong hate against anybody russian, and that's sad. You even admit being nationalist right wing. Amazing. Do you support bandera ideology also? I'd like to know. Maybe start massacring poor russian farmer you never met in your life?
Russian low innovation? Sad to hear. Telegram is russian messaging app that even ukranian still used to this day. Italian parmesan cheese? We've produced those locally now. McD? Since it left, my life had been in shambles. I miss the american obese diet so much. The new McD replacement offers the same food, but i eat along with the containers that has the brand so it doesn't taste the same. And guess what? Stable gas price, stable oil price, stable food stock and price, anything imported has local equivalent for half the price. We are so bad at innovating that our air defense system happens to be the best in the world. We are so bad at innovating that our economy remain stable, unlike the sanction regime enactor. I've said it before and im gonna say it again, if germany is so innovative, why cant they innovate a way out of the current economic crisis and resorts to coal?
And guess what? Sweden took in a bunch of terrorists and criminals that now occupy the governmental position, that turkiye had to intervene and ask for extradition to save your people, but i guess you're too much of a woke nationalist to realize that. Sweden best cleanest country amiright?

@Deno2100 everyone knows the danger and effects of climate changes, but we simply have no reliable alternatives for the moment. This is not something we can rush. Ditching hydrocarbon all at once may save the climate, but it will hurt the livelihood and create an economic disaster. Look at europe today, a small cut of 30% source of hydrocarbon from russia already led to a catastrophic socioeconomic in europe. Ditching it completely will destroy the society we have built, sending us back to barbarism and conflicts, which stems progress and transition to green energy completely, which will then lead us back to hydrocarbon, for no gains.
If the WEF agents are as good as they say they are, they should not have told us to ditch hydrocarbon; they should provide us an alternatives by investing heavily on promising green tech like the fusion reactor or more durable wind turbine that does not produce too much E-waste on both production and maintenance like we currently have. But they don't, their goal is to make money and push for more control, not losing money.

@RonBerg1 not sure why you said russian aircraft havent done much, they fly hundreds of sorties mission each day (the number is 200-300 according to new york times). Aircraft like SU 25, SU 27, SU 30, SU 35, TU 160, and to a limited extend, SU 57, all have done their parts. SU 25 fly directly over the combat zones, while more advanced aircraft like the SU 35, SU 57 and a dedicated bomber like TU 160 usually carries long range guided missiles and fire them from behind the lines (tho not always, TU 160 in particular has flown deep into ukr territories to hit distant ammo depot/repair station, that according to latest reports, any damaged equipment had to be serviced in poland, because russian keeps striking repair station in ukr). There are tons of video taken from the missile camera hitting ukrane ammo depot, and whenever Konashenkov's report says "using air based missiles" this is what he meant. Ukr had done a dozen offensives towards kherson region, and each time they were repelled thanks to air support. If you want to see a video of russian aircraft in ukrane, go to odo puiu event channel, he seems to have a fascination with airplanes. Channel like french foreign legion in the ussr also had some videos of the war.

@RonBerg1 i do follow quite some indian channels. Amit segupta, wion, tfi global, free democracy, and more. Turkish media too, like TRT. I don't speak arabic. But I've seen arabic skit making fun of biden. I also follow chinese media like cctv, ctgn, shanghaieye, then also south american media like telesur. All of these media condemns the west and it's proxies, not russia. If you think i live in an echo bubble, you are wrong. I follow many media, including western one like bbc, france24, cnn, nyt, bloomberg, ap, dw, reuters. I know that venezuela aircraft was just seized by argentina due to pressure from collective west, the excuse they are using is that it carries iranian signatures. Argentina is neither part of nato or EU, so sanctions shouldn't apply. The only thing i can say about the west is that it impose it's rules upon others yet do anything it wants using weak justification. US had illegally occupied northern syria for years and stole their oil simply because they dont like the leadership. Now why are there no sanctions for such blatant violation syrian sovereignty and international law? It's rules for thee but not for me. Collective west is a hypocritical, thieving colonialist power that impose it's rules on anybody it wants but do whatever it want regardless of international law. Have you read anything on rules based order? Nothing within it's pages mention anything regarding international law. They make the rules and it applies only to others.

@RonBerg1 ok, i guess we can discuss this in the future when it all came to pass. Bear in mind I'm not the only one saying what i said. Many analysts had predicted that the western hegemony is already on its way out. In fact, people had been predicting this since 2019, about the coming of a multipolar world that works on the basis of "law based order" instead of western "rule based order". The future is in the east, exactly in asia. The whole economic weaponization which is totally against the rules of the free market (that the west themselves popularized) had backfired badly and it worked greatly into the russia/china favor. So much so that the UK had relaxed the sanction a few days back, something the western media mostly kept quiet about. Which is why you see the US sowing chaos in ukrane, taiwan, and now kosovo. They are trying to stop this advancement towards the multipolar world through the great reset. This is not a wild conspiracy theory, go to the World Economic Forum official youtube channel. You'll see for yourself.
There is no need for me to join. I've fulfilled my mandatory service, and if i do enlist, by the time i finished training the war would already be over. Not that there's any guarantee they'll sent me anyway, russia had 1 million standing army and around 2 million reserves. The one deployed in ukrane numbered 250k. That's a quarter of standing army, rotated every few months. This is not ukrane that train it's troop for 2 weeks (some only got 2 days) before being sent to the frontline. Mark my words, this war would be over before winter. If it doesn't I'll come back here and i will tell you how wrong i was and you were right all along.

@GrandmasterFU666 You don't need a court of law to maintain trust. If you think so, then there's something very wrong with you. And i doubt befriending people like you is a good idea. A guarantee is given, if one is unable to fulfill that, for whatever reason or excuse, then there is no obligation to trust them either. If they said they wont expand nato but did anyway, then their words that they won't wage war on russia is not to be trusted either. So why should we sit idly by and let them do what they want that goes against our interest?
You then touched the fact that russia continues supporting the separatist. Of course we do, your army didn't pull back to give the donbas the peace and autonomy they asked for. So why should we? We're not going to sit idly by when ukr army slaughters our kinsmen. And guess what, if ukr leave donbas alone, the LPR/DPR would have stayed where they were because even russia will not support any idea of expansion of donbas!
The budapest memorandum is about trading nukes in exchange for protection, nothing else! Nothing about crimea, nothing about donbas. Based on your logic, then russia can do it because it's not in the document! But even if we step back and accept the idea, ukr decision to join nato is on it's own a threat to the protectors (which includes russia) when the budapest alone is enough to guarantee ukr safety. What kind of protectorate threatens their protector? And if the protector's security is threatened by the protectorate, then it's the protectorate who dishonors the agreement signed and thus we are not obliged to follow them either!
