  2. What are your cringe emojis for if you're stating a fact?

  3. Now everybody knows what Biden and Congress gave Zelenskyy for Christmas. Some people can't wait to show off their new toys.

  4. Hopefully, the tanks will contribute to Ukraine's success on the battlefields. Germany is also in the process of expanding its own military power. If the claim that the European Union is "German-controlled" is true, then the new global superpower will be in Berlin rather than Beijing or Moscow.

  5. The defense contracts and new purchases of weapons system was the economic motivation for expanding NATO eastward. Georgia, Ukraine, Finland, Sweden, and most importantly, Germany will now be new markets for American-made weapons. Most of the older Soviet/Russia-made will probably be donated to Ukraine in exchange for the US-made newer technology.

  6. Whoever made that thumbnail, should've realized that it looks like severed heads on dirt rather than trenches. There's already enough tragedies coming from Ukraine. We don't need beheadings as click bait.

  7.  @Michael-yg4zm  America and NATO finished it. Putin blundered by starting a war that Russia wasn't capable of winning.

  8.  @balajeepratham8200  India can be whatever it wants to be, but if you're going to be compared against America in a disrespectful manner, as if India is somehow superior, then you're going to get some hostile responses.

  9.  @suburbanyobbo9412  If there is no timeline, the when was the 300 million doses supposed to be delivered since they've already been approved by drug regulators?

  10. That's why the sanctions and economic warfare should become permanent. There's no reason Russia should return to normal relations and trade with the West.

  11. Good job, Putin! How will your bots and troll spin this one? Was this always part of the grand strategy to open the EU market to US-LNG, while you pivot to Asia where they ask fewer questions about human rights and climate change? You didn't expect Cheniere Energy, Inc. of Texas, a company whose trade symbol is literally (LNG), to find a way to profit from the War in Ukraine?

  12. Ammunition and artillery manufacturing is being ramped up in Pentagon-owned and contract manufacturing plants in the US.

  13.  @tigerdyn  How can NATO drag Ankara down when it's part of the strongest military alliance in the world?

  14. I wish it occurred much sooner, but I'm glad the West is no longer terrified of an assertive Germany and European Union. Moscow has been interfering in the internal politics of the US, EU, and UK with near impunity. The only advantage Moscow has comes from the fact that it isn't a liberal democracy with free media and an independent judiciary. The short-term market shocks, sanctions, and negative political coverage do make it harder for a politician in the West to remain in power, but the short-term pain is worth the objective of eliminating the Kremlin's ability to hold the West hostage.

  15. Mainland China has made incredible economic growth. I'm not sure why they're risking complete destruction, economic ruin, and a direct war with the US rather than just maintaining status quo. They are powerful, but that military they bought from Alibaba hasn't been tested, and is not ready for a war with an actual superpower that's mostly known for war profiteering and imperialism.

  16.  @12villages  You can appreciate the accomplishments of the Soviet/Russian Space Program, without downplaying the achievements of NASA, the US Air/Space forces, and its international partners. Both the US and Soviets specialized in different areas of space exploration and rocket technology. The Soviet Union was first to use rocket technology for peaceful purposes and develop the world first satellite, human in space, and space program. The US was much more militant and suspicious of Moscow's intention since the space race occurred simultaneously with the nuclear arms race and development of ICBMs.

  17. Events would have unfolded differently had the Kremlin not made this conflict into a proxy war with the West. Even if Ukrainian had decided to seek an economic and military partnerships with the US and NATO, the majority of Ukraine would still have had closer ties to former Soviet Republics with large Slavic populations than to the West.

  18.  @Andronichuk  It's a good decision based on ethical grounds, but doing business in Russia is getting too risky for Western-based companies. They can clearly see that the Russian government and corrupt oligarchs will start seizing foreign-own assets as retaliation and an attempt to counter the US-led sanctions and economic warfare.

  19. It can be maintained. Pakistan is a nuclear power, too. The US and Russia are nearly touching in Alaska, and for forty years split Germany without triggering an unwinnable direct conflict. These border disputes between Indian and China aren't using firearms are military weapons (at least they weren't a few years ago). It's kind of hard to escalate to a nuclear war when they're still using sticks and stones to fight.

  20. Since military training is always lagging, they should begin training Ukrainian pilots on F-16s now.

  21. Welcome to NATO!

  22. Yup. A nuclear retaliation after a conventional war battlefield defeat is "evil" and won't change the inevitable outcome.

  23. They've tried it and it didn't turnout well for China.

  24. A German-led European Union is usually overlooked as an emerging superpower. It's probably more suited than China to counter the United States hegemony and the unchallenged ability to project power around the globe. The biggest strength is that the US and EU are neither hostile competitors nor adversaries, and US foreign policy and security arrangements encourage the expansion of the EU versus the Truman Doctrine of "containment." The similarities, shared values, and foreign interests are what kept the early 20th-century relationship between the British Empire and the United States competitive but peaceful. You can never tell what could happen in the future, but I'm sure the US would much rather share a world with a capitalist and democratic superpower than a communist and autocratic one.

  25. Good point. That statement should be retracted ASAP before the Russian tanks roll in on behalf of the "Russian-speaking Latvians."

  26.  @iggy5347  Use numbers. Are you from China? Where are you from because you're not understanding english and using copy-paste like a CCP bot? I'm not in Australia.

  27.  @iggy5347  China's largest trading partner are the United States and the European Union. We all know how international economics and trade work. You weren't using real numbers. You just said China has an 18 trillion economy. That's still smaller than the US and EU. It's the growth rates that made China stand out. That was from government spending and borrowed money. The growth has slowed down and now China is trying to reopen with millions of Covid-19 cases. The country clearly has problems and its too risky to bet on. It's being challenged by nearly every other major country because of Xi.

  29.  @xosmokey  How is that related to my post? Did you read my comments as a review of EU membership procedure? I'll definitely look into the rules, but they aren't relevant to my post.

  30.  @imagineai1035  The religion is an important part of who the people are, their heritage, and their humanity. If you can use it to help give them to strength to overcome this disaster, and not use it to condemn or alienate anyone, then use every tool available to get through this.

  31. It's not the technicians fault. Russia could have shared the scientific information on how to not crash.

  32. Imagine what would happen if Zelenskyy went rogue and took over all of Russia and West Europe with the new weapons systems. He might have the strongest and most-effective standing army in Europe.

  33. They already have munitions factories now. Russians are too busy targeting civilian infrastructure.

  34. He's a liar with no credibility.

  35. The "NA" in NATO is "North Atlantic," and it was an anti-communist alliance that keeps the US in Europe to counter Moscow. The US and its Pacific allies are confronting Beijing, not NATO.

  36. Screw Assange and Snowden. Navalny has balls to face the Tsar. He's not hiding in embassies or in exile smearing feces on walls playing crazy.

  37.  @dukeofwellington8898  I heard that same claim made against Biden in the US. Now it's the WHO?

  38.  @1j9hd97  Look up the definition of "truth." You're using an opinion as undisputed fact.

  39.  @RS-vz8xd  I already watched it, and nothing being said here has anything to do with the PBS documentary. Nutcases are the ones making claims not backed by science, evidence, or data, and stating them as undisputed fact. I don't like the way the CCP handled it either, but making up conspiracy theories won't make them be held accountable.

  40.  @RS-vz8xd  It's not controlled by the CCP. The US has far more influence on WHO, UNAids, and every other international organization. There's a smart way to contain China and its ambition to be replace the West's dominance. Making them out to be a boogyman and mad scientist is not the best way. We already know the virus originated in China. It was from unsanitary conditions, not a bio-weapons are something engineered in a lab. That's a waste of time and a distraction. That's like saying they have a futuristic weapon to travel back in time.

  41.  @joethorn5015  The nuclear threats won't work. You're going to have to come up with something better or just admit the war is lost. Russia has lost wars before without using nukes and this looks like another repeat.

  42. Fortunately, Sunak and the British government are on the right side of history and taking leadership.

  43. 🤔🤔If only there was another nuclear superpower located on a different continent with decades of experience confronting Moscow and it had military bases, warships, aircraft carriers, submarines, and mutual-security agreements with nations strategically placed to contain Russia and China's expansion, then it could serve as a deterrent and an even bigger bully to stop Putin from acting with impunity. If such a nation existed with a direct hotline to the Kremlin, they could just pick up the phone and give vague threats to retaliate.

  46. I do wish you a speedy recovery. Fortunately, the worst of the pandemic in America has passed for now.

  47. The solution for the liberal democracies should be the creation of Indo-Pacific NATO-like military alliance and trade organization with equal partners in a Anglo-American alliance and including the world's largest democracy, India. Despite the disagreement between the West and India concerning Moscow and the War in Ukraine, countering a more assertive CCP would be is a shared interest. Mainland China is definitely not an enemy. They're a geopolitical competitors and are returning to the status of being a hostile adversary of the US. If the democracies want US-protection and a lasting peace, they should unite. Without the US, Japan, and India in the alliance, the CCP would continue bullying the smaller nations and using economic warfare as coercion against nations in the Indo-Pacific.

  50.  @thisiscrazy4122  The number/stat to which you're referring is called "excess deaths," and most developed countries already have the figures available.
