  1. Many times the Russian populous does seem to be willing to except the claims of their government & meekly bend to it's will more than any on earth. But they are acutely aware that the central government in Moscow takes resources from all parts of Russia. It enriches itself with these riches & gives very little back to the provinces in return. Strangely I don't think it is war, conscription, corruption, or the wild propaganda they are told that will break Russia up. It is simple thievery. It is a shame, they showed such promise after the Soviet breakup.

  2. Many people forget the territorial claims made by China against Vladivostok just months before they announced their 'friendship without limits'. Lord Farquaad was seething in the Kremlin at China. It is amusing to see him think of himself as some great strategist as he is being boxed into a corner by even the strategically lame Chinese. It should be an interesting time in the next few years as Canada becomes the largest country on earth.

  3. I don't foresee any problems retaking Crimea. I know there will be some & not necessarily outlined in this video. The only part that may give some issues it resettlement of the pro russian Ukrainian citizens. Even if this is a part of a peace settlement with the orcs, it will still be very hard to win the peace. Normally resettlement is seen as ethnic cleansing. I think everyone will see the difference but it will have to be done carefully. It is quite possible when that time comes, pro russian Ukrainians will see which side of the bread their butter is one & become good Ukrainians.
