Russia - Ukraine war part ll. News and Discussions

Nations are not humans.
They are friends today, enemy tomorrow.

True, but nations are made of humans. Nations are not inanimate objects. Humans dictate what nations do. There's no reason China and Russia be enemies. There's no quarrel. There is no dispute. Russia is big market of Chinese companies. Russia is China's client state. There's an old Chinese saying. Better be friends with your neighbors than be enemies with your neighbors.

Russians are angry because starlink stops working. Why angry on a western platform?
Chinese can do the same. China can stop all electric cars sold to the Russians. Well, at least on paper. but the Chinese will probably not do that. Bad for business.

A lot of Russia's cars are built domestically with Chinese assistance. It's a win win scenario. It's good for the economies of both Russia and China.

That’s true, good for China.
But I really don’t know if that’s good for Russia, too. Putin gives $300 billion a year for war against Ukraine while 24 percent of russians don’t have own toilets.

Only FAB can win urban warfare. A lot of these buildings are too tough even for 500 pound bombs. Only big Soviet era bombs can demolish these really tough buildings.
