US arms advantage over Russia and China threatens stability, experts warn

[Viet]

Are you kidding ? If Japan and Germany defeated Russia in decisive wars like WW II, the world today would be living under Japanese and German boots, not the other way around. If other European countries decisively defeated Russia in wars, we would not see Russia as big as it is today.

why WW2? there are WW1, and lots of other wars Russia was involved. ever heard of battle of Tshushima? lots of countries are big in size without winning wars. Mexico, Argentina, Brasilia, India, Russia, etc.
little South Korea Gdp is approaching giant Russia Gdp. I am betting the hardcore koreans can beat the russians to dusk.

Bro, the last war Russia won is 300 years ago. As response because you said nobody can’t beat Russia.

Errr.... A certain great patriotic war of 1940s comes into mind that started with a certain operation Barbarossa.

Are you delusional ? South Koreans beating Russians ? South Koreans are only good playing K-pop.

Russia didn't exactly get defeated in WW I, they withdrew from the battles because of its internal revolution.

Tshushima war with Japan wasn't decisive and consequential for Russia, it's Baltic fleet lost because it stretched too far and thin to the Pacific in those days. The result of the battle was Russia only lost some interests in China's Northeast. All the wars Russia lost weren't really decisive and very consequential, otherwise Russia wouldn't be that big and the world would be very different today.

USSR
Russia is just a part of.
Russia civilization originated from kievruss, the region of Kiev. Russia without Ukraine is just a barbaric uncivilized eastern folks, much like the Manchus to the Chinese.

USSR does not win that war without help from the British Empire and USA

Post in thread 'Tim Cook explains why Apple chooses China for manufacturing in viral video. Elon Musk agrees'

Sep 7, 2024

Apple CEO Tim Cook addressed common misconceptions surrounding the tech giant's decision to manufacture in China, offering insight into the real reasons behind the company's reliance on the country.

Contrary to the popular belief that companies flock to China for cheap labour, Cook said that this narrative is outdated. "The popular conception is that companies come to China because of low labor costs. I'm not sure what part of China they go to, but the truth is China stopped being the low labor costs country many years ago," Tim Cook stated, clarifying that the decision...

Nope.

I watched Tim Cook say this 6 or 7 years ago, he is right very well.

The cheap labor he said there, correctly, is that manufacturers like China for providing cheap vocational trained students who can do tooling labor from their non college educated class. The college graduates considered higher educated do not have much opportunity.

China created a big blue collar vocational labor pool that know how to handle tooling needed for high end electronic products, these vocational graduates are what attracted these US tech companies to outsource to China. They can work those western designed tools.

Win win for Western corporations to have a State fund vocational training for them to use as operators of their high end tools for a cheaper expense.

lOl, We learned that US shipbuilding industry now is so pathetic and now they have to encruite India to build and repaire their warships, and suddenly Indians believe they are the among the top shipbuilders in the world just because their US master seeks India's help for their ships.
over 90% of the global ships now are built in China, of course US needs to get help from every country they can find, cause their shipbuilding industry is basically non existant by now.

South Korean Shipbuilding Industry Faces Threat as China Gains Ground​

SEOUL, Sept. 6 (Korea Bizwire) – In a concerning trend for South Korea’s once-dominant shipbuilding industry, Chinese competitors are rapidly gaining market share, aided by alleged industrial espionage and lenient court rulings in South Korea.

The situation has raised alarms about the potential loss of South Korea’s world-leading position in the sector, particularly in the crucial liquefied natural gas (LNG) carrier market.

Recent data from Clarkson Research, a British shipbuilding and maritime trade...

Well your link just reconfirms what I said, you are manufacturing ships on the lower end of technology, per your link you out manufacturing Korea for LNG tankers, Korea became a leader for LNG only because it was cheaper to have them build gas cans for the cheapest price, it's not because LNG carriers were cutting edge tech, low end tech went from Europe to US to Japan to Korea and now to China, take a guess where it is going to go next?

Lol, Korea's 2% means high end? in statistics it means negligible, it's so funny a way you Indians read and interpret articles.

So What are you trying to say, Korea lost almost all its previous global shipbuiling share to China in less than a decade.

Maybe India and US are doing the high end shipping buildings in the world then, lol.
