America is just 250 years old.

France was a world power for hundreds of years.

Anyways they're all the same.

French, British, Germans, Italians, Portuguese and virtually all Europeans make up the USA.
That's my point. For that hundred they were super power they did worse

Unlike you, I’m not anti west or anti Russia. I’m definitely against Israel aggression in the Middle East.

I’m also a pro multipolar world where Russia put up a serious feat that they can rival the hegemony.

China has been a lot more successful in that regard, Russia seems to live on past glory, but they can do better. Lol

Let me remind everyone that in the 2 days since the ceasefire started, there are at least 200 innocent civilians that are alive now that wouldn't have been.

This points to the concept of responsibility and why the Hegemony can never be allowed to be the unipolar power.
No one should.
Absolute power corrupts.

You guys underrate Russia alot. Have you ever been to China? Do you know that Russian scientists and experts are presently in China helping them build next generation stuff?

Do you know that China sends their scientists to Russia to gather knowledge on many modern technologies.

Whenever you guys hear about Russia, the only thing that comes to your mind is the Soviet Union. An old dilapidated country with nothing going on for them. I urge you to visit Russia and see for yourself.

You'd be shocked to find no single difference between Orenburg or Krasnodar and Amsterdam/London. They basically look the same in architecture. Third tier cities in Russia look exactly like the top cities in America. I call them third tier due to their sparse population.


Without Russia, there would have been no BRICS awareness. Russia's aggressive de-dollarization push is why today many countries are now trading in their local currency. Why BRICS is now expanding.

China is powerful yes but only economically. They're too docile and left with them there would have been no alternative to SWIFT or other critical western technologies.

Militarily, China is still heavily reliant on Russia. Even in some other critical sectors.

If Russia is living in past glory then what would you say about the US & Europe? Already Dead?

China is not docile, Chief.

Centuries of mass bloodshed and destruction are enough for any nation to want to primarily focus on society building and development.

Now they just want to grow so the Chinese people can live better lives in relative peace.

It would be ultimate folly on anyone's part to mistake China's calmness for weakness. Even the US itself never contemplates such assumptions.

Modified: And no Chief, China is not heavily reliant on Russia militarily. That Russia has had the stage to display military might today, shouldn't be a yardstick for you to make such an assertion.

Because China imports about 80% of its Turbofan engines from Russia alongside the technology required for its operations, now translates to ALL of Chinese weapons?

⚔NATO’s Rutte on Russian incursions into NATO airspace:

As long as they don’t pose a threat, we will gently guide them out of our airspace.

It’s a proportional response — we are so much stronger than the Russians.

If we were weak, maybe we’d shoot them down immediately, but being stronger, our reaction is proportionate.

Take comfort in the fact that NATO is 25 times bigger than the Russian economy.

Our military is infinitely superior to the Russian military.

When it comes to our air force, the Russians cannot even stand in the shadow with these MiG-31s, or whatever they call them.

Dont argue. You have Google, look it up and see if that "Turbofan" is all China buys from Russia.

Chinese Jets, AWACS, Tankers, Air defense systems, Missiles, even some satellites are all licensed Russian copy.

Even Submarines.

Like I said, continue underrating Russia, they'll continue surprising you.

You think say na today Russia start this military business?

I'm not underrating China but the thing with China is that they do not have the time to develop and build things from scratch. By the time they're done doing that, others would have moved up to the next level.

The best way for them to catch up is by copying others work and improving on it, by starting half way. That is what they did.

Jets, ships, transport aircrafts, air defense systems, radars and many more, either copied from Russia or from the US. But mostly Russia.

80% of Chinese weapons, if you dig deeper on their origins, they all trace back to Russia/Soviet designs.

⚔"If Russia attacks NATO, Kaliningrad and Sevastopol will be annihilated."

In the event of a direct confrontation with Russia, NATO would "wipe out Kaliningrad and Sevastopol within the first few hours," said former U.S. Army Europe commander Ben Hodges.

"If Russia attacked Poland in 2025 the same way it attacked Ukraine, NATO’s air and ground forces would destroy it.

You can be sure — Kaliningrad would be wiped out within the first few hours. In the first hours, Kaliningrad would be gone, all Russian military targets destroyed. Any Russian military facilities in Sevastopol as well."

⚔Zelensky has stripped Odessa mayor Trukhanov of Ukrainian citizenship after accusing him of having Russian citizenship. He has also been automatically sacked from his post as mayor due to loss of citizenship.

Zelensky tasked the Ukrainian army with setting up a military administration for the city of Odessa.

Trukhanov denies being a Russian citizen and emphasizes that he is sanctioned by Russia.
