“Whether you like it, or not, history is on our side. We will bury you,” he said quoting former USSR leader Nikita Khrushchev.

Russian politician Dmitry Medvedev said on Tuesday Russia could have a right to go to war with NATO.

    Idk, China might see the spread of resources as a good opportunity to try an invasion of Taiwan.

      Maybe, Xi seems just sane enough not to try, but who knows. China and Russia can’t really win against NATO though they make things harder. India likely hates China enough to join NATO as well.

      Of course we are talking nuclear armed countries so everyone loses is possible.

      Putin made his move because Xi sounded like he was going to go at the same time.

      Xi was closing on HK and planned to switch immediately to Taiwan, even started the domestic pivot, then his navy told him they needed at least 5 years (honestly its more like 15, they are just starting carrier flight ops on the Liaoning and their newer ones aren’t shaken down yet).

      Putin had made his preparations, Xi hinted he might go anyway once the west was distracted.

      If daddy z hadn’t stayed in kyiv history would look really bad right now.
