Xi has played putin like an instrument that he dance well. Cheap gas & oil, Chinese companies are taking over many businesses, dumping low quality & cheap products, Chinese mafia are not far behind with illegal drugs, gambling, human tra🎉fficking & pay off politicians.
This was clear from the start. And India was doing the same: helping an old military ally by buying their oil at a massive discount, while remaining friends with the West. Modi is playing both sides or hedging his bets, but this seems in India's best interest.
Both were invaders and acted like gangsters. China is more like a racketeer. Instead of military invasion, Beijing could simply blackmail Moscow due to economic sanctions.
Debt ???? They paid with resources you know all the resources we don’t have in the west and why are bills are double to treble in the past 3 years Being invaded by immigrants yes it’s GREAT here 🤣🤡👍
3 points. 1 Putin was not dragged into this war, he chose it. 2. Whilst Putin might want to negotiate, it will only be a stalling tactic to allow time to re-build his military and 3. Don't ever underestimate his willingness to use WMD, Putin cares for no one other than himself and if he sees all is lost for him he will take as many people with him as he can.
Just before the invasion I spoke to my friend who is a military strategist in the Finnish army. He just said Ukraine now has a lot of western weapons and it won’t be easy for Russia.
and now the USA’s people are against war - biden will lose to trump, the russians have better manpower & artillery than the ukrainians… so perhaps your finnish friend was wrong 🤔

Ukraine is not just delaying Russia, they completly stoped Russia and we barrely send any help to Ukraine. In 1944 around 4000 planes were used in France, we haven't even sent yet the few dozens that we promised to Ukraine.
A sea invasion of Taiwan would be MUCH more difficult than the land invastion of Ukraine. If you want to understand this better, please read Winston Churchill's excellent tome entitled "The History of the Second World War". He describes clearly why the allies waited and prepared so long for D-day, much to the chagrin of Stalin, but ultimately with success.
@@zipperpillow Wow, are you Chinese? Actually, Churchill was a genius. Please read his book, which I mentioned above, before you form an opinion. Also, please look at what he said about China.
Russia did grab 18% of Ukraine, they didn't win, lost assets they CAN afford (because NATO will never attack them); the Ukrainians did the fighting, the West however failed to mobilize their power, has NO strategy and this is costing Ukraine a lot of civilians and military casualties (totally unneccessary if the West had send enough anti air/missile systems and had put no limits on their usage).
The west is willing to fight its enemy's an invest billions and billions in weaponry , but crazy as it sounds , the west has a huge aversion to victory , I.e. North Korea , Vietnam , Afganistan , Iraq an others. Why is America willing to fight but unwilling to win ?
Peer wars are extremely difficult to fight compared to a western country fighting tribesman. We haven't really seen peer wars since WW2 and we know how that turned out. Russia is learning that a determined educated country isn't going to easily fold. Xi should take note and also remember that Taiwan has a moat around it.
That moat can keep our equipment out too...Taiwan needs to raise its military budget to 10% of GDP immediately. All drones and asymmetric munitions, they also need to produce a domestic fighter platform, and need hundreds of them. We will not be able to get a fraction of equipment there that we did in Ukraine.
Quite simply Putin wanted a huge win grabbing Ukraine in a quick action. His subordinates weren’t brave enough to tell him what he needed to hear, they just told him he wanted to hear. So, he made this big ego boosting grab based on faulty intelligence. In no way was he prepared for a long war. His biggest mistake was completely misreading how Europe would do without his gas AND come together to supply Ukraine with superior weapons. The main result is the world now sees the full result of Russian endemic corruption, poor leadership and the poor quality of weapons.
I have a friend in the Philippines who told me about how China has been saber rattling over there and committing acts of piracy. They have physically assaulted Philippines shipping and taken cargo.

I think you are a little mistaken, there are dozens of large manufacturers and developers of microelectronics in the Russian Federation, including their own microprocessors (Elbrus, Baikal, Elvis), there are large manufacturers of SSD memory, many companies produce components. We also have our own production of thermal imager matrices, electron optical converters, satellite equipment, and our own latest generation lithographic machines. The Soviet Union was the leader of computing technology in the 60s, unique ternary computers were created, Soviet developments formed the basis of the pentium processor. It is always worth pointing out that technologies are not only microelectronics, Russia is the leader of nuclear energy, the production and development of unique alloys, jet engines, the production of ultrahigh-temperature superconductors, space technologies (Almost all of Elon Musk's developments are purchased developments of the USSR and Russia).

Chinese invasion would be pooping where it is eating. Russia is dependent on China for money and goods to circumvent sanctions. Beijing could get more from Moscow by using economic blackmail instead of military force.
More dependent than they like but not Totally. India's huge purchases of Discounted Oil is a big help too. Natural Gas is still going to Europe, (through the Ukraine no less). Iran is also doing what it can. Stories of their imminent collapse are huge exaggerations. Saying "Putin got dragged into the War" is as an erroneous a statement as you are going to hear anywhere.

I was in HM forces during the Cold War and Gulf War. I was based in Berlin most of this time and we knew then that Soviet/Russian equipment was awful. Part of our Training was to study it and we where never impressed with any of it. Now when i see that Same equipment even if slightly upgraded being used today its shows what a joke of a military Russia operates. The Chinese use Russian variets and like in the Gulf war 91 the Iraqis used Chinese varients of Russian Armoured Vechles. A complete bag of bolts and spanners.

One word, technology, taiwan produces over 90% of the worlds most advanced micro chip, chips that are in everything when it comes to millitary technology, we just arent capable of producing them on the scale they are anytime soon, its an extremely d Advanced process, and they are just way better at it right now, and they are l Already developing even more advanced micro chips that no one else in the entire world is able to do right now, including the U.S.
Both countries pride themselves as they exercise their sovereignty outside from the understanding of the West whose psyche is aggression. Their trade and cultural exchange has increased and is based on mutual respect and for the interest and welfare of their people with or without sanctions from the US and the West. They do not compete as much as the US and its allies do. But they will not back out from an aggressive entity - economically or militarily.
In regards to your remarks that the Russian equipment doesn't work - is it actually because the technology is over-rated and doesn't work as well as advertised? Or is it more that the corrupt Russian system has stripped the equipment that was supposed to make it top tier? For example the electronics in tanks - sights, night vision, etc.

Russia did grab 18% of Ukraine, they didn't win, lost assets they CAN afford (because NATO will never attack them); the Ukrainians did the fighting, the West however failed to mobilize their power, has NO strategy and this is costing Ukraine a lot of civilians and military casualties (totally unneccessary if the West had send enough anti air/missile systems and had put no limits on their usage).
The west is willing to fight its enemy's an invest billions and billions in weaponry , but crazy as it sounds , the west has a huge aversion to victory , I.e. North Korea , Vietnam , Afganistan , Iraq an others. Why is America willing to fight but unwilling to win ?
The propaganda never ends.

Peer wars are extremely difficult to fight compared to a western country fighting tribesman. We haven't really seen peer wars since WW2 and we know how that turned out. Russia is learning that a determined educated country isn't going to easily fold. Xi should take note and also remember that Taiwan has a moat around it.
That moat can keep our equipment out too...Taiwan needs to raise its military budget to 10% of GDP immediately. All drones and asymmetric munitions, they also need to produce a domestic fighter platform, and need hundreds of them. We will not be able to get a fraction of equipment there that we did in Ukraine.
But it is very, very small.

Yes!
@@JairoSouzajcdecade The evil west is to blame or what ?
@julie804.
By his sycophantic subordinates.
Quite simply Putin wanted a huge win grabbing Ukraine in a quick action. His subordinates weren’t brave enough to tell him what he needed to hear, they just told him he wanted to hear. So, he made this big ego boosting grab based on faulty intelligence. In no way was he prepared for a long war. His biggest mistake was completely misreading how Europe would do without his gas AND come together to supply Ukraine with superior weapons. The main result is the world now sees the full result of Russian endemic corruption, poor leadership and the poor quality of weapons.
He had little choice. It was either that of face total humiliation and the loss of billions of dollars a year in income.
Also Putin is limited where he can travel. ICC has an arrest warrant for him.
China helping Ruzza via N. Koria. We have been played but this is just talking point for the west.
I have a friend in the Philippines who told me about how China has been saber rattling over there and committing acts of piracy. They have physically assaulted Philippines shipping and taken cargo. (I also steamed one of their news broadcast.) I'm pretty sure that all the actions towards Philippines is going to be used as a distraction for something else, but it is still going to provoke a response that they will not like.

3) ru technology on the battlefield in the last 30 years? I mean ru "proper Engineers" (still) in ru the last 30-years?
Well you get the idea...
I think you are a little mistaken, there are dozens of large manufacturers and developers of microelectronics in the Russian Federation, including their own microprocessors (Elbrus, Baikal, Elvis), there are large manufacturers of SSD memory, many companies produce components. We also have our own production of thermal imager matrices, electron optical converters, satellite equipment, and our own latest generation lithographic machines. The Soviet Union was the leader of computing technology in the 60s, unique ternary computers were created, Soviet developments formed the basis of the pentium processor. It is always worth pointing out that technologies are not only microelectronics, Russia is the leader of nuclear energy, the production and development of unique alloys, jet engines, the production of ultrahigh-temperature superconductors, space technologies (Almost all of Elon Musk's developments are purchased developments of the USSR and Russia).
@@hexagontactical I think you are going to be contested on many points in your statement - Russia the leader of Nuclear energy? - Chernobyl.

More dependent than they like but not Totally. India's huge purchases of Discounted Oil is a big help too. Natural Gas is still going to Europe, (through the Ukraine no less). Iran is also doing what it can. Stories of their imminent collapse are huge exaggerations. Saying "Putin got dragged into the War" is as an erroneous a statement as you are going to hear anywhere.
I wish the US would impose even more stricter tariffs on China
tariffs on china would only make the goods we buy from China more expensive ;kind of a backdoor tax ,if you will . Better than tariffs would be cutting off trade in specific areas

Farage has said he 'admires' Putin. As has Alex Salmond. George Galloway said he 'trusts him more than Keir Starmer'. All of them have taken Russian money too. Julian Malins, a Reform UK candidate said 'He's a very popular Russian president - as such, he's a good Russian president'. Useful idiots, one and all. The 'Putin is a genius' line though came from the most useful idiot of all, Donald Trump. Not a UK politician, but a US one, so considerably more dangerous. Also on the payroll.

I was in HM forces during the Cold War and Gulf War. I was based in Berlin most of this time and we knew then that Soviet/Russian equipment was awful. Part of our Training was to study it and we where never impressed with any of it. Now when i see that Same equipment even if slightly upgraded being used today its shows what a joke of a military Russia operates. The Chinese use Russian variets and like in the Gulf war 91 the Iraqis used Chinese varients of Russian Armoured Vechles. A complete bag of bolts and spanners.
Where is Taiwan? in the Gulf of Mexico?
Why America needs to interfere though?
Since America think it has global influence. Dont worry, Trump will make USA a backward 3rd world economy again.
Because it’s a pacific nation. Remember the US was attacked from Asia on December the 6th. Never again. Remember the state of Hawaii is part of the Asia pacific region. Guam is us territory that’s also closer to Asia than America.

Both countries pride themselves as they exercise their sovereignty outside from the understanding of the West whose psyche is aggression. Their trade and cultural exchange has increased and is based on mutual respect and for the interest and welfare of their people with or without sanctions from the US and the West. They do not compete as much as the US and its allies do. But they will not back out from an aggressive entity - economically or militarily.
In regards to your remarks that the Russian equipment doesn't work - is it actually because the technology is over-rated and doesn't work as well as advertised? Or is it more that the corrupt Russian system has stripped the equipment that was supposed to make it top tier? For example the electronics in tanks - sights, night vision, etc.
It is so easy to be stuped and know everything at the same time.
