    China has its problems but, has been hoarding gold and redeeming US treasury bonds. The days of the US dollar is numbered. Now, China is cashing in its foreign exchange reserves to support its own economy. US has a $40 trillion deficit now but, continuing to spend like crazy. Another $15 billion in aid just to Ukraine alone. Russia has a lot of gold too which is more valuable than worthless dollars losing value day by day. Europe is not that far behind the US as inflation in Europe like the US is sky high. Russia has $600 billion in the US as its foreign currency reserves frozen by the US. At some point, a reckoning will happen. US and NATO could easily be sanctioned by BRICS which is rising as a huge economic power now. Those sanctions will hurt more as the US and Europe become weak economically.

    Pringles is apparently in Africa, which would seem to be the smart move for him -

    Same happened when the west announced plans to privide UA with tanks, - few days later/few weeks, vatniks were ,,destroying" dozens of Leopards in front/their imagination.

    And some of the pictures the vatniks used as "evidence" came from outside of Ukraine and were taken years ago. Additionally, most of their pictures were of Soviet/Russian tanks. Their inability to do basic recognition of military armor is sad.

  10. RTL (France): French neo-Nazis fight for Ukraine, 2023

    Quote:

    About 100 French mercenaries are currently fighting in Ukraine. These are mostly men from 25 to 40 years old, "who are in search of meaning and purpose in life." More than a third of them are close to ultra–right beliefs, some are "obviously neo-Nazis."
