  2. Not really. I just made a point that you were not able to understand. The same point that Trump made and people could not understand it. Well, you ilk anyway. Pro-Americans get it instantaneously.

    The point being that both Putin and Xi are strong leaders for looking out for their own country and advancing their own causes even if the goals are jaundiced.

    They have long term multi-decade goals and work toward them feverishly decade in and decade out.

    Meanwhile, your crew is busy trying to figure out which bathroom to use and which northern triangle country to protect and enhance this week, and which part of our history and culture should be canceled this week.

    Why Russia’s Navy in Ukraine War is Doomed (or Irrelevant)

    By Brian E. Frydenborg

    Ukraine is about to get (or maybe now just started receiving) Western anti-ship missiles and may even have its own advanced anti-ship missiles almost ready for deployment. A small number of such missiles could wipe out all of Russia’s big surface warships near Ukraine in the Black Sea and Sea of Azov or push Russian ships out of range and too far away to be able to meaningfully support Russia’s war effort. This missile technology in the hands of Ukraine’s competent and adaptive fighters will be a game-changer much like Javelin and other anti-tank missiles have been for Ukraine against Russian armor thus far in Putin’s failing war.

    Why did Turkey have to safe 54 Russians if Russia was able to evacuate all people?
    The story that Russia is telling is a lie probably.
    First of all the missiles hit the boat by surprise.
    So Russia had to evacuarte 510 people in a very short time without preparation as tghey did not know that the attack would happen.
    Where there other Russians ships nearby who could organize that evacuation?
    Why did 54 Russians being saved by Turkey if Russians evacuated all the others?

    I hope that reality is that only 54 survived and the others are all dead.

    The Neptune is a Ukrainian weapon, developed domestically based on the Soviet KH-35 cruise missile. It became operational in the Ukrainian forces just last year, according to Ukrainian media reports.
    So no British missiles.
