    Putin is confident in his nuclear weapons. Don't worry about him.

    Yes, yes. I know. In Western countries, having one's own opinion already a reason for insult. Bradbury wrote about it in 451 degrees Fahrenheit.

    The sweep began in March 2022. And it continues to be successful.
    The Russians increased their territory by five new regions.
    Don't worry about the Russians. They are doing well.

    Putin IS an enemy of The United States, anyone that isn’t worried about their enemy is a fool.

    In other words, you are saying that the Russian people do not decide anything, unlike the Western average citizen.
    In other words, for example, the annual marches of SS veterans in Riga are the desire of Latvian citizens. And Latvian politicians only implement the demands of Latvians.
    In this case, given the desire of the Western average citizen, it becomes clear why the Russians are considering the use of a nuclear strike. The Russians understand what fascist aggression against them is.

    Naturally, when a state is at war not just with one country, but with an entire bloc of aggressive countries, such as NATO, the state's expenditures increase. This is nothing new.
    But while the Russians may feel the difficulties in the economy in a few years, as you write, the Western average citizen feels it already today. And you know that. So the Russians are in a better position.

    Paris today looks like this.


    Do I have to show you videos from Detroit, L.A., Chicago ...etc.? Or do you know how things are in those cities?

    How does that relate --- in some way shape or form -- to the question of the success rate of Russian nukes .. and the fact that having the best of the best rocket and missile technology will go a long way to ensuring a high success rate .. and that your speculation that this rate would be low .. is unfounded and without merit ?

    Really? Read my post again. I didn't 'attack' you for having an opinion. I attacked you for all of the reasons I listed in that post. And lets be absolutely clear here. You didn't address any of those reasons in your response just now! (Sucks to be you I guess.)

    You see the thing is your 'opinions' aren't and never were the issue. We all have 'opinions'. What matters is how those opinions are expressed and more importantly the evidence presented to support those opinions. You on the other hand have presented no facts at all! So in reality your 'opinions' aren't really opinions, they're just prejudices.

    Irrelevant to anything and .. simply not true to begin with. I think there was a little force involved in Serbia/Kosovo .. aye Some in Iraq as well .. Syria .. Yemen .. and lest we forget Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala .. our merry band of Proxy Terrorist Death Squads romping all over the world.

    So - a pointless comment to begin with .. even if the underlying claim was true but, the underlying claim is preposterously untrue (expansion never achieved in anydirection via threat or forced occupation) Ridiculously untrue to be sure.

    I was wondering why individual countries surrounding Russia should not be able to form their own governments and have their own foreign & domestic policies without Russia's permission.

    On the other hand, I can understand why many Russians would be very anxious if and when those surrounding countries started to join NATO and arm themselves with nuclear weapons.

    I also don't doubt for a minute that the US would intervene, as it has done in the past, in South American governments that turned to Communism so it's not that one country is especially more virtuous than another it just seems like larger, more powerful countries feel compelled to at least influence if not control their smaller, weaker nations.

    It's been going on since the beginning of time and, like propaganda, everyone does it.

    One of the things that I like about this forum is that we have the opportunity to hear the opinions of people in the countries we read about and discuss.

    Based on the content of your Post, I feel that I can safely assume that you're not Russian, so, do you mind telling me in which country you live?

    Thanks,

    Do you think you are the smartest or what? :roflol::roflol::roflol:
    The Russians can do whatever they need to do.
    For example, they can be the first to make hypersonic missiles. You can't make them. Just like you can't make unmanned submarines like the Russian Poseidon. And in space without the Russians you will have big problems.
    Also for example the US is critically dependent on nuclear fuel supplies from Russia for nuclear power plants. ...Etc.
    And you think the Russians won't do the equipment maintenance? Don't make me laugh.
    Siemens also thought the Russians couldn't do without their turbines, but the Russians ended up making turbines superior to Siemens turbines in no time at all. And Siemens today is biting its elbows with helplessness. The Russian market for Siemens is lost.
    And so it is in every position.

    Ahahaha.... Only you can't fix anything. The foreign debt is growing every day. So is servicing it. Which is a significant problem for the budget, which can only and exclusively be made up by borrowing. And that increases the foreign debt - and so it goes round and round until it completely collapses.
    And that is why the west provokes world wars. As it was before the first world war, so it was before the second world war. And so it is now.

    But a differing opinion from yours is being rudely attacked.
    As for "prejudice," it can be labeled "false judgments that turn into beliefs. That said, whether they are false or not is up to you to decide?,"
    And even if one assumes that beliefs are false, such as religious beliefs, then according to your belief, such people can be insulted.
    I wonder if this is your culture, or are you saying this out of hate?
    However, remember Nietzsche? - "You should have enemies only such as you would hate, not such as you would despise. You should be proud of your enemies, then the successes of your enemy will also be your successes."
    I think that anyone should not humiliate himself by insulting his opponent.

    So successful there's division among the ranks.
    You're predictions seem to be wrong 99% of the time.

    A Russian nuke in the Ukraine would just rain down radioactive fallout on Russia. Not likely to happen.

    I have one word for you.....Armata.....how many were supposed to be delivered by 2023 and how many are actually serving with regular units?


    ahahahaha.....:roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol:.....(since you're still on that crap)....if Russian engineering was so good and so advanced then where are all the tanks and where did the money go? So, a simple question the number of tanks deilvered is [....] out of the total order of [...] to have been in operation by regular units in 2023. Fill in the gaps.

    ahahahaha.....:roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol:....Russia doesn't have these things you have a cruise missile which Putin thought was a "hyper sonic" missile but wasn't....it doesn't work (as the arrested scientists will attest to)....it's a re-painted missile from the 1970/80s....


    ahahahaha.....:roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol:....Russia the only army in the world struggling to refurbish WWII equipment as it has nothing else to put on the battlefield.....

    I'm bored with this now...

    Disproportionately women. Not many small children. No active military in uniform. No evidence of any wounded veterans. Most of the men shown seem to be of draft age. Conclusion: a rather odd video.

    Your knowledge of geography is as lousy as your knowledge of history. (And just about every other subject you post on!). Nor can you read English apparently. My reference to NATO expansion explicitly related to it's membership, in the context of former soviet block nations willingly and eagerly joining. Nothing else. And it may have escaped your notice but Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Guatemala etc are NOT members of NATO.! Hell they're not even on the right continent! Serbia on the other hand is, so I guessed you lucked out with that one but ..... its also not a member of NATO. :roll:

    So how about you send me a list of all the countries on the planet and I'll tick the ones that are members of NATO for you. It will just like when you were back in primary school - just before you got expelled.

    As I noted before you 'insult' virtually everyone on this forum by posting comments that are literally an insult to their intelligence. Do better.

    Never stated Yemen Nicaragua et al were members of NATO .. so why are you pretending otherwise.. engaging in strawman fallacy then on basis of something never stated cry and wail that my knowledge of history and geography is bad.

    Fallacy and name calling not an argument for much Monash -- Your claim that expansion by NATO never achieved through threat nor annexation a falsehood .. as this includes expansion by NATO members and of their influence expansion into non nato States .. and NATO influence .. "Such as puting a base in Saudi Arabia" .

    Your attempt to salvage lost argument a big fail.

    You should probably spend more of your time denigrating Presidents Reagan and Bush.
