Ferengi rule of aquisition #34: War is good for business.
That’s bad!
Honestly, I think that there may be a very legitimate argument that given that Romania and Bulgaria joined – and this becomes even more-significant with a Ukrainian membership – that the scope of Article 6 should be extended to the Black Sea, as we did with Turkey when Turkey joined. Otherwise, it’s possible for Russia to perform a blockade on NATO Black Sea powers and sink their warships without them being able to avail themselves of NATO Article 5 protection.
Broadly speaking you aren’t wrong but ATM russian navy is unable to blockade even the civilian shipping of a country that has no navy. There is probably no need to resolve this issue now, especially as the Black sea countries are bound by the previous treaties on Black Sea like the Montreux convention. Moscow might be more amenable to changes of these treaties if NATO doesn’t let them win in Ukraine.
Czechoslovakia certainly didn’t invade in the traditional sense, because:
Sure, that’s already happening even with the dual use supplies. But it will make the supplychain more complicated and less steady and it will give us more clout on the countries reselling to them(China doesn’t want lose access to the west, it’s more about Central Asia). It will also make it cost more, but that’s of no concern to these people.
But the high officials and oligarchs don’t want to drink vodka for commoners, they want wine, cognac & whisky from the west.
We really should sanction exporting alcohol to ruskys, if only to save ourselves from Dima’s delirium maddness.
You lie, moskals have been observed to continue stealing, raping, killing and ethnic cleansing long after any hostilities ceased in many armed conflicts before. Their behaviour in Bucha and elsewhere proves they haven’t changed one bit.
Yes. Yes, we did. And what are you going to do, khuylo yebanyy?
Bridges(and other transport infrastructure) are valid military targets. Unlike children hospitals for example. Seems to me that you, just like much of moskals, still don’t grasp what starting a war means.
Look, ruskies have been hiring in Cuba, India, Nepal and elsewhere for well over a year now. If they don’t know what’s going on, it’s only because of ignorance.
Ignorance kills. In this case quite literally.
If at this point anybody willingly accepts any job in muscovy, they deserve everything that will happen to them.
Bloody bastards.
Very well, stupid orcs will cut themselves off, stagnate, slowly fall behind and ultimately fall apart just like they did in 1991.
I only feel sorry for young non-braindead people who can’t get out in time from this rusky hell.
Yes, but there USA were fighting the locals. Here it’s moskals who is fighting the locals.
And funny you bring up Afghanistan, USSR went down also because of invading it.
Moskals can’t afford to wage the war for three more years.
Less than how many would die by the rampaging horde if Ukraine gave up. Judging by what happend in Bucha, Irpin, Mariupol or elsewhere.
Israel has something like 35000 people in it’s air force. That’s a tiny air force.
That’s very relative. While it may seem tiny from US or Chinese POV it’s more than the whole militaries of many European nations even twice as big as Israel.
Many EU members did, some of them already in 2022.
