When Russia attacks Ukraine, it would be the perfect time for China to attack Taiwan. It is essentially a middle-out tactic where the defense forces are split.
Russia needs Ukraine. China needs Taiwan. Both locations are perfect "control areas of the battlespace". Any military commander would recommend an attack.
The real issue would be direct force-on-force confrontations between Russia/US and/or China/US. So far the superpowers have avoided this and worked through proxy fights. Even in Syria the US was VERY careful to avoid Russian troops.
However, in Taiwan, there are US service personnel. I don't know but I suspect there are also US "advisors" in the Ukraine. Direct superpower attacks won't end well.
The situation will get wildly out of control VERY quickly.
Wonder if they'll give Russia a 48-hr ultimatum to surrender like they did with Iraq in 2003. /s
Or, you know, 2014.
US believed that Iraq had WMD's ...
Most likely they'll invade the Donbass on Christmas. They believe it's theirs, and since they always invaded their neighbors, it will happen. Just wondering what Germany under Annalena will do. She should speak up now
US lost their narrative a while back. Lots of thrashing about as their population can see for themselves the world only needs defending from the US. Ofcourse we need the Ruskis and Chinese to react harshly to our provocations(in the wimpest way possible too). Sad, but good data points for future 'empires'
The arguments put forth to attack Russia first. The amount of military adventures and âexercisesâ around Russia and the Black Sea all need a justification. My favorite is the war equivalent of a sucker punch: the preemptive war. To manufacture war and aggression you need to manufacture consent.
Typical cold war speak, but now one-sided and utterly hypocritical.
First we surround you and take any opportunity to exploit your grievances with your neighbor countries and get them in our fold against you(while we're a country half the way around the world, which should have no business in the area), and then we accuse you...
Some of the "grievances" include military invasions and ongoing occupation. So... why did you decide to be a hypocrite too, what's the point?
Who invaded Ukraine, the USA? Russia has a long history of fucking it's neighbors. Why do you think the entirety of Eastern Europe wants nothing to do with them. You think they'll stop at Ukraine, their goal is to restore the Soviet Union and keep all these countries under their thumb. Even Putin says it was the biggest mistake in Russian history to allow the break up of their Empire.
Putin is criminal and he is no friend of the West. His aircraft loiter around Alaska and he tests US defenses every hour. Don't be an apologist for a tyrant.
> their goal is to restore the Soviet Union
More like, restore the buffer zone with defensible geographic barriers that the Soviet Union had.
Russiaâs geography is terrible for defense it being positioned in the âhorde landsâ which allow attacking armies to drive right through. Current Russian borders require huge armies to defend in a nation that is running out of suitable army personnel due to a terminally low birth rate for decades, widespread heroin addiction, disease etc.
This move by Russia has long been expected, and it wonât stop at the Ukraine.
> This move by Russia has long been expected, and it wonât stop at the Ukraine
will stop at nato borders or 99% of us will die.
Please don't try to sell us the US boys as saints. They ain't. Very much the opposite.
I find this comment distasteful.
