    India India - China Relations

    From what I know (maybe I am wrong) - Nike and others had lost considerable market-shares in China already before Dumb Trump's trade war. The first time I recall that NIKE and other's wanted to move to Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, etc. was starting at around 2012 onward.. The...

    Aside from historic connections and mutual enemies of the past, it is rising nationalism since the last 2 -3 decades. Just look at any Western countries nationalistic groups (not necessarily Neo-Nazis as always propagated by the liberal press) just nationalists with a strong backing in Austria...

    India India - China Relations

    I don't know where you get your information from. To build a factory in e.g. Tibet - the m2 cost is around 1500Rmb - furthermore the Chinese state is willing and able to subsidize any cost related to investments in it's "underdeveloped belt" - incl. land for free, plus incentives such as no tax...

    I have seen lot's of these inhuman acts in Africa. BTW the Wehrmacht and especially it's recruited "assistants" from former Soviet occupied territories didn't have a much better reputation - it's just that nothing much has been written in that regard. This does not excuse such crimes presently...

    Germany Germany, rearmament, and Ukraine - "Why 100 billion Euro may not fix the German military"

    Germany's actual problem isn't money - but the political will and it's populations indifference to care about it's defense - aka the Bundeswehr. Take any servicemen and ask him to explain as to why he is serving in the Bundeswehr - you will find two major factions, and both do not represent...

    India India - China Relations

    It's the natural evolution of an economy - Initially China was in need for cheap industry and products to get a significant push, now it's e.g. India's or Vietnam's turn. In many economic meetings this issue was already addressed by China from 2005 onward and respective steps had been initiated...

    Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

    Not so sure about that - NATO today isn't comparable with NATO of the 80's The Sovietunion had already lost it's edge over NATO from the late 60's onward. After that nukes made sure that even a conventional war won't happen. Agree, but Russia doesn't have these "assets" in regards to a huge...

    Perfect It isn't a joke actually - but true brutal reality - (the actual loss figures I will leave up to you) but somehow you forgot Ukrainian military losses and especially civilians and the systematic destruction of a countries infrastructure. Plus the economic losses (creating a large...

    Are you are aware that world dominance has been the US active policy since 1900? The Soviet-union only entered that stage after May 1945 - via keeping occupying liberated NAZI and friends territory after May 1945 in order (from their point of view) to counter US European dominance. Finland had...

    I believe so, because my entire life so far is based on exchange of views and knowledge with other persons and institutions. And everyone with such experience will form an opinion - which usually differ very much with those of authors of books and newspaper articles that always behold a...

    Russia Land Forces and Vehicles Programs

    Thanks, but not in regards to strategic assets towards airborne targets. Actually more into such systems used on tracked and wheeled vehicles. Like the ELOKA Fuchs or EW Boxer of the Bundewehr- directed towards communication and EW towards land based assets, like MLRS/Himars or any vehicle...

    Absolutely - and it is not just the military aspect - but the respective countries population and government (especially democratic countries) willingness to "suffer" for how long?

    It would take far too much time and detail to reply to your post in full, so I will just restrict it to "Aviation" The main issue/problem with many authors (who try to portray Russia's potential negative) - resort to all kind of way's to "support" their own view. Instead of being neutral and...
