Not very much, because it was Biden administation that did a big "nope" on keystone pipeline extension (after Trudeau worked so hard to go over Canadian protest/activist groups that were raising issues against it - LOL!). So Biden administration (and whichever sizeable deepstate groups behind...

They were actually mostly Canadian citizens (Indian origin), which made the whole investigation and prosecution process take on a racist/elitist hue to it in that it wasn't handled with same standards (to say the least) that would have happened if the victims were say mostly white-Canadian. It...

Just got into a long heated discussion with some western "libs" elsewhere on all of this. The typical smarmy hypocrite attitude, its disgusting. They also inevitably bring up "Erdogan authoritarianism" in dealing with Gulen/FETO and PKK etc etc, that it is all bad and all these 3rd worlders...

There was an elitist even racist double standard at play in its core, w.r.t the victims involved (i.e mostly Canadian citizens who were Indian origin etc). i.e it is fairly open discussed topic (even and maybe especially within Canada, though maybe not in official media much) how the exact same...

In hindsight it hasn't turned out that way. USSR breakup residual is a major factor in current Russia-Ukraine war (and the conflict that built up before it). I don't like global north or south (just like I never liked First vs Third world). I just prefer developing world vs developed world...

Yeah like the 100 times greater drama between KSA and the US, be it 9/11 or Kashoggi... and now Biden all pals with MBS again. Super serious stance, things never blew over or will blow over. Canada also never did a dumb things on its part regarding this right? It was one-way? Muslims engaged...

I expect relations to decline officially for a while....while India focuses on handling Canada matters (be it trade or relations) through the US anyway. The US is economy and military power of far greater consequence. Trudeau and the liberals have a deliberate policy to vote bank with the Sikh...

There is also the matter that civilian raw shipyard capacity is not 1:1 with whats needed (investment, labour and then actual spending on top to produce) for warships. Very different types of ships, testing and training (its not easy or cheap to produce competent naval crew and all supporting...

You clearly have no understanding of what the differences have long been and continue to be between social programs, industrial and investment policies of Indian states and the legislative and executive powers reposed in the state (different to the federal govt) that have created differences in...

Why? What is next, we should see the whole world, not a country? Simply everything is based on some resolution you picked....wherever the determining factors actually lie? There are different governments in different states in a country the size of India... that created different policies at...

I don't agree. Take for example my home state Tamil Nadu (TN) in India. TN car exports are about 380,000 (India total is around 700,000) in latest year. TN population about 76 million, i.e why does 5% of india population export more than half the cars it does? Extrapolate TN per capita car...

I've largely stopped paying attention to their establishment. Even their own people increasingly despise them. I already knew what JF-17 was a long time ago, whatever they doll up for the propaganda at kamra means little to me. Simply put if it were genuine, we would see a whole host more...

Bro, we (Turkish core membership here, myself and others) already talked/debated about this over 100's of pages in the economy thread. Its not about being communist like its strict command economy or something. Its about making competent policy decisions and creating strong balanced...

I have been following Turkish investment flows for some time. Whatever the price was like, too much investment (and debt, loans and so on) went to real estate instead of production oriented sectors. Studying Turkish economy first needs look at its gross fixed capital formation. This rate was...
