    P-75 (i.e scorpene) will likely get 3 additional orders (and however AIP retrofit/incorporation goes w.r.t that) at start of next year as P-75I production will forseeably take some time to get rolling...

    Yes the problems have spilled over into India from time to time in the past already (burmese language family i.e sino-tibetan speaking tribes split by border line) as this is a tough border to enforce and monitor. i.e that stuff waxes and wanes with say what is the current state of conflict the...

    Pakistan Imran Khan Arrested.

    I don't think endgame per se, as the zeitgeist in Pakistan is one such this is going to continue for quite some time. Both sides can't back down as they had their dalliance and only one can have final word on what soured in sudden divorce (promises + cooperation made and broken)......but one...

    Its long story with why that is with Burma (I really dislike the name Myanmar lol, especially as Junta pushed this). "Myanmarese"..... just sounds weird too compared to Burmese.

    Rohingya and BD will have to be careful about the timing of this stuff w.r.t PRC and Burmese junta moves developing.....given Shan rebels performed far better than PRC adjudged they would (in PRC approach to weaken both and grow leverage over both). The Shan militias (incl. many pro-PRC ones)...

    Live Conflict Myanmar Civil War

    I don't see anything good coming out of this long term if Rohingya is joining alongside the Junta. Junta is the one that drove them out with the mass scale pogroms and massacres involved....though the Arakan army might do the same given the chance. The problem is twofold: 1) Level of junta...

    Morocco Morocco Foreign Policy & Geopolitics

    Things would have resolved over time, but the spanish left western sahara very quickly w.r.t Franco last few years. That exacerbated all the issues for the long term as algeria supported polisario in violation of the Madrid accords signed by Morocco, Mauritania and Spain. You lose soldier...
