I think it's important to point out that a Government doesn't need to do things officially to weed out a language.
Implementation of other languages as official language, language courses and slowly changing educational books to be more and later on solely in one language... are steps that can...
The water is a natural barrier regardless of what China says. Taiwans biggest mistake is not changing the written language but staying with Chinese letters. They should imo move to English language fully and abandon Chinese.
Korea did exactly that, changed the whole written language so they...
I thikk it’s quite meninful sharing. I just wish that little part southeast east of dhakalia had been taken as well, effectively creating/using UK as a natural border ;)
Yes, and while these gains are small. A more strategic move would be better. If Russia pulls out, Azerbaycan should establish border gates and control Israeli style and squeeze the life out of the Armenians in Karabagh.
I truly believe bordergate/control and registration of those that enter...
By next decade we opefully won’t need the cooperation they seem to revive.
I think Turkey should take a backseat and let France and Italy do the main work and spend resources on it. If they develop state of the art then we can contribute, but I don’t see why we should be front runners .
We can...
Does our CMS have NATO interoperability? Like heartbang said it’s important to be able to integrate these systems otherwise it’ll be like start from scratch every time. I’m thinking from an export pov as well, e.g. PH seems to be stuck with US line16 cms but they also buy SK vessels and thus...
I’d also point out that with the age of drones laser guided precision is going to be dominating the field.
But I’m thrilled to see how the unmanned loader is working and think it’s a fair point that we should take into consideration. Tanks are suppose to be in the thick of battle, and with...
There is one simple answer, economics. Someone needs to keep making money from anything, and if taxpayers ever become net contributors to energy and don’t pay for electricity someone is going to lose a lot of money. I think the US is an example of this. People with PV are not allowed to deliver...
@Isa Khan gave the necessary answer. My pov is that Ukraine is now fighting for their “independence” like Turkey did and we can choose to feed them weapons for this endeavor
They're still looking toward fossil fuel for energy that won't solve anything in the long run. I think it's necessary to think bigger. I wish it was mandatory to have solar panels on on all rooftops and all exess energy go to industrial use of sorts, or commercial. the state could give tax...
The defense is a year behind with a call for a session: "It's a problem"
After two years with the corona, the Armed Forces has accumulated a hump of 33,500 people who have not been called up for Defense Day. This can be a problem, not least if the number of conscripts is to increase rapidly...
While I found your perspective on Russia's invasion (doctrin) of Ukraine interesting. I have difficulty understanding how the scenario we're seeing played before us through different media support your assesment.
As I see it Russia is doing everything they can to try get Mariupol and they'll...
