If to be serious....Gorbachev, and then Yeltsin, made too many treacherous mistakes, betrayals against their country. I understand that, firstly, they had no experience of acting in such a crisis-turning period, and secondly, they were insidiously deceived by Western leaders. They were too trusting. In Russia, they are both cursed. Well.... Now Putin, with the support of his people, is correcting the mistakes of those two traitors...So, do what you have to do, and come what may..

Figures that Russia's last patriots would be reviled in favor of a return to bloodthirsty maniacs.

As I wrote above, nuclear weapons played a central role in the cold war. The USSR decided to surrender and dismantle itself, because it did not want to be hit by thermo-nuclear weaponry. However, few people are aware about the circumstances of the surrender. A secret surrender ceremony took place aboard an American warship that was docking at Malta port, in the Mediterranean Sea. It was agreed that the Soviets would not be required to tell their people about the surrender, but instead tell to their people that the USSR decided, from its own will, to perform a rearrangement. In Russian, this rearrangement was known as "Perestroyka".

Is this from the Fiction section?

Japan's brutal rampage across Asia indeed happened, but the trigger for it was the behavior of America towards Japan in the 19th century.

A likely story. Somehow that whole invasion of China happened.

@Aget neo

it is equally difficult to imagine countries like the US, Israel, UK or Ftance giving up their nuclear weapons.

And yet those countries don't wave their nuclear deterrence around like some others.

If they need a woman get one, if they can’t improve themselves until a woman will have them.

That's easy for you to say as an able-bodied person.

Any man especially married who goes to prostitutes cannot be trusted in any aspect of his life.

They are not asking you to trust them with anything. They are asking to be left alone in what is a private matter.

Fact check: USSR did not steal one square inch of land that is not UN-recognized.

Fact check: the UN geospatial site is pretty flimsy evidence of recognition but does highlight several of Russia's other disgraces.

I mean they would say that at that location, wouldn't they?

Doing things twenty years too late is problematic as it leaves the dozens of other monopolies that have been allowed to fester online.

Russia won't use tactical warheads in Ukraine.

That's good because NATO is perfectly capable of clearing that route to Crimea people have been going on about.

Yeah, that ain't happening, sorry.

Only because Putin is wisely deterred by NATO conventional capabilities.

We also have evidence Russia is very good at shooting down its own highly classified aircraft - giving it to Ukraine and the West to exploit...

True , could result in UAF finally having access to some real game changing technology since the NATO gamechangers that were supplied so far turned out to be useless junk instead of changing the game.

Nobody believes the F-16 was the limit of NATO weaponry, but whatever helps the vatnik sleep at night.

Still, pretty peaceful considering they are up against the largest navy in the world not dedicated to peace.

The natural progression to a multipolar world proceeds. This is blowback against the hegemonic bloc mentality of the unipolar Atlanticists who have declared they have a special license to sanction, bomb, invade and genocide while claiming the moral high ground under the flimsy pretext of international law, which they abuse at the drop of a hat.

Russia still the shortest pole in the world, but the lack of consistency in doing exactly what they blame the US for is noted.

mrtinjpToday 12:38 pm JST

Rattling the nuclear saber isn't enhancing Russia's security and also this is 2024 and not 1945.

This nobel prize is because of what happened in 1945 not 2024, the narrative though tries its best it deflect to Russia, Gaza etc..

The Nobel committee would be quite silly to rehash ww2 like you suggest. Russia stole some land in that war, too, though.

Still 3% of gdp.

Again, Sherif. You need to name the source before you reiterate your inaccurate refrain. 

The US department of Propaganda does not count :)

Your very same SIPRI says the US spends 3.4% of gdp. QED.

The US spends 43% of global military spending. More than the next 26 countries combined, 25 of whom are allies. 

The US is 26% of world gdp, so not entirely unsurprising we should spend 37% of global military spending. We have to reach across the world to throw Russia and China back.

@NB

Tell us how many people, includes children, women and elders being killed by those Mullah? No matter how you try to illustrate how evil they are.

The entire list of iranian executed? The entire list of victims of Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, and the militias and Iraq and Syria?

The Austrian painter would be rolling in his grave seeing so much pathetic servility from Germany..

The Austrian painter you are referring to was an idiot who lost much for Germany.

Last month, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a shift in his country’s nuclear doctrine, in a move aimed at discouraging the West from allowing Ukraine to strike Russia with longer-range weapons..

Not a word condemning the country which actually used nukes but somehow Russia/Putin need to be blamed, US did and will do what's needed for its security, same goes for Russia or any other country with nukes

Rattling the nuclear saber isn't enhancing Russia's security and also this is 2024 and not 1945.

FosToday 09:22 am JST

Don't know what kind of media you guys are reading, Ukraine is not a winner is a failed state, a destroyed country, razed to the ground. And giving more weapons would kill more Ukrainians who only need diplomacy not hypocrisy and lies from Washington. I am afraid but Russia is stronger than before. Still, the only winner her is Larry Fink (Blackrock Ceo) and his capitalist companions, who are making tons of money investing in the arms manufacturing business, all made in USA. Trying to sell up to Japan too. What a world we live in.

Still 3% of gdp.

If your neighbor down the street is shooting missiles at you, would you do nothing?

.

.

Your apparent inability to answer a simple yes or no question says enough about your lack of logic.

Both questions are reasonable so no point in answering one without the other.

It's so sad that Obama's legacy of raining death from above on families and children taints this prize.

I guess Kissinger and Arafat winning the award was fine with you.

dbsaiyaToday 08:15 am JST

Not just abolition of nukes but to stop war. It should also be noted that Japan still isn't a signatory to the TPNW, nor did Abe or Kishida meet with ICAN after they received the Nobel Peace Prize. So much for Japan's leadership stance on nukes.

That's a good point: the Nobel committee has done this nonsense before. Maybe the list of actual peacemakers is pretty short.

@TaiwanisNotChina

If I were to barge into your home, throw you out onto the street and then murder you if you came back to remonstrate, would I be correct?

Yes or no?

If your neighbor down the street is shooting missiles at you, would you do nothing?

BanthuToday 07:22 am JST

More carnage and innocent lives lost in US-backed Netenyahu's full-scale unprovoked invasion of their neighbor.

Missiles into playgrounds are an actual provocation.

BanthuToday 07:26 am JST

I was assured last year, when the ICC ruled that Putin was facing charges for evacuating orphans out of a war zone and placing them with loving families, that he would never be allowed to leave Russia.

Turkmenistan isn't a member of the ICC like most members of the dictatorship brigade.

Countries are lining up to roll out the red carpet for Putin.

Yeah, I mean he has his choice of vacant land to go to.

HercolobusToday 07:05 am JST

Keep exporting inflation and generating war profits for the Money Masters, while fleecing state coffers and adding burdens on people.

I agree that russia should stop doing that.

kurisupisuToday 06:48 am JST

Is there any country near Israel which has not attacked or been attacked by the Israelis?

Israel is not interested in peace it seems….

It's right there in your statement: they've all attacked Israelis.

There will be a lot of stuff flying, but we've seen this happen in 2020.

As a terrorist state, Russia belongs in Iran's orbit.

What was that about Germany abandoning Ukraine?

BaradzedToday 02:19 am JST

depend solely on US which is always happy to rip Japan off for ‘protection’.

Japan pays way less than the cost to host US troops and our weapons are expensive because they work.
