Looks like the largest part of the world is uniting. Do they really want to fight the West? Probably not. All they want to do is have better relations among themselves.


Putin, Xi pledge stronger partnership as Russia pummels Ukraine
Friendly relations have been established between Russia and China. This can be seen from the meeting of the presidents of these two countries. It is interesting to see how the Russian President is greeted in a friendly manner in China. This is a serious business alliance between two strong countries and it is an alliance for many years. Therefore, I think all leaders of European countries should understand this and draw conclusions.Friendship between Russia and China brings benefits to the two countries and I think in case of danger or military confrontation, these countries will unite to fight and this will be the strongest army in the world

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_with_highest_military_expenditures

Total US + Europe (just France, UK an Germany):
960B + 200B = 1160 B

Total China + Ruzzia
296B + 109 B = 404 B (not even half, not even half of just the US)

I think that your troll farm should pay you much less of whatever you are getting paid and Xi starting to get the right friends. Anyway, I think that this "eternal no-limits" friendship is as crap as it looks. Countries do not have friends, they have interests.

Europe and the US are observing how even with such a "powerful alliance" cannot gain more than a few hundred meters a week against a small-ish country such as Ukraine with a minimal support from Europe and US. China's leaders should be taking very good note of what it means to try and above all, look a Ruzzia and see what it means to fail. Xi would not survive ever a disaster such as Ruzzia's in Ukraine.


They show how the winners of this war are not in Europe, Ruzzia nor China.


You need to realize that a whole lot of the money the US and Nato spend is simply markup. If the military in these countries wasn't so greedy, they could get by with a lot less. The point is that the spending is built into the system, and it is difficult to 'buy' results from their military manufacturers because of the markup.

On the other side, with lower markup in Russia and China, there isn't the incentive to work as hard to develop new war tech. However, they don't really have to. US military bases around the world are made up of people who want to make more money than piddly military pay. So, they sell US armament on the black market, which means that the American military is developing for both sides, and really doesn't care who wins.

This is obvious from the fact that both China and Russia have nuclear missiles. They didn't invent those missiles - although they may have invented improvements. They were sold those missiles through the black market, if they weren't outright given the technology.

The West is one of its own worst enemies. And it is flooding the world with the ability to destroy everything.

BTW, listen to be.open. He has a lot of down-to-earth info that is going on right in Ukraine.

Cool
