I had not heard that, but a “big airbase” on an island can be problematic logistically, especially that close to a contested area. You really want...
Agree that would be of more concern. Though, you have to admire the dark humor of Putin’s covetous desires on others’ territory. He is losing (or...
Nah, you were just thinking about it wrong. The idea is not to entertain the excess young men but rather to get their numbers down to something...
Nor should they. Both countries should just ignore it and continue business as usual. If Russia wants to provoke an incident and make our next...
Always a pleasure to see Russian invaders meet their end in Ukraine Russian troops sent flying as boat is blown up by Ukrainian drone (msn.com)
He is also the first leader since Mao to deliberately not have a succession plan. In the event of his untimely death, there might be quite the...
