    In particular as, thanks to Putin's incompetence, Russia's GDP didn't grow at all between 2012 and 2022, and its population also decreased by 1m pop. during the Covid pandemic. More resources were acutely needed, including human resources. It was also a good way to distract attention from real problems before the election. https://www.macrotrends.net/global-metrics/countries/RUS/russia/gdp-gross-domestic-product

    They forgot to mention ladyboy shows. It's included i nearly every Chinese tour. When I show a picture of a lady Thai dancer dressed with the traditional costume to Chinese people, they usually say: ladyboy? 😀

    It's nice from Russia to destroy so much Ukrainian assets, in order to allow U.S. companies to rebuild Ukraine. 😀

    And Russia's declaration of independence before that has been the main cause of the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

    And your numbers probably don't include UK, which is also part of nato.

    It doesn't make any sense. Why wait for Ukraine? NATO has already several borders with Russia, or very close to Russia. If distance is so important, why not start by putting them closer, in Poland and Romania? And, as I wrote before, they already have nuclear subs near Russia and they don't really need to put nukes at Russia's border.

    In which textbook or report is it written that the effect of an economic crisis stops that early?
  8. candide
    If they want that, why haven't they done it yet? And is the location so important? Actually, they already are (I guess It's the same for UK and France), thanks to nuclear subs, which are much more dangerous as their location is not known.

    Which party has been denied to rule. Where have you seen that before?
  10. candide
    At which date do you consider the effect of the Covid crisis stopped. On which economic analysis is it based?
  11. candide
    More B.S. Russian propaganda from you! The U.S. did not put any nukes near the Russian border. Nukes are in the same places as during the cold war. https://www.cfr.org/in-brief/nuclear-weapons-europe-mapping-us-and-russian-deployments

    Sure! It's not Putin who is morally bankrupt, but the U.S.! 🤣

    Is it better to let China dominate the EV market, et let U.S. manufacturers stuck with an old technology? To the point that, one day, Chinese manufacturers will have reached such a level of economies of scale that it will be impossible to compete against them?

    I don't think he was believing the electorate would turn to him. It was more about limiting damage.

    The Communist party has 9 seats in the new house.

    Narcissism likely played a role in this decision. However, it is also based on the assessment that it would have been worse to wait more. He may be right or wrong about it. The current government is also a minority government and could have been censored as soon as next fall.

    Voted only by Republicans! Who would have thought? 😀

    Lame deflection. FD-1023 anyone?

    Malone who 'claimed' to have invented the mRNA vaccine! 😀 https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/03/technology/robert-malone-covid.html Has he published an empirical study in a peer-reviewed journal, or just been interviewed in crappy media? As to McCulough, the horse dewormer apologist, he did publish papers, but not supported by empirical evidence, and has been contradicted by empirical studies.

    And a powerfull mastermind! He even convinced Russia to interfere in the U.S. election, convinced Trump's campaign and son to meet with Russian operatives in Trump tower, and also convinced Manafort to hand U.S. polling data to Russia, among others. 😆

    The first step is to concentrate on scientific sources, and ignore crappy conspiracy theories-friendly sites and social media accounts, as well as poticical theater.
  22. candide
    Well, if one can see it, that's surely a scientific proof! 😅
  23. candide
    Who are these knowlegeable and reputable scientists who have been silenced and threatened? Multiple scientific studies have been published on each and every aspect of Covid-19 in scientific peer-reviewed journals.
  24. candide
    B.S. conspiracy theory! 😆

    More B.S., unsupported by your sources
