It could be. However, you seem to forget that the Soviet Union has been dissolved so there was no gentleman's agreement any more (in case there was any). The irony is that the main reason for this dissolution was the unilateral independence declared by Russia in June 1991 (6 months before) which also induced the declaration of independence of Uhraine one month later!

I wasn't around at the time either, but I've read it only happened after the alliance they had with Germany was broken when Germany invaded Russia. BRW, following your usual rationale, millions of Russian lives would have been saved if the U.S. didn't send massive military help to Russia and let Hitler conquer Russia! 😉

Most posts in this thread are a perfect illustration of the reason why I usually don't participate in such threads...... There's no way to post anything without being accused of the worst intent by either one or the other camp! -

Bannon says House Republicans secretly want Trump to lose
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Exactly! Trumpers and non-Trumpers are part of the same GOP swamp! 😃 -
That was expected as the constitution was written under the military Junta.

Not an election as we understand it. More like a selection. If you want to understand how it works, it's all explained here: https://www.ilaw.or.th/articles/20706 Quote: What the constitutional drafters envisioned as an election among an exclusive club of the nonpartisan experts will turn out to be an election for the elderly, wealthy, and well-connected few.

No problem. Just spend 300 baht less everyday in tourism oriented businesses: choose cheaper rooms, cheaper meals, less drinks.... 😃 -
Boston's massive drop in homicides leads nation
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Not true. The changes have been made under Trump. Edit Actually it took 4 years to progressively implement the system, until the switch on 1 January 2021, so nothing to do with the Biden administration. https://bjs.ojp.gov/nibrs-estimation-project -
Boston's massive drop in homicides leads nation
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The "recent changes" occurred on 1st Jan. 2021 (so still under the Trump administration, BTW). It means the 2023 data are comparable to the 2021 and 2022 data. -

Move Forward party leads Pheu Thai by a wide margin in new poll
candide replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Due to the nomination process, the Senate will likely be controlled by the conservative elite. However, as I understand, the new Senate will not elect the PM any more. -

It would have been interesting to know for which party they would vote.... -
Obviously, you haven't looked at recent polls. Anyway, it would be the same if the property were called Biden or Obama. Whatever the name, It's not in the interest of sellers that the name of the building may displease around 50% of potential buyers. I guess that when they bought it, Trump wasn't a politician.
