I do not want to prefict anything, more using the available historic facts when it comes to earlier interventions, and economic embargos. This war is totally different because Zelenskyj decided to stay, and not run! Now we/they Usa and Eu have to finish what we started! Continue to support Ukraine as long they want to fight. Putin is in for the long run, and will not give up the new boarders or Crimea, unless The Russians replace him! China have time, and will wait until the right time to start their move in the South China sea. They have no rush.

Do people know what they really want, and if they do, do they strive to get it? The majority of people have their heads in Meta and Tik Tok or other social media, often called their heads up where the sun never shines! Giving up Ukraine as continuing the slaughters is both wrong, but as long this war have more than two parts with interests, ceasefire is still a long shot away. If this was just about Ukraine and Russia, the war would had been over after months. Based on Georgia war which lasted 16 days only.

Speed and power is good

You can get trapped with scooters, I have seen it several times. It is all about skills and luck and an food angel wouldnt hurt. We live today, and die another day

Talking about safety? Rather take my chances on a big bike

If you cant drive motorbike, or dont trust yourselves, neither see the risk versus the gain, dont do it. Had my best time in Thailand on motorbikes, wouldn't change that for anything. Met quite few I regularly rode with (40 -50 people at least), and as far I know, none of those crashed yet, or been in serious accidents. We talking people with 100 of thousands of km experience on thai roads. However at least or more than 10 people I have met have died of alcholism or poor general health because of their lifestyle. We talking about people below 70 years. And several others, continue their slow suicide bored to death, living the "dream in paradise" Anyway, motorbike is not for all, and if there was riders we saw as a risk, we never rode with them again.

If you easily offended, or in any way socially disturbed, follow Kamelas advise, Thailand is not for you

Who wants sex with an old man? Girls is the same, just business when they do

Cant be cured once you got it!

I believe most teachers in any civilized country would be in trouble for fouling around with their students.

If not same shop, yes

Christ sake, stay home After many years in Thailand, or elsewhere, I have an understanding why some poeple always meet trouble wherever they go, and it is not about Thailand or thai culture! Never experienced one incident in Thailand for 20 years, and very few any other places

Historically it is a understandable tactical and important move for Russia, meaning Ukraine have a strategic important role and also important resources for their stability and growt. Loosing the control of the neighborhoods is a defeat for russias position in the world.

One good thing about Putin, if you can say it is a positive thing thats up to each and one to decide. He have awakening up all the allies from the glasnost sleep, where everyone thought the whole world could be friends, and we all would manage to live side by side and continue to fight poverty and share all resources equally at the same time manage to grow a fear economy for each and one world wide! The world doesnt function that way, and finally each and one Nato member striving to reach 2% mark of GDP for their defense spending. Still a long way for Sweeden and Finland, both training and equipment, but it is a start. So I have to give Trump right in one thing, even it was for him just business, to push hard on Nato members, to implementing Us made weapon systems and technology. Empires falls because of internal conflicts, and Putin maybe saves us from internal destruction by showing himselves as the true enemy he is.

Im aware of both sides propaganda. Do you claim Putin have almost 88% backing from his own people in the election? Only tyrans and dicttors have such numbers

Well, he doing a good job to <deleted> up the western empire. For the russians, I can not speak, but for some russians, he is as much appreciated as Trump 😒

We really do not know the real numbers behind Putin, or are you just full of propaganda as well?

There will always be natural strategic boarders, and useally rivers, mountains, and lack of that, forest We will see where this ends. Regime change in Russia, or new president in Ukraine.

Thats also a bottle neck, but there is no doubt cia and other intelligence agencies have warned about giving high tech weapons, therefor Obama was criticized for not delivering weapons to Ukraine. Still the missiles have only a reach of 300km only which is the latest delivery of Himars

It is all depending on China, and what they choose to do now facing new Embargoes from Usa. A turning point is if Usa and Britain continue to deliver more of the long distance missiles such as Himars, and can strike supply lines and training bases in Russia. Still Nato countries hesitate to deliver enough high tech weapons, and weapons fast enough. Trust have been the problem since the start of the conflict to deliver high tech that could land in hands of russia.

The major sex tourism prostitution in tourism areas is based on a dream of a better future finding a man, and relocate. Then you have the grey marked who is freelancing, and really do not ask for money, but in good tradition accept any gifts. Prostitution in Thailand have many layers, from a handjob at a massage parlors to forced prostitution. Difficult to set a number on whats prostitution or not, but some here claim married women should be recognized as prostitutes as well, mostly from men who see all ladies as prostitutes. Sad really

Transfer money to my wife bank account as a gift, I got embassy letter for my visa. Still Im not staying more than 179 days this year, or in the future. 4-5 months a year is more than enough. I do not think I ever again will live permanent in Thailand. 7 years was enough.

Thank you, new I could trust you wobblybob.

I was not the one starting out aggressive, look back on your posts Yank is short for Yankee if you did not know. Cia was afraid of the internal problems in Ukraine, and advised Obama to not send high tech weapons. If you remember the boarders had private rebellion armies fighting russians. This is just a weak excuse after Trumps scandal denying aid and now the republicans halted the weapon deliveries in congress. F political deleted bull pie politics

Why Obama did not prioritized high tech weapons to Ukraine, because of corruption and the risk of handing technology to the russians. So,
