Srettha said he extended the invitation to the Russian president during their meeting in Beijing on Tuesday. It was the first meeting between the two leaders who are in China to attend an international forum on the Belt and Road initiative.

 

“I asked Russia to promote mutual trade in agricultural commodities and increase investments in Thailand. I also invited President Putin to visit Thailand to strengthen our relations,”

Were completely screwed and broke... is there anyone he hasn't asked yet to invest in Thailand

 only partly true this is misleading statment

 

Thailand officially adopted a neutral position during World War II until the five hour-long Japanese invasion of Thailand on 8 December 1941, which led to an armistice and military alliance treaty between Thailand and the Japanese Empire in mid-December 1941. After allying itself with Japan, Thailand would go on to declare war against the British and Americans as well as assist the Japanese in supplying their troops through the completion of the infamous Thailand-Burma Railway. Thus, it is valuable to examine how this rapid shift in government policy took place in Thailand. 
 

Then after the japaneses started losing they swiched side's By July 1944, Phibun was forced to resign and his 1942 declaration of war was determined to be unconstitutional and therefore legally void. As a result, Thailand never needed to official surrendered to the allies. Instead, following Phibun’s resignation, Thailand did its best to repair diplomatic relations with the Allies and ceased the majority of its wartime operations.

I thought Putin was a wanted war crimes offender with an international arrest warrant out on him? Does Thailand not respect international law.

It's not international law but american fantasy. Nobody gives a rat's ass about that warrant. It's a lame US propaganda stunt that is gonna backfiring showing in the process how useless international institutions have become. I'm not a very big fan of Putin but I'm less and less a fan of the US as well.

There is no draft at Russia now. Draft was announced at September 2022  and this created a load of negative consequences, so the government shut it after a month or so. 

You're conflating draft with mobilization.

There is always a draft in Russia.

There is no mobilization now.

There likely won't be until they have their fake election next year.

So you're kind of a fan of Putin? That's very telling.

Well he is an butthole but a mercyless one with balls. I give him that.

As for Joe Biden and his democrats... What a bunch of losers.

They might actually be worse than Trump and his thugs.

The end of an era...

if we got rid of nation states, then people would have equal access to all those things you mentioned, no?

 

Nations are a figment of the humans imagination, just like religion and the tooth fairy..

 

They arent real, and nationalism is the indirect cause of millions upon millions of deaths worldwide.

Couldn't agree with you more. Borders and the states they define are purely political structures, and as such they are temporary.

Such a sharp argumentation. You blew me away.

[Gknrd]

  You guys need to start reading the tea leaves.  At this point it doesn't matter what anyone says. If Westerner, European, Japanese, your days are numbered in big T.  

It's not going to matter if you start waving the Chinese or Russian flag, if a westerner you are going to be ousted..

I would never have thought that I would ever say that. But I want my Uncle back. At least until some really good alternative would be available and overwhelmingly supported. I suddenly even doubt that it would have been what should have been obvious after the last elections.

Well one country has a Democratically elected President who is trying to broker peace in the Middle East and the other is a murdering dictator so your fan appeal needs polishing.

same as what is happing in the middle east       this will never happen  you saw what happend during covid when there was no tourist how you guys started crying no tourist no money  this is laughable  think you are the one needing to read tea leaves

[Gknrd]

 Next, visa requirements will be increased to levels where Westerners and a few others will not be able or willing to deposit it in the banks.  Government will start hyping up anti western sentiment to where the locals will start intimidating the expats and tourists. Won't be long now.. 

This move guarantee's no western company will invest in Thailand. So, all hopes will be with China and Russia.  As investments and money flows in from the two and none from the west. That is basically it.

Mission acomplished.

The PM is acting for the interests of his people, for Thailand. Not for the interests of the US or Europe who are equally only looking into their own benefit,

 

Russia has cheap oil, cheap ressources to sell. Why must Thailand boycott Russia when EU (European Union ) nations are openly permitted to maintain russian imports of gas and other basic products ?

 

How about the USA who voted a bill at the Senate permitting the import strategic ressources from Russia (like fertilizers etc) . Bill voted just a month after the USA imposed Russian sanctions to the gullible European Union.

 

Why not buy our oil or gas directly from Russia ? Currently, Russia is selling it's crude to many other free nations, who are refining it and selling it back to Europe and making substantial benefit. How far can western political absurdity go ?

 

The world economic is global but remains a delicate ecosystem where boundries are far beyond any propaganda or bullying from the USA or Europe. The BRIC nations are a future superpower with economical giants like Bresil., Russia India and China and many others to follow.  The dollar supremacy is comming to it's end once fossils and oil will be banned in new vehicle imports in Europe around 2035.

 

The first duty of any head of state is to take care of one's own, before trying to save and pay for the rest of the world.  That is precisely the mistake Europe is making that is plunging the European economy in an unprecedent economic depression and social chaos. The Thai PM is fully right in keeping doors open with Russia for economic and diplomatic issues.
