  • A constantly repeated argument in the West is that Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine is illegal under international law and that Ukraine thus has not only the right to defend itself, but also the right to ask other states for help in defending itself. This is indisputable, as this conclusion is based on the principles of the UN Charter. But does the UN Charter thereby also give the West the right to continue this war at will, to seek a military victory over Russia and to refuse all peace efforts on these grounds? Certainly not!

  • Ireland is such a based EU country

  • Chinese business is, by nature, more based on relationships than it is on contracts. The same will be true for any "sanctions" instituted on Israel.

    In the past, Chinese authorities may have been willing to overlook some paperwork. Now, they'll inspect everything three times. In the past, Chinese authorities may have turned a blind eye on some taxes. Now, they'll make sure every single item is taxed appropriately.

  • "gee why did he set himself on fire? must just be something people do"

    it's laughable how US media attributes self-immolation in Tibet to what must be CPC oppression, but self-immolation in the US must just be a cute little coincidence due to poor mental health

  • The Chinese J-20, American F-22, and Turkish KAAN (air superiority fighters)

    The Russian Su-57, Chinese FC-31, and American F-35 (more focused on CAS)

    India? The EU? Japan? Iran? It's becoming increasingly clear who the world leaders in defence are, and the EU should be terrified.

  • For more than a decade, the United States has nurtured a secret intelligence partnership with Ukraine that is now critical for both countries in countering Russia.

    Maidan Revolution: February 2014

    Today: February 2024

    Thanks for the confirmation of what we all knew already: that the US was directly involved in instigating and supporting colour revolution in Ukraine to counter Russia.

  • Arabic, Latin American, Southeast Asian, Chinese (obviously), Indian (obviously)...

    Wait, isn't this the same map of countries which recognize Palestine?

  • All brown people are the same ig

  • Yes

  • Lmfao can't believe she took down her social media

    Journalists these days

  • Russia has no real issues continuing the war for another cycle. Term limits destroy America's ability to functionally engage in long-term conflicts without turning them into quagmires.

  • Inb4 shitlibs tell me the Quincy Institute is Russian agitprop

  • Muslims are cockroaches, Crimea deserved it, deep nationalism.

    Basically, fascism with a 21st century coat of paint.

  • Scholz is trying to cover for his own inability to discuss Germany history stretching back more than 80 years.

  • They literally were negotiating at the start of the war for this exact outcome: Russia pulls out and Ukraine maintains neutrality.

    Johnson threw a wrench in those plans.

  • The Wahabbi interpretation of Sharia law in Saudi Arabia maintains that acts of homosexuality should be disciplined in the same way as adultery - with death by stoning. Homosexuality or nonconformant gender expression can also be punished by corporal punishment, flogging, imprisonment or forced ‘conversion’ therapy. 

    This isn't unusual in the Middle East. There's a number of reasons for this (mostly based on colonialism and imperialism by more powerful players), but this is unfortunately the status quo.

  • Meanwhile "Western countries" enforcing the so-called "rules-based international order" don't give a fuck about the ICJ ruling on literal genocide.
