Taiwan extends military service

The people of the Donbas and Crimea see themselves as Russian. Not much chance of the US supporting ' self-determination ' there.

I am confused. Are you now arguing that even the Crimea should be returned to Ukraine?
 
In the last 127 years, China and Taiwan were united for only 4 years, 73 years ago. They share a language, but under that theory, America, Ireland, and Australia are all part of England.

Nixon sold out Taiwan, but that is not universal. It is time we push for legal separation where de facto separation has existed for 73 years.

' De facto separation ' does not exist for either the Chinese or international law. Taiwan is Chinese. The intended separation failed. Palestine is not Israeli, no matter what nonsense prosemitic US presidents try to sell for votes. The law keeps us civilized.

Russian origan somewhat evolved around Kiev. That was a long time ago but Russia started out where what is now called Ukraine.

Post a link to unbiased,factual proof that the above polls are 'spurious'?

If (when) you cannot?
Then your assertions they are, are baseless.


Do you support the Chinese Communist Party?

Yes or no?

All polls are spurious, dumbass.
I know little about the Chinese Communist party- and neither do you. For me it's the manifestation of the Chinese reaction against western imperialism- which you probably support. For YOU it's a scary specter that is used to keep alive your hatred of anything un-American that might get in the way of your addiction to consumerism.


Haw, haw..........................haw.

You can fuck off now or come back for more, nobody cares but you.

That's a fascinating field of study for historians and anthropologists.
 
It's all over the net. Russia was pushed to the north but there is little to no doubt that Russia originated around Kiev.

The name expanded to the north. Most evidence is the majority of the people did little moving around.
 
Correct. The original map of Russia is basically what we call Ukraine today.

The word "Rus" comes from the leaders of Kiev, but that is not "Russia." And it did not cover much of the Ukraine.

We are talking about ancient history, and not the history of the people. Are you going to claim that England has to be handed over to the Norman's again?

No. Ancient history shows that Ukraine used to be called Russia or Russo.

The leaders of Kiev were called Rus. They apparently got that name from their Viking ancestors. It does not appear to be a Slavic word. It was imposed on the people of Russia.

The people of England had Norman rule imposed on them... But also the people of Normandy. Norman refers to the Norsemen, who were once again Vikings. The people of Normandy are for the most part not from Norway, they are completely French. The people of England are for the most part not from Normandy, they are completely English.
 
At the time, the Carolingian Empire controlled both France and Germany, does that mean Germany has the right to invade France?
You're acting like Guille. It's clear what I'm saying so stop twisting my words. Both Germany and France will suffer because the US wants control over land that Russia sees as neutral territory.

Putin has made it quite clear that he will not accept neutral territory. Putin wants to expand Russia to its outer historical limits. That might include Arkansas, which Putin does point out has a Russian name.

You're full of shit, Walt. Keep sucking Biden's ass. You look uneducated by spreading US government propaganda.

You are very tied to Putin's propaganda.

It is a fact that Ukrainians have been able to stand up to Russia, a much bigger country. The only way that is possible is if Ukrainians were against surrendering to Russia. That is just a fact.

The rest seems like propaganda to me.

The US is imperialist. We have 4% of the global population yet US oligarchs own 92% of the world's wealth. When was the last time you were in an inner city stateside? You don't care that Ukrainians are cannon fodder for Biden's proxy war with Putin. Turn off msnbc and do your own research on why NATO keeps pushing east.

That is not even close to being true.

When was the last time you were in an inner city stateside?

I live close to Philadelphia and New York City. I travel through Trenton several times a week. I have never referred to it as "stateside", where do you live? It is not the USA.

You don't care that Ukrainians are cannon fodder for Biden's proxy war with Putin.

Ukrainians are fighting for Ukrainians, not for Biden.

Turn off msnbc and do your own research on why NATO keeps pushing east.

Ukraine had no hope of joining NATO, because a country with occupied territory can not join NATO. It did have a hope of joining the EU, which is the issue here. Putin could not allow a country so similar to Russia be economically and culturally successful, because then Russians might start asking why they have to live such pathetic lives.
 
US House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan in August infuriated China, which saw it as a US attempt to interfere in its internal affairs. China subsequently launched military drills near the island.




th




The US has no formal diplomatic relations with Taiwan but is bound by law to provide the island with the means to defend itself.


Surely, a ' law to provide the island with the means to defend itself ' is a call for war. Imagine the reaction to such a Russian law pertaining to Cuba.
