I guess they thought the very-well-documented "snakehead" smuggling and plight of undocumented migrant workers were fake news.
I just hope that they won't turn around and blame their kids for their own misfortune.
There has been much talk on Chinese (and HK) internet that Russia and China have reached some sort of agreement for China to invest in eastern Siberia particularly regarding agriculture and industries. Russia has no one but China, and there is no turning back (towards the west) for them, while China gets ample natural resources.
This has been talked about for years, but given current conditions, it might be true this time. Nothing official yet, let's hope we hear something soon.
That may be stated intent of NATO but so far little proof of significant Russian losses.
If it is a race between who will run out of people first, this doesn't seem to favor Ukraine. Unless NATO starts sending in their own populations as well?
China will make sure that Russia never runs out of weapons, so the only fear is Russia running out of men. Firstly, NATO would need to deal with the existing Russian stockpiles bolstered by minimum application of additional dual use units such as suicide drones.
Russia with its very educated people can be a very good research partner for China. It would be very beneficial for Russia too. They have to diversify their economy. Post-soviet Russia couldn't use that human capital but it exists.
Look thru some tweets... Well its pretty accurate on the point of an "illegal" can get a car/license in Los Angeles and also very true car will get broken into quickly. The guy seems to hustle and willing to work laborous job. I imagine there must be a "chinese network" to help these guys out in the region.

Russians have some of the smartest people on the planet, but they won't be using that human capital to full capacity anytime soon as long as cronyism and corruption remain endemic issues. Google and Telegram could've been Russian companies, rather than simply being founded by Russian expats. Not to mention, since the war started millions of Russian tech workers have already fled overseas and as long as Russia remains the way it is, they're probably not likely to come back.
Is any other language still relevant in geopolitics today? Japanese is completely irrelevant.
This is not correct way at look at things. Telegram better stayed around UAE. That broaden its appeal.
The rest Google and such will be ideologically opposed so why wasted even human capital for some thing that can create internal conflict that will make the whole state dysfunctional. Russia is least corrupt state when you look at size of economy, development and debt.
I would say If Medvedev had gotten second term with full authority. Russia would be much more advanced in Nano tech and Semicon but Covid has waken up Putin as he is using Internet video conferencing.
Moscow deputy Mayor made statement that avg life expectancy in Moscow is 77 years but the other part she mention areas with much higher than Moscow. only healthy society can produce such population despite them being larger percentage of military. Arabs with much higher access to western trained doctors and medical facilities cannot match it and this is the criteria they are competing. Pay attention to word access. Even western residing population will not have this access.
