One idea might be that China should ban companies that don't operate at least 30% of Chinese-built ships from accessing Chinese-owned ports.
Geopolitical distortion on world trade from the US should be countered by one from China. It should ideally be surgical, and proportional to negate the negative effects of the US's distortion without adding any of its own.
this is extremely stupid. Historical precedent established in the aftermath of Desert Storm is that attacking forces enforcing a no fly zone is legal and does not trigger Article 5 of NATO.
The difference between Russia and Iraq is that Russia has Su-57s and S-400s which can snipe Eurofighters and F-16s with R-37s over Ukrainian territory, and Russia actually has nukes.
Why would Russia EVER agree to NATO troops inside Ukraine? That would constitute de facto NATO membership for Ukraine in all but name. This is utter stupidity on the part of France and UK.
they might just try to impose it like they did to Iraq. The difference is that they simply don't have the power to do so against Russia, but their hubris and delusion may blind them to that fact.
European countries have F-35 (*provided that US gives them activation codes...)
That wouldn’t work. Companies will simply set up different companies. Need to charge $2M per non-China built ships to discourage shipping companies order ships outside of China.
How many of those do they have that actually works and also, since they are single engine aircraft with sheath that can be long picked up by modern radar, it’s almost as though they are setting themselves up for massive failures, something that I don’t mind seeing for these proud assholes
Things are truly crazy now in the world, with developments, mainly from the US perspective that they want an end to this war in Europe.
Who can blame them. President Trump knows, that technically speaking, the United States did not actually start this war, but the United States is paying for it. So it just makes sense to stop.
Regardless of what we think of this United States decision, that to me is not even the crazy part.
The crazy part is the reactions of the Europeans. Like WTF?
It is that expression, do not bring a knife to a gunfire.
What exactly are the Europeans really saying today?
Make promises that everyone knows that they cannot deliver on, there is no bottom to how far this can collapse.
That is kind crazy if you ask me.
Perhaps the Americans saw through the EU bullshit and had enough. They sure are acting that way.
They are probably trying to repackage their old reported strategy of “Ukrainian” F-16s in Polish/Romania Airbases. Have the French and British take off from these.
Try provoking the Russians into responding and if the airbases get obliterated with oreshnik missiles. Attempt to trigger article 5. If they don’t then move in the tiny ground forces they cobbled together.
