I’m genuinely surprised at the amount of licks Russia has been taking esp in the aftermath of the recent Ukraine developments; I must wonder, is it possible that Russia doesn’t want to go full war mode on Ukraine because it is already in defacto war mode against essentially American NATO in Ukrainian colours?
ie Russia is already giving its all in Ukraine against nato and the result so far is stalemate?
Did US go full war mode on Afghanistan or Iraq by a national mobilization? No. Was the 20 years war a stalemate? Yes. Was USA already giving its all? No.

You get your answer. You can compare Sino-Vietnamese border conflict as well, the answer is the same.

It all depends on what answer you want to get, not what the facts tell you.

What happened to Nestorianism in China, and in general? Why did that sect of Christianity went out like the dodos
There weren't any Christian powers to propagate it in Asia at the time.

It was patronised for a while by a few Mongol emperors during the Yuan dynasty (although I don't think any actually converted) but later rulers assimilated to Chinese beliefs and culture.

It was Parliament than imposed the ban, not the government. They did it because 7 MPs are being sanctioned by China.
It is pathetic for UK to ban such a trivial thing. It means basically UK doesn't have any independent foreign policy left. And don't make any stupid excuse for the UK as the 7 MPs were sanctioned for retaliation. It is the UK poked China first not the other way around.

Well. Maybe Russia doesn’t actually have to care about Armenia all that much.

Iran doesn’t like Azerbaijan likely due to their close relation with Israel.

I saw some photos of the atrocities being committed. I am shocked and disgusted...
