This means RuAF is using strategic bombers in this war now?
always been i think.
Surely you meant Colombia.
With regards to McDonald's, Starbucks, et all, what's going to happen in Russia is that they won't stop operating, the Russian franchise will continue to operate in violation of trademarks. Its just like there are fake McDonald's and Starbucks in places like Iran.
Most McDonald stores in Russia aren't franchise so McDonald is taking a loss here. Starbuck stores in Russia actually are operated by Kuwaited-based Alshaya group. Not sure of the arrangement, Alshaya group probably is the one taking the loss at the moment.
If these stores don't reopen in the long run, I agree that Russia would probably just take over them.
They have the National Guard of Russia. There are units of that in Ukraine right now.
I'm surprised they haven't already, most of their supplies are probably sourced domestically. Germany did the same with coca cola in WW2.
I wonder how accurate they can make their big mac sauce, or the generic mcdonalds taste you get whereever you are.
Indeed, Fanta IIRC.
They are losing this proxy war and in an embarrassing way.
If it gets more embarrassing, it could change the world.
Blaming China is a classic deflection strategy.
It is like saying, "They are not doing anything either!"
There are no good options now. The best option is to surrender, then try again.
Just like the 36 tricks said, the last trick, to run away, is the best!
