    Where next

    If the Ukraine situation is brought to a conclusion anytime soon, which is big if. Where will the tensions (or political and economic need for war) break out next?
    We had the forever wars then they ended and boom we had Ukraine. Not a coincidence in my book.

    Taiwan is next.

    The good news is that it will take at least 7 years for Russia to recuperate from this war.

    Russia is in on it with China? I mean, I get why our Chinese sympathizers would deny that or else they have to admit it.

    No doubt in my mind that Russia would offer air support to China if the USA entered. They could even use it to seize disputed islands with Japan.

    In the case of Russia, if you are not growing then you are dying and Russia is dying. They failed as an economy and their population is actually shrinking. Acquisition is all they have.
