“So....Russia still has the GDP of NYS so what are they really gonna do?”
What the heck does GDP have to do with it? Nothing! As someone else pointed out Japan’s GDP was much smaller than ours in 1941 when they sunk a good portion of our naval fleet in the pacific. It took us years to win that fight and thousands of American lives. GDP did not make one bit of difference and it does not now when it comes to Russia. Their GDP did not stop them from marching in and taking over Crimea — which no one even attempted to stop.
It is a good thing you are not an American military leader!
Anyways, i do not understand why the USA and Russia cannot become good friends.
Why?
This is a subject i just don’t know that much about.
Why are we still enemies in 2020?
Wouldn’t the Russian economy prosper with a good relation with the US?
USA and Japan are now close buds why not Russia?
Is it a PRIDE thing?
i just dunno..
anyways as far as i know CHINA is by far a much more formidable and dangerous enemy than the Soviet Union ever was, Their CCP tentacles are embedded everywhere..
