    This Indian news channel has some good reports. The Moldova angle makes sense as that population is very pro Russia. Interestingly India is one of the nuke powers that hasn’t condemned Putin. I guess they are taking a common sense how does this affect us approach....

    If by common sense you mean a deal they did with russia that likely excludes them saying anything against russia.
    Russia is still one of India’s largest arms suppliers. Around 23% of Russian arms exports between 2016 and 2020
    Foreign Secretary Shringla said Monday that Russia has started delivering its long-range S-400 surface-to-air missile defense systems to India, based on a deal the two countries signed in 2018.
    India and Russia on Monday signed more than two dozens deals across a variety of sectors and inked a 10-year defense cooperation pact.
    The 28 agreements concluded Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to New Delhi and meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the 21st India-Russia annual summit.
    Media reports also said that the two countries signed a deal to locally manufacture more than 600,000 Russian AK-203 assault rifles in India.

    Some More Peace Keeping

    I see Blinken has just made a trip to Moldova. He must be clocking up the air points.

    https://www.scmp.com/news/world/euro...gtype=homepage

    Assumedly to reassure the recently elected pro-western Moldovan government that "all required western support will be provided".

    And if that annoying little break-away province of Transnistria gives them any problems, well, there's probably still some Stingers and Javelins left in stock (which could be air-freighted over). Who said diplomacy is dead ?

    Well this is interesting even the neutral swiss had launched unprecedented action against Putin and his cronies

    Abandoning neutrality, Switzerland backs anti-Russia sanctions
    The Swiss Federal Council announced on 28 February that it froze assets of a list of individuals and companies, noting that "the financial sanctions against Russian President Vladimir Putin, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov are also to be implemented with immediate effect.

    Switzerland followed sanctions imposed by the European Union, abandoning Bern's traditional reserve by ordering the immediate freezing of assets belonging to Russian companies and individuals appearing on the EU blacklist.

    And it went further on Friday, adopting even stricter EU sanctions applied in response to Moscow's invasion of Ukraine that started on 24 February.

    Exporting goods that could enhance Russia's military capabilities is prohibited, as is the exportation of certain goods and services in the oil sector, and aviation technology.

    Sometimes, one is forced to sort ones own priorities and act accordingly.

    I’ve posted a few times about the strategic importance of high density stored energy that is easy to move... eg liquid petrol and diesel and that with war being a constant of human society we are never going to have a silly zero carbon world.....

    Anyhow this article links to several credible sources claiming Russia funded green groups to truck western countries into crippling themselves energy wise..... If Putin allegedly influenced American elections then funding communist greenie groups would be a picnic.... Hell Greta Thugberg even looks like she could be his secret love child released from a kgb training acedmy to attack the west and lead our youth astray....

    And on top of grain shortages... Russia is number one in Urea exports and numberctwo in Potash...
    On top of that European fertilisers are very dependant on natural gas supplies for the nitrogen production in many fertilisers....
    None of these sanctions are without a penalty on the free world....

    So, another take from one LazerPig - It's quite Meme-y, but I came across this channel prior to any of this and his analysis on Weapons Systems is very interesting (even if he's completely wrong about the A-10 and my Beloved Brrrrt).

    Note - this isn't about Politics, but about the pure Military aspect.

    In his book Bolton said it was customary to use USAF aircraft. It was when his opposition in the White House got in Trump's ear, and Trump forbade him to use military aircraft that Bolton resigned.
