So it's roughly equivalent to people in the US who wear hunting camo as an unironic fashion statement?

Putin should learn from Pyotor the Great, create a new capital for Russia out in the swampy wastes.

What do you think all the work done in Sochi was really for? :v:

I've been wondering if this will remain feasible considering the Northern Passage has been opening up thanks to global warming. Seems like if that becomes a regular thing, it would interfere a whole a hell lot with trans-arctic shipping.


I think on of those Eurasianist plans is to turn Russia into a transportation empire by enabling cross-continental connection throughout the world, much in the way Britain's navy and later telecommunications cable networks allowed them to do things that no one else at the time could do and influence nations that could do things that they couldn't. That way, if someone disagrees with them, they can cut them out of their connections and leave them stranded. isolated, and starving.

We all know the real reason is to facilitate Russian ~vacations~ in Alaska.

I think that's less about using the cow to heat up the living space, and more using the warmth of the living space to keep the cow from freezing to death.

Wouldn't they need to cut off sea access? Or will the separatists just find a Russian destroyer lying around.

Oh I'm sure Russia will insist those ships they took from the Ukrainian navy in Crimea belong by right to the Separatists.
