How come you correct my random spelling mistakes but you're OK with other people in here posting stuff that is totally wrong?

Like the dodgy AI making false statements, you're fine with that?

You started the forum. It's the post everyone will first look at.

So you're OK with somebody posting totally false things as long as it isn't in the title?
Please.... Let's all try to remain on the OP subject and not nit pick every word or typo. No body has ever got 100% in all exams at school. So we live with our errors and hope others will not repeat them by quoting them to amplify the problem.
Thank you for the use of your empathy.

I learn a lot from your posts. Thank you)
Yesterday Google recommended me an interesting video, I want to share with you.

Siberia, the Ob River (there is a lot of oil near it).
Two Бе-200ЧС aircraft (Beriev) are taking water in planing mode.
From 2003 to 2008 they were used to extinguish fires in Greece, Italy, Portugal, Bulgaria, Croatia, Montenegro.
In 2016 - in Israel.
In 2021 - in Turkey, Greece, Cyprus.

Very cool planes!

I don't mean to say that Russia doesn't have like anything at all either. Since fall of USSR they developed Kinzhai missiled that are pretty cool, even though they aren't impossible to shoot down and the T-90 tank which also is cool.

Russia's also very good technically at electronic warfare, like jamming signals and so on.

They have so many smart people, and it's a sad thing the country sort of goes to waste.

These aircraft use engines built at the Ukrainian plant "Motor Sich" in Zaporozhye. And this is just one example of how the economies of Russia and Ukraine were mutually integrated until 2014.
Destroying these ties was not beneficial to either Russia or Ukraine. And it is beneficial only to the overseas uncle - in accordance with the doctrine of Wolfowitz.

Oh the industries split in 1991 when Ukraine became independant.

Then yeah Ukraine was split between leaning to west and Russia 1991-2014 so I guess there was still a high level of coorporation.

I'd say Ukraine would be mucb better off, much richer, if they cut with Russia and got a trade deal with the EU. Porentilly joining EU down the line.

The economic growth of the former USSR countries in the EU - Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania - is really much, much, much, much better than what Ukraine had before 2014. There's just no doubt that it was a good thing for the former east block to sever ties with Russia and join the west.

Well, actually it's not, our whole oil imports depend on Russia, adding to that, it was Russia which helped us during the Indo-Pak war of 1971, which we won. The US Navy had sent its aircraft carrier to assist the Pakistani Navy, but due to the intervention of a Russian destroyer, the American strategy was thwarted. Now, India is strong and can defend itself on its own. But when we needed help, they helped us, so we trust them a LOT.

But I also do not deny the fact that war brings destruction whether it be Ukraine or Russia. And war should at all times be prevented, as the civilians are those who suffer.
