I thought that there were not only political but also topological reasons for the significance of the gap but I can’t find anything besides that some historic battles happened there.
So the question is why he would be conquering the Baltics. For Russia’s glory seems to be the preferred answer. But strategically it doesn’t make sense to conquer more land for Russia, without, as it seems, any security improvements at all.
Russia, or rather the Russian Federation and its members, like EU member states are losing significance, e.g. by having to implement EU regulations.
Thanks, that’s good enough for me.
It’s enough if they would join in 10 or 20 years.
Wir haben die Farbenrevolutionen in Nordafrika, Syrien, Iran und Ukraine bejubelt und unterstützt. Ein bisschen hellblaue Demokratie kann doch dann nicht schlecht sein.

Jeder kennt das Gedicht. Gleiches Prinzip.
Dabei sollte „amerikanische Politik … letzten Endes von der Vision einer besseren Welt getragen sein: der Vision, im Einklang mit langfristigen Trends sowie den fundamentalen Interessen der Menschheit eine auf wirksame Zusammenarbeit beruhende Weltgemeinschaft zu gestalten. Aber bis es soweit ist, lautet das Gebot, keinen eurasischen Herausforderer aufkommen zu lassen, der den eurasischen Kontinent unter seine Herrschaft bringen und damit auch für Amerika eine Bedrohung darstellen könnte

Der erste Teil wurde anscheinend gestrichen.
If the EU were such a big bully, nothing would stop Hungary from just leaving.
Hungary is landlocked. Serbia is on its way into the EU.
The EU could be a bully that is so big that they cannot be left.
Putin has made a decision to never use Internet for anything.
What’s your source? I could only find that Putin doesn’t use a smartphone which is very rational in his position.
The German Wiki states that his parents gave him a car. So he is not the child of a single-mother. He is also the third child, not the second.

What are your sources for Putin’s self-isolation?
Der Artikel erwähnt den Riesenkauf der Speicherchips durch OpenAI nicht. Ist das Inkompetenz oder massive Fehlinformation? Nur zu schreiben, dass KI Speicher braucht trifft nicht den Kern des Problems. Der Wettlauf alleine ist es nicht sondern die Lieferverträge haben den Markt geeckt.
Da die Produktionskapazitäten für die benötigten Siliziumscheiben – die sogenannten Wafer – weltweit begrenzt sind, priorisieren die Hersteller in der Produktion jetzt diese lukrativen KI-Chips.
Eben nicht. Zwei Hersteller können nicht entscheiden, weil sie ihre Produktion an OpenAI verkauft haben, unter Wert, da zeitgleich und geheim.
Read up about Atlantis. There is no excuse for not knowing.
Leider doch. Das Problem ist nicht das Fett sondern Zucker. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperglykämie
Und ein wenig habe ich das Gefühl, dass für Frieden und Harmonie der wohlgemeinte Versuch nicht mehr reicht. Wir haben keine verlässlichen Medien, wissen nicht wo die wirklichen globalen Konfliktlinien verlaufen, und steuern auf den dritten Weltkrieg zu.
Es heisst ja auch Cum-ex.
Anywho I don’t believe the dollar will only decline 3 cents against the Euro in 2026.
The EU is going to buy US weapons and energy for billions and pledged billions to invest in the US. All of this has been prepared, by all politicians, in all western countries.
Don’t forget the AI. You have made your house a target. Maybe not now but if you haven’t been careful your real life identity can be deduces automatically from what you have posted.
Are there enough shares for everybody to buy? If not and people only own index funds then where do those funds put the money?
remember chicken being less than 1 dollar per lb
The horror that is necessary to make chicken that cheap should have triggered political change long ago.
How do you know that gold is not already overvalued?
If you buy gold remember that nobody has to honor certificates in a crisis but that gold at home is also not secure, especially if you start paying with it.
Don’t. Remember the classic
markets can stay irrational longer than you can remain solvent
The top 10% own more than 50% of the assets. If the billionaires actually have class solidarity they will simply keep owning dollars and stomach the losses from China selling their government bonds. Chances are that everybody else keeps their bonds because the US still have some influence.
I would guess that they could also put China on an embargo and just reject to trade their bonds, much like the EU does with Russia.
The US have killed Gaddafi for creating a reserve currency for Africa. Trump would be dead if he actually would be threatening the dollar.
That’s what I mean. Somebody made them do it, one way or the other.
They also buy back shares and reduce their shareholders.
The ROI will drop if companies have too much money.
That just shifts my question. What can those funds buy?
