While totally fair, we also have the recent military agreement between Russia and Korea. It's not entirely clear why the US would be lying about it as it's not clear what they could really do with it. I can see Zelensky using it to try to get the US more involved, but I don't see the US angle here. Help me?

I think that's actually going to be pretty difficult. It would be a true triumph of counterintelligence to pull that off.

Also remember that "privatization" was coined to describe what the Euro fascists did in their economy. Do deprivatize is essentially antifa

I think it might get partitioned like Germany did. It would help the Western narrative engine to draw those parallels and it would allow the West to continue operating and building power while requiring Russia's constant attention.

Russia cannot occupy Ukraine and is unlikely to physically invade and occupy Kyiv directly. It is also unlikely that Russia will spend the resources to do to Ukraine what the US did to Korea.

I doubt the election will truly change what happens in Ukraine. It's just a question of the angle of the spin

Everyone except the European power structure IS imagining it. Literally it's the stated reason for Korea developing nukes - so that it can pursue everything else without the West choosing to bomb it back to the stone age for second time.

Sounds like a 2-year-long rope-a-dope

At this point, I think the Korean troops are there not only to get critical experience but as a reserve force so that Russia can push forward without leaving the homeland under-protected.

LOL. A perfectly reasonable post and the only thing you can respond with is an ableist ad hominem. Good luck navigating the world around you !

I dunno. Highly motivated, highly incentivized, backed by the most productive nations on the planet. I think those of us in the West are used to tranformative things taking forever because of the incompetence and the lack of incentives for the powers that be, and we forget how quickly our nations do transform things to harm us - DMCA, domestic surveillance, sharing intelligence, privatizing water, destroying habitats, etc.

The US is constantly repeating propaganda domestically and abroad all day every day. The least the UN can do is remain consistent in countering the narrative.

It always was
