    This was my take on this too, it's the only path to ending the war that preserves both sides. The Ukranians have only one path out of this unfortunately due to having their hands tied behind their backs by the West and that path is a negotiated settlement. In any negotiation, you have to give...

    Europe had already started planning for a Trump transition prior to the election. I remember reading months ago that England and Germany signed a reciprocity agreement to go to war if either country was attacked. Various side-deals like this have or are in the process of being made. Russia...

    OT: American Politics

    The border became a big problem for a lot of people once they started realizing it wasn't just the southern US dealing with it. The democrat narrative of not criminalizing illegal aliens in hopes of turning them into citizens and getting their votes eventually backfired. As it should have. In...

    I don't know why everyone shits on Edmonton, I loved it when I visited. People are nice, some nice homes and malls to waste time in. I guess my personality type is drawn to that. Thoroughly enjoyed it, only thing I hated was the sun not setting before 11pm in June which fucked up my sleep clock.

    OT: World Politics

    I'd be interested in knowing who bought those bonds. However in the current economic setting, it's clear the interest rate will keep rising in Russia so that would make a variable bond more interesting than a fixed rate bond. Regardless, I'm not sure who'd be crazy enough to invest in the...

    OT: World Politics

    I don't believe there's a risk of bankruptcy if it's in the Russian Ruble, because the government will just print more money. That's where the currency risk comes in, printing money will devalue the currency, meaning investors get less back. Clarification: are you talking about government...

    The currency risk is what's stopping people from investing in these bonds. They'd have to index payments to other, more stable. currencies.
