Meanwhile the US is going to ask all big Chinese companies to get get ready for war production. Sad our domestic production capabilities are so low these days.
It sounds like Putin is planning another war. It's not going to be Georgia again. Ukraine is also not likely, as the west would protect them if Russian aggression went any further than it has previously. I also don't think it's for the end game in Syria. It must be something else. Not for a conflict with the US...Sounds more like he expects a conventional, non nuclear war to come up. .against someone where Russia needs all its might.. who could that be? Not a nato member. ...hmmm..
