Top U.S. General Says Russian Subs In Atlantic ‘More Active Than We’ve Seen Them in Years’

 Reuters: U.S.: Russian Subs in Atlantic ‘More Active Than We’ve Seen Them in Years’

“The Russians have been more active than we’ve seen them in years,” Army Gen. Chris Cavoli, the top commander for NATO and U.S. military operations in Europe, told Congress on Wednesday of Moscow’s undersea capabilities.

Trump did not start a single war
Obama started several
Biden.. he will start WW3
Democrats lloooove killing people in their name of "justice" and "democracy"

Just that Ukraine is one of the most corrupt countries in the World, is NOT a democracy and is even going so far to imprison people and opposition forces who speak out against the war. So they are just like Russia.
