Reply to comment by hosseinsparda in A NATO Minnow Reels From Cyberattacks Linked to Iran: Albania has been the target of repeated digital assaults believed to be linked to its sheltering of an Iranian dissident group on its soil by DoremusJessup

I'm gonna be honest, I don't know a lot about them. I know they were considered a terrorist organisation for many years but I was under the impression they have renounced violence?

Reply to North Korea's Kim Jong Un mobilises young labourers in new housing plan amid economic woes. by tandemuis365

Houses and apartments are cool. But North Korea really needs more food at the moment. It's been a recurring problem. It's all mountains there. Harder to grow food in mountains. So you need to trade for food. But what are you going to trade? When your communist system can't seem to get any competitive industries going?

I mean the globe is hella competitive now. Even powerful nations get an industry wiped out every now and then because another powerful nation did it better. North Korea? Fuck man I don't know.

Reply to comment by heavy_highlights in EU slaps sanctions on top Russia officials, banks, trade by BrandYearg525

It doesn’t matter you voted or not, EU/US sanction the country and the persons who are responsible. your country’s actions effect lives of millions of people. Millions of Ukrainians has forced to leave their country, cities houses and their futures are ruined, thousands of people lost their lives, you are worried that sanctions will effect you because you didn’t vote for him:) Lol. According to cia factbook before the war russia had 850,000 active duty troops (300,00) ground troups, 40,000 airborne troops, right now its believed 300,000 troops in Ukraine, so Russia doesn’t say how many died and how many injured I dont want to make any estimations but according western official around 200,00 casulties, but if you consider Russia needed to go for mobilization and even the guy I know that who were just a conscript a few years ago now in Kupyansk after few weeks of training, we can guess that Russia uses most of military power in Ukraine. Troops are not deciding factor in war, Russians can collect 10 millions of troops but most soldiers die by artillery, if this would achieve something they would mobilize more soldiers but they dont have enough equipment. Having more people doesnt change anything if Ukraine will get much superior weapons. After we saw what happened in Bucha and other cities, I wouldn’t care less if Russians are going to have a hard time finding a bread. Russia should lose in Ukraine and forced to leave, doesnt matter what costs to Russians.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 74%. (I'm a bot)

> North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has mobilised young labourers to launch a new housing project in Pyongyang, state media said on Sunday, as he pushes for an ambitious plan to build 50 000 homes in the capital despite deepening economic hardships.

> In 2021, Kim unveiled a plan to build 50 000 new homes in Pyongyang by 2025, and state media reported the completion of the first 10 000 new apartments in 2022, including an 80-floor skyscraper.

> The new housing project would serve as "Another proud page in the history of youth movements" and a symbol of the country's socialist revolution and "Political struggle", Kim said.

Reply to 1,000 march in Helsinki to demand peace in Ukraine by chippychipper444

I always worry about it when they “demand peace”. I would like to clarify that the demand should be that Russia abandon Ukraine, including Crimea, and then start the process of paying for the reconstruction of every building and resource that they destroyed during the course of their illegal war. That’s what I mean by “demand peace”. Not that just the fighting stop

Reply to comment by CHTanwar in German chancellor visits India to boost India's relations with the west and possibly move India away from Russia. by CHTanwar

You are imagining things that I did not write, my fine reddit expert. I specifically ask about the timeline. You are writing that it is connected to Russia's war with Ukraine. There may be additional Russian imperialist wars, such as in Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Georgia. It may take 15 to 25 years.

Reply to comment by CulturalFlight6899 in Most G20 nations condemn Russia for war, China silent by bluelotus214

I really don’t think the entire the world is anti US, much less anti anyone. Yes there are problematic things in society today, but polarizing news and a percentage of people who are voicing their opinions loudly does not immediately mean it’s fact. I’ll stick to the point: I do not agree with you that india hates the US. I don’t think the US hates India. If that’s the case, we should listen to the likes of the the Republican Party who love Russia and want us to stop helping the Ukrainians. But does supplying support immediately mean we hate Russia? The US and the Europeans have been buying their oil from India who sources MOST of their oil from Iraq and some from Russia too. Does that make us pro Russia and pro Middle East? Do you see how your arguments are just meant to incite division and hatred?

Geopolitics is complicated. Our armchair opinions aren’t grounded well enough to make sweeping statements. Did you see the post about El Salvador yesterday? The news coverage was so bad and you’d think it’s the worst. But then you listen to individuals who live there and realize hey maybe the world is more complicated than we think.
