Reply to comment by reallyusefulaccount in EU imposes additional sanctions on Wagner Group for 'rights abuses' in Africa by DoremusJessup
I mean we can acknowledge both are bad and punish both. It doesnt have to be exclusive. But in one case France has an interest and in the other they dont.

Reply to comment by Expensive-Document41 in Putin casts war as a battle for Russias survival by R1ckCrypto
You're not wrong, but what matters for Putin is whether or not the Russian public believes they lost. They know it isn't going easily, but they don't know they have no hope of winning and that Ukraine will never be theirs. A difficult war is one thing, but retreating in shame and failure is another.
When they stop recruiting soldiers and instead they come home with nothing gained, Putin will look like a fool and will be overthrown. They will tolerate a brute, but not a failure.

if NATO is afraid to accept a member because they may have to defend them then NATO no longer has any reason to exist

He isnt wrong though. Legion d'etranger might as well be called wagner group but the French version. They didnt actually do different things in African countries.

Reply to comment by SuspiciousStable9649 in As Tokyo Electric Power Co. moves closer to discharging tons of stored water from its stricken Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant, local opposition has intensified and cries of betrayal are being heard by DoremusJessup
tldr and you can even not read the rest: safety before returns on investment is better than no return on investment because lack of safety
and to have more stable and safer nukes those paying for it just need to accept the fact that having a plant meeting or exceeding safety requirements is better than a plant being on maintenance half the time
also the radiation of a nuclear plant is lower than that of a coal plant due to the uranium in the coal's ashes - iirc
so if the reactor vessel isn't completely crap along with the other meters of concrete and whatnot there shouldn't be any concerns with radiation
I won't touch proper waste disposal since that's fairly.. you dig a hole far away in a special kind of rock and fill holes in the hole with the sticks and the sticks are in dry ceramic and multiple metal layers and all that is covered in concrete
man I'm tired sorry if this makes no sense

If Iran is backing Russia, it’s not so surprising that Saudi would choose Ukraine.

I've only heard of one threat to Belarus' sovereignty recently.
