    There's nothing unique to them, tech or IP wise. You can set up the same sweat shops in Honduras and Guatemala for maybe $.20 more. When Trump put tariffs in China, the immediate reaction for some companies was to move to Vietnam.

    China especially has way, way more to lose than gain from an economic bloc like that.
    El, up late trying to seal Putin off, tighter than a nun's snootch on the Sabbath.

    tee, hee.

    No, Trump really might be alive or not be in jail in 2024.

    What kind of economic power does India have? Russia has the economy of Spain. Wow...

    The reason both are players is they are nuclear powers and huge; and you are cheering miniscule financial agreements.
    Russia is India's main supplier of arms

    There is that small detail.

    The goings on in UKR is barely a story there.

    Btw, are there any historical examples of US sanctions regimes that worked? Either for regime change or to achieve immediate political ends? None immediately come to mind for me.

    Also losing the Cold War happened to have consequences. C'est la vie.

    Looking more and more like Putin is looking over his shoulder. I may lose that bet.
