Posts from World War III: what are your predictions?Auto-translated
I think this war will be the last in human history. That is, a nuclear war. Most likely, it will be something like World War I. Let's assume: The Americans will try to force Abkhazia to sign a treaty on the deployment of a missile defense system in the country. Russia will resist. Europe will side with Russia. China will side with Russia. Japan will side with the USA. England and France will side with the USA. "Star Wars" systems – and the Apocalypse. But it's also possible that the war will be between the Indo-Chinese bloc and America.
Heh, first of all, this is more likely to provoke a new arms race than a war. Although, I don't know if we will be able to compete with the Americans anytime soon... In general, there is an opinion that nuclear weapons are a deterrent to the outbreak of a global conflict, and I support it. No matter how successful and powerful the first nuclear strike against one of the states may be, no matter how perfect the defense of the attacking state may be, they will receive a retaliatory strike, and it will be no less colossal, because Russia and the United States still have a very large nuclear potential.
O God of Earth and Altar, Bow down and hear our cry, Our earthly rulers falter, Our people drift and die, The walls of gold entomb us, The swords of scorn divide, Take not thy thunder from us, Take away our pride.

I'll allow for this: the Americans will try to force Abkhazia to sign a treaty on the missile defense system in the country. Russia will resist. Europe will side with Russia.

A naive assumption))) Europe, starting from Ukraine and ending with France and Great Britain, will never be on the side of Russia. Take, for example, the countries of Eastern Europe, such as Poland and the Czech Republic, which host American bases and missile defense systems, Ukraine and Georgia, which are eager to join NATO... And also the conflict over South Ossetia and Abkhazia, with Russia on one side and Georgia on the other, and Georgia, as is known, is very loyal to the USA, and they, in turn, fully support their vassals. In short, stability in the world is declining, and if the governments of some countries do not change, then who knows what this might lead to. P.S. All of the above applies only to the governments of the countries, and the population has nothing to do with it and is generally against the actions of the government (as in Ukraine). Although I recently read here translated comments on an article in one Polish newspaper, and there the Poles speak very unflatteringly about Russia, and most believe that America will save them from the evil "Katsapia"...

I read that Moscow refused to comply with the nuclear potential limitation, in response to Washington's silence. Well, isn't this a perfect start to a new Cold War?)))
Yes, I am the scythe in the field at summer, I am the thunder that awakens the earth, I am that which gives the night air its chill.
The National Bolsheviks plan to hold a referendum in a few years to "reject the current government," and if they are rejected, they will "come to Red Square with weapons and break into the Kremlin," because this contradicts the constitution, which means our government is trampling on the rights and freedoms of citizens.
They intend to stage a revolution. I don't really believe it, but couldn't it be the beginning of a war to conquer a weakened country?
They are still in the minority, so a revolution is unlikely, but there will definitely be some serious unrest. As if we didn't have enough problems with a potential civil war.

Major Whirlwind, I didn't give a link to an article about "Tomahawks" in the first post by chance. The fact is that:
"Under the current treaties on the reduction of strategic offensive arms, within which the coordinates of silo-based launchers and the number of land-based missiles have been reduced to 489 (as of 2007; expert estimates for 2012: 220–260 ICBMs[5]), and the remaining 9 strategic SSBNs are based[6], the deployment of 5000–20000[7][1][8](2007 – more than 6000; of which only 350 with nuclear warheads[5]) of these missiles on special ships and SSBNs adopted for service and intended for operation from shallow Arctic seas[7][1] in conjunction with the deployed system for detecting SSBNs and the national missile defense system being created[6][1] makes it possible to launch a preemptive strike that will guaranteed destroy Russia's nuclear arsenal.[7][9][10] Due to the minimal use of low-power (5 kt) nuclear warheads[7][6] and underground explosion charges (RNEP)[5], the consequences of the so-called nuclear winter are eliminated. The threat of using (blackmail) strategic nuclear forces and bribery (effectively used in Iraq) makes it possible to block the retaliatory strike of the remaining 10–20 missiles at the level of the enemy's command, without using missile defense."
In other words, the whole trick is that, according to some estimates, it is possible to launch an asymmetric nuclear strike. And how much of this stuff (that does not fall under the agreements on the reduction of strategic offensive arms) the Americans produce per year, you can read in the same link. Do you understand?
On Monday in Beijing, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and his Chinese counterpart, Yang Jiechi, signed a protocol on the demarcation of the border between Russia and China along the Amur River. As a result, China received Tarabarov Island and half of Bolshoy Ussuriysky Island. Now, the state border with China runs along the city beach of Khabarovsk, meaning Russia has decreased by 375 square kilometers. This is just the beginning; China is asserting its territorial claims on a corridor along the Tumen River (Tumannaya), which runs along the border between Russia and North Korea, giving China access to the Sea of Japan. Moreover, in Chinese educational institutions, during geography lessons, the Altai Mountains, Buryatia, Tuva, Primorsky Krai, Khabarovsk Krai, Amur Oblast, and Jewish Autonomous Oblast, Sakhalin, and parts of the Chita and Magadan regions are studied as integral parts of the country.
What do you think about this, guys? Guess what we got in return?

I read that this issue was being resolved for 40 years... And only recently did we give these lands to China, where, by the way, no Russians live. So, it seems that everything is exactly as it should be; China is our strategic ally, and we no longer have any territorial disputes with them. But I'm seeing these claims for the first time... In that case, screw them, they won't get these territories! I was born in Chita; I don't need China to become my homeland! Although, I don't think we will ever give them these lands. Japan still hasn't given us the Kuril Islands and doesn't plan to.

Maybe I should have posted this in the "World 3" thread, but then it would have taken longer to find people to talk to. 18:32 Video, link to the video from www.mail.ru:
