Sounds like they change their reason for the war every week. But this it at least something I would believe. To have Putin sitting there and thinking "well, we are too stupid to be relevant nowadays even with our gigantic size and natural resources so let's just get even bigger with "snacking" Ukraine to reach at least a little bit of USA's importance". I also don't like to see a few countries on this planet to be so dominant but what kind of reason is that to start a war with another country? |
That's how humans have always been. The Babylonians made everyone around them look like a joke, the Persian/Medes did the same, then the Greeks under Alexander, then the Romans. While no country since the Romans has been quite as heavily dominant over the rest of the world, the world has always had a super power or two at any time.
The only reason China can compete with the USA is because they have like 3-4 times our population. If you evened the populations then their GDP would be a joke compared to America right now. USA is the current super power, there is always a super power, just how it is.
