Trying so hard to fend off Russia, but they can't put Taurus missiles on a truck and drive them to Kiev?
Converting the Ford factory in Detroit into a tank factory is "trying hard".
- petcat 10mo agoUSA has been strategically re-homing TSMC to the USA mainland for a long time now. 30% of TSMC's global production is scheduled to be produced in America by 2028. Several iPhone chips are already being produced domestically. This is what I would call "trying hard". Contrast with the EU which has done nothing to become self-reliant, and really just has no ideas. It is unfortunate.

- Cthulhu_ 9mo agoThey can, but they need to maintain their own security as well. Europe's war factories are running at full capacity at the moment. Plus there's still the political game being played as well, can't be too overt or aggressive because Russia might escalate. With nukes.
- ReptileMan 9mo agoYes. Russia will totally nuke the places where their elite's children, mistresses and often themselves live.
- ReptileMan 9mo agoDo you have any kind of analysis not written by a partisan hack that those Tauruses will change the tide of the war? There are couple of hundred of them in existence. Ukraine will burn trough them in 2 months and China will get the data how to counter them for free.
