Cheap energy is great for Germany's energy intensive heavy industries, and strategically important. Russia and Germany getting cozy and growing together economically couldn't have made the US or the UK very comfortable and I belie

Sorry, it seems I misinterpreted your comment. >Point is that Russia has no say over Ukraine's ambitions...That Russia must simply accept and move on. Well, that's the crux of the matter isn't it. They've not accepted

Mearsheimer is way more of an authority on the subject than you are, so if you're going to dismiss his claim as bullshit while claiming you're trying to combat the claim you could at least provide a link. Also even if Mearsheimer

I don’t agree at all. Emotionally invested fans of these stories clearly exist and describing them as the core audience isn’t a dishonest claim. Neither is it dishonest to claim that some of these fans feel alienated by the new versions of
