China has the luxury of being a totalitarian state. Xi does not need to worry about upcoming elections. Unfortunately in Europe any moves that requires great sacrifice might be political suicide.

I am assuming undetectable waves. That is the enemy won’t know where the waves are being fired from or even that they are being fired at all.

Yes but they need to obey Turkish law if they want to offer their services there. Like how US websites have to show a “cookies” disclaimer within the EU due to EU privacy laws.

Eh as much as I would like it to be true, I would take the word of captured enemy combatants with a grain of salt.

Well as a company bluesky, would need to abide by the laws of where it is offering it’s services.

They can’t just ignore the request of the country’s government. They could either challenge it in court or stop offering their services altogether.

Ofcourse! A convicted pedophile is a convicted pedophile until proven innocent.

With a life sentence you can at least get some of your life back if proven innocent. With the death penalty not so much.

It is not the severity of the crimes but the risk of executing innocents. A person could be a convicted pedophile but new evidence might reveal that they were innocent.

I read it as credibility with Russia’s citizens. They believed that their government will prevent any attack coming to Russian soil.

Eh when the founders are dead long enough, people stop caring. Ex: Chanel
