Russia really needs to understand I think Europe won’t fold easily.
They already do, that's why they keep it at SMO.
You need to understand that they have time on their side.
Russia's current goal isn't to get Zelensky on his knees, but to get the US on it's knees.
And how do you think Europe is building out it's green energy?
Those windmills and solar panels don't pop out of the ground
and with Europe and the US de-industrializing, who do you think is building them?
Until this year I thought the train was the transportation of the past.
But trains are the cheapest form of long-range transport on land as they are electric that don't need heavy batteries.
The largest competitor to the train is the ship.
Ships can carry lots and lots of containers and don't need any kind of road maintenance.
The only two disadvantages of ships are that they are slow moving and the fact that they can only be cheaper when the cost of gasoline/diesel/bunker fuel remains low.
