stalling for time and doing nothing to actually achieve peace. Its words are worthless. They are aimed at those Western politicians who still hope for "agreements" with #Russia and rely on the system of rules and checks and balances that existed in the past, during the #Cold_War.

Russia has officially defeated the United States and taken away a large piece of NATO. However, NATO has grown stronger despite this event. Nikita Khrushchev said he would defeat the United States from the inside. Donald Trump came along and didn't know Russian history.

I usually don't deal with world-building given that none of my artistic projects get enough attention, but "Dieselstrom" is one of those projects to which I'm supporting ultimately. It's basically a Dieselpunk-styled future in which the Mexican revolution was won instead of stolen and gets the USSR's support and acknowledgement, in which Germany goes into a series of Soviet republics, in which the Zimmerman's Telegram is replied, in which USA goes Nazi and causes the WW-2, which is basically "USA vs The World", and finally USA disappears, defeated, and their lands are given back to a Soviet version of Mexico and Canada (and Alaska becomes part of the USSR). So, it's a good ending, in which the USSR rules the northern hemisphere of world, whereas the Andean USSR rules the southern hemisphere of the world... in cultural terms. I wanted to use the classic Mercator's projection, but I have some issues with math, so I took the forgotten Fuller's projection or "Dymaxion® Map" instead. Drawing it by hand was super hard, and it was the work of a full month (specially because I'm rather used to draw the Mercator's map instead) . As you can see, Greenland is part of a French-speaking Soviet Canada, whereas the Soviet Mexico starts upon the Yukon territory and ends up in the border with Panama; Haiti is a province of Soviet Canada, whereas the rest of Greater Antilles and Florida's peninsula belong to the Soviet Mexico. Lesser Antilles, the Spanish-speaking countries of South America, and the whole Antarctic continent are part of the Andean USSR, and the Eastern corner of South America that speaks Portuguese is the Soviet Brazil. Good ending for everyone. No more USA, no more Guiana, no more UK's Commonwealth, "las Malvinas son argentinas", etc.

3x Reinstituting #conscription is slower yet more cost friendly way to man the defense. It also produces large reserves.
However seems that many in west do not see the necessity at the moment and will just have salary based armies.
In a new long #cold_war that might be a folly
