My question is "how many different tanks do we need"? Shouldn't the EU have just one, or possibly two MBTs? Why duplicate all the efforts and maintain different setups?
The US has one MBT.
Agreed, this looks very bad. One of the guys being elected is shady as fuck and was denied asylum because of it, then somehow became a Swedish citizen. He's declared bankrupcy yet somehow manages to fly back and forth to Somalia to strike "business deals". I'm not happy about this at all.
Very true, I have updated the post to include some of the text from the article.
True, but if you find yourself in a hole, first stop digging.
I think that song was also alright, but of the two that performer won with, it's the weaker one for sure. Can't say if it was a worthy winner because I haven't got a clue about what other songs competed that year.
Sweden also did poorly with a song I thought was alright. I think it deserved better.
Not really. We function pretty much the same.
I have a feeling that medieval peasants had a fairly good grasp of sex, seeing how they raised animals and all. They knew.
Ukraine had the Budapest Memorandum and a strong military. Didn't help much, especially when one of the guarantees refused to help and the other being the perpetrator.
What triggered the war IMHO was when Russias puppet Yanukovych was removed from power. It was then clear that Ukraine wanted to move west, and Russia wouldn't have any of that.
And NATO.
Russia using potential NATO membership as an excuse to invade Ukraine is just that, an excuse. Ukraine was turning west, and Russia couldn't accept that.
Everyone. The US is a huge and important market and will remain so for the foreseeable future. Let's not be delusional.
I expect companies will see trading with the US as more of a risk now, and take measures like requiring a premium, but trade with the US will continue, just by the sheer size of the US market.

That's my point. We should work as one entity, not necessarily one country, but at least stop wasting resources with everyone doing their own thing. We have SEVENTEEN different types of tanks in Europe.
When it comes to these things we should think of ourselves as EU first, country second, or we won't make it in the might-makes-right future that the US is trying to shape.
