      China and Russia are colonial powers, too.

      Crazy how tankies think it’s only ok if you do it to your neighbours.

        To be fair, China does it all over, especially in Africa. Russia probably would too if they could.

            Oh, for sure. I just meant they’d be doing it overseas if they could. Right now they’re only able to do it locally, and are currently not able to continue because Ukraine is holding them off.
