"appeared to be from the third league."

I think our main problem with East European analytics was the west have been too much Moscow centrated, It took 100 years ( since USSR´s 20s) to understand that Moscow is a paper tiger ...

In psychology, centration is the tendency to focus on one salient aspect of a situation and neglect other, possibly relevant aspects.

The French general, ex-deputy commander of NATO forces in Europe, Michel Yakovleff, said this in an interview on the YouTube channel of former naval aviation crew member Xavier Tytelman.

Yakovleff also named several scenarios for the end of the war.

"Suddenly, it turned out that the russian army was a team everyone thought was playing in the Champions League, but it appeared to be from the third league.

when the hans were the good solders ?
- NEVER ! ( Korean WAR WAS an exception , read luttwak edward why )

China's playing the long game.

Which means they don't actually have to do anything for another 25 years. :sneaky:

China's military is loyal to the CCP and all of 'em spend one-third of their time in Party indoctrination and activities. Politics comes first over there. Corruption is the rule.

China has a 2 million active duty total force but one quarter of the USA budget for it. That's not hard to figure out -- their level of quality and preparedness.
