The bit about the Remus 600, a torpedo-shaped underwater drone, being captured was the only interesting thing in Pepe's two articles that I didn't already know.

It's not great that tech will end up on the black market. Especially once they're outfitted with AI. I read a sci-fi story years ago about the results of a global war where AI naval drones ended up basically sinking everything and some guy had to go out from an Antarctic base crammed into another drone to kill one of those things. If that sort of thing happens, you can kiss the global economy goodby - unless nations can get by based on land trade routes within their own regions. One wonders what happens to the island nations like Malaysia and Indonesia.
The Chinese "experts" apparently aren't any more well versed in modern war than the West if they think this Ukraine thing will go beyond 2024. That's not surprising; as Martyanov says, only Russia (and to a lesser extent, the Germans - in the past, anyway) actually understand war. The current Chinese military doesn't have any experience of the sort of conflict in Ukraine to make any capable judgement.

Hm...
These are one of the oldest civilisations on earth, way back for 5000 years...
Yes, they are living fosils not in their creational peak, lately, but we can learn from their 5000 year civilisation, A LOT.
Please get back to us in 2025. It’s a pity you’re not an advisor to world governments everywhere.
Yes, it is.
