Like any brutally honest Russians, Putin is just calling a spade a spade...

To any European, they understand to old saying...if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck...

To the Americans, they will continue to assume that "American Exceptionalism" will make them immune to any repercussions after having cheat, lie and deceit like they had been doing for most of 20ths century.

And unlike the Russians, Europeans and Americans, the Chinese - has never play around with assumptions nor make muddy stance on where their Red Lines are.

Question is who else are be prepared to fight just by provoking the Chinese over TW issue ?
