#2 Between this and the other stories today, sounds like they've been bullied by their Chinese patrons into at least pretending to play nice and grow their economy instead of conquering food donations by making faces across the border. *This* is what you get when militarist goons marinating in sixty years of High Stalinism try to play nice.

#3 They're not 'reducing' the number of military personnel, they're just re-deploying them...

Seems like a "food for work" program to me.

And I thought they already tried this in 2011 or so.

#4 No surprise here.

The NOKORS still keep Russia on the side to offset agz overlord China, wid post-Cold War, 9-11 Russia being synonymous wid GERMANY as both are BFFS = strategic partners to the other.
