@Radical_EgoCom @Yaminosenshi although I have a romantic vision of Slavic people (and in particular Russians - and I'm perfectly aware of how despicable russian imperialism has been in the last 2 centuries) as the one that paid the highest blood tribute to defeat the Nazis and the pushed the boundary of science and technology bringing the first man to space, the big weight there is obviously China, with an economy that is an order of magnitude bigger than Russia and being, in essence, the biggest industrial economy in the world. It was China who decided that the Ukrainian war had to begin after the Beijing Olympics.
