Sounds like it's more of a recognition of the reality on the ground, but whatever. Lolz that the article says it is 'unprecedented'. Guess someone forgot to pay attention in history class.
That's a laugh. Everything BUT submarines right now are obsolete, yet their plan for stopping 'obsolescence' of subs is to turn them into more vulnerable aircraft carriers. HAHAHAHAHAHA
There's now a rush of hiring 'supervisors', since you don't have to give them overtime pay - unfortunately the only thing they are supervising is their overweighted workload. Shades of "The Vampire Economy."
Looks like the war is back on, as predicted. Also predictably, the NY Slimes says the DPR broke the ceasefire, even though debaltsevo is behind the line of ceasefire demarcation (thus making surrender the only option for ukies in debaltsevo that would comply with ceasefire terms). At this point, WWIII is a fait accompli.
