MODERATORS
now that Putin is getting his own personal bitch boy in office, maybe they can arrange something.
Part II is coming soon.
Old Mother Russia loses Eastern Siberia to it's nursing neighbor China.
I'm not sure why Russia would care about Alaska
Are you joking?
It is almost on the other side of the world
And so is Kamchatka
It's sad that I don't know if you're joking
But Russia also has enormous fossil fuel reserves. They just sold off a colony that was more expensive to guard than it was lucrative to exploit.
Questionable.
There's about 60km between modern day Russia and Alaska, and plenty of troops are already stationed (and were at the time) on its eastern border. Alaska would provide a lot of resources, and it could absolutely be guarded.
But, at the time, Alaska was seen as nothing but barren piece of cold land, not really useful for anything.
rumors have it have trump is planning to ~~sell~~ gift Alaska to russia. And he'll split up a red state to make up for the lost senate seats.
🤣
