Summary
South Korea scrambled fighter jets as five Chinese and six Russian warplanes entered its air defense identification zone (KADIZ) on Friday, though they did not breach national airspace.
The incursion, part of joint Chinese-Russian military drills, occurred near the contested Dokdo islands and lasted over four hours.
South Korea condemned the unannounced flights, calling for measures to prevent escalation.
Similar incidents have increased since 2019, reflecting deepening China-Russia defense ties amid tensions with the U.S., South Korea, and Japan.
This follows other global airspace incidents involving Russian and Chinese forces.
China’s MO is to antagonize. They keep pushing knowing that sooner or later some individual they’re antagonizing is going to fuck up and cross the line, and they’ll be able to go all in on a “response” while blaming the other side for starting it.
It’s insane to me that entire fucking countries governments act no different than literal children.
This is stereotypical school yard bully tactics. It’s so fucking stupid. People point to specific sad stories as reasons they lost faith in humanity… I point to every country on the planet acting like children any time they have a slight disagreement, or decide they want something someone else has.
K was right. A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals.
Sometimes I feel like we should go back for the guillotines and keep going until we get sane leaders that actually want what’s best for the citizens.
I mean what is the line there, I would say soon as they hit the “national” line instead of the identification line Id blow them out of the sky and broadcast the location of their downed jets proving their infraction. China doesn’t want war, it’ll crush their economy with everyone else’s. Choosing to go to war would likely only end in their people overthrowing their government whether they could hide the fact they instigated it or not. A billion starving people wouldn’t be easy to keep restrained.
War is another major economy driver, so no - it would not “crush” their economy. If you think in the current Internet age the Chinese government can be organized against so easily that it’ll be overthrown by their own people, then you know so little about China that further discussion on this topic with you is a complete waste of time.
So you think war has made Russias economy better? That’s the most modern example, show me.
Edit; the truth is Temporary government throwing money at things prospers, long term, kills the economy. Every economic degree will agree.
