Oh, Nooo ...

 LOL. Trump is a specialist in stolen valor and credit. But it seems to not help))

Thailand has suspended a peace deal with Cambodia reached just over two weeks ago that US President Donald Trump claimed to have helped broker. Bangkok announced the decision on Monday after four Thai soldiers patrolling the border with Cambodia were injured by a landmine, which Thai authorities allege was recently laid. One soldier reportedly lost a foot in the incident. The neighboring Southeast Asian countries inked a peace deal late last month in Malaysia. following a five-day-long military flare-up in a long-simmering colonial-era border dispute. Trump was present for the signing and took credit for the initiative. During a press conference on Monday, Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul announced that he was suspending the deal and the next steps of its implementation. “What happened demonstrates hostility towards Thailand and a continued security threat... What we have been pursuing must now be put on hold until clarity is restored,” he said.

Meanwhile. This is KAMAZ truck in military configuration. 

This is the video we spoke about with Daniel Davis of ONE of funeral (bodies recovery) teams of Russian Army who are involved in collecting bodies of VSU in Krasnoarmeisk (aka Pokrovsk).

Just this team alone--as the serviceman states--up to five KAMAZ loads a day (for many days now) of bodies are collected and, as he states, the more we move forward the more bodies of VSU KIAs they have to collect. 

It Seems Completely Off-Topic ...

 ... but it is relevant to overall trajectory of this blog and, in general, my and my family's American journey, with the United States being our home for a very long time now and us being deeply saddened by the decline of the country. Yet, I had a conversation in December last year with my very close friends (and naval academy's classmate) who were visiting and we discussed, however briefly, their purchase of Thai condo--they had two options, Turkey and Thailand, and they bought condo in Thailand. I responded to them on their desire to eventually retire there that they will not find real peace and enjoyment as permanent residents, because it is a completely alien culture. Here is the funny twist, American culture in a larger sense is totally comprehensible by any Russian who gets around the US and who knows ins and outs of it. 

That is why we told them that we are fully integrated, there are some things we don't like about America, there are many which we love deeply. And here is this very good video which talks about specifically Thailand and retirement there and which makes not only outstanding economic argument but a profound cultural one without offending rich Thai culture in any way. 

It also corresponds extremely well with many westerners, including Americans, who do migrate to Russia and then find a huge common ground with Russian culture--in the end, culture is a behavioral matrix, based on values. I strongly suggest you watch this video which provides, in my mind, outstanding commentary but also underscores, by implication, a treason combined West committed against itself. 82% do not "survive" Thailand--I am not surprised. Watch the whole of a video.
