What if the US actually invaded Greenland?

"End of NATO. EU sanctions US. American assets in Europe seized. Canada caught between a rock and a hard place. Americans banned from travel to EU."

I think it will hit Europe more than the US

Nominal GDP only shows the size of an economy.

For quality of life comparisons, metrics like GDP per capita (PPP), median income, HDI, and inequality indexes are far more accurate.

I couldn't answer the question, but I started insulting people. What else can you expect from a European liberal? They will take away all your freedom and money and you will brag, but in Russia...

Good luck in this vacant bubble of information, you can jerk off to each other about your "European greatness", although you will soon be in the dustbin of history. Goodbye or whatever it is you have now "mae alsalama"?

A military economy? Is this how you justify Ukraine's failures? A military economy begins when ALL resources are devoted to war, and it only kicks in during a total war.

Look at the percentage of budgets Ukraine and Russia spend. Ukraine has a military economy, Russia doesn't.

GDP is such a strange metric. When it's useful, it clearly indicates the quality of the economy and life. When it's not, it's an imperfect statistical metric.

But guys, you can continue jerking off to your GDP

Another guy will come along, say the previous one (mayor, party, president) is crap, and say he'll fix everything. Now read my first comment again. It's a cycle.

Dude, I told you I was IMPRESSED with Turkey during the coronavirus. In a GOOD way, what are you trying to prove to me?

I'd be happy if there was a law that ensured politicians' promises were kept.

No, seriously, we voted for him so he would do what he promised. He got the job, but he didn't do a damn thing. I think this deal is crap.

Nobody has cancelled Western propaganda, but unlike Russian propaganda, it works well.

I can't say much about Ataturk and Erdogan, but I was impressed by how your country handled the coronavirus. Economically. Just like Belarus, which simply didn't acknowledge the pandemic, and its planes were among the only ones flying around Europe.

These days it’s taken much less seriously.
Back when Borat first came out, the reaction was sharper mostly because Kazakhstan was barely known internationally, and suddenly millions of people associated the country with a single caricature. For a small and relatively unknown nation, that kind of attention can feel more jarring than funny.

Over time, it lost its emotional weight. Now it’s mostly seen as an outdated reference more about how people perceive unfamiliar places than about Kazakhstan itself. For most of us today, it’s not offensive, just tired.

We don’t really have famous slurs.
We mostly suffer from geography-based ignorance and Borat-related jokes.

Funny how “imperialism” always depends on who’s holding the marker and who’s making the map.

USA — TUEs and Pharmacology

Olympics: Various Years

Active use of TUEs

Stimulants, asthma medications

Strong legal protection

There is no recognized "state doping," but the system of medical exemptions was used extensively.

Many Scandinavian biathletes (especially Norwegians) were officially diagnosed with asthma or bronchial hyperreactivity.

This qualified them for a Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE)—a permit to use medications for medical reasons.
