**Note:** This design should be retroactive to 2025 if possible
\---
**Introduction:** Since China has decided to go with conventionally powered carriers for the rest of the 2020s (2), the introduction of its first nuclear-powered aircraft carriers will be delayed until the mid-2030s at least. The delay will give the PLAN some additional time to incorporate advanced features into the Type 004.
**Design Notes:**
**Propulsion:** Magnetohydrodynamic drives with solid-state cooled superconductors should be available by the time the Type 004 is available for commission (1). MHD thrusters have no moving parts and are thus extremely quiet.
Both the reactors and steam turbines will have thermovoltaic power recovery units, significantly increasing the efficiency of the ship’s powerplant.
**Stealth:** Due to its advanced propulsion systems, the Type 004 will be an unusually quiet ship for its size. To take advantage of its acoustic characteristics, each deck will be rafted in the same manner as a submarine, and the areas of the ship below the water line will be coated in active anechoic tiling (1).
Although these measures may not seem necessary, even halving the ship’s radar and acoustic signatures will substantially reduce the range at which enemy forces can detect the ship.
**Sensors:** While the Type 004 will have a fairly standard radar suite for a ship of its size and role, the low-noise propulsion system will permit the installation of an active and passive sonar suite. This will substantially improve the ship’s defenses against enemy submarines.
**Air Wing:** The Type 004 will embark a mix of 5th and 6th-generation fighters, utility planes, helicopters, and drones. There will be no provisions to carry J-15s, which will remain in service aboard the 003 class carriers.
Production: There will be significant expansion in both drydock space and nuclear reactor production capacity over the next 15 years, so that 2 carriers can be commissioned per year by 2040.
**Specifications (Type 004 CVN):**
**Length:** 337m
**Beam:** 41m (waterline)
**Draft:** 11m
**Displacement:** 110,000 tons
**Complement:** \~4,200
**Propulsion:** 2x PWR nuclear reactors, HEU fuel (800 MWth), 4x steam turbines with thermovoltaic recovery, with integrated electric propulsion, 4x magnetohydrodynamic thrusters with solid-state cooling.
**Electricity Available:** 650 MWe (split between propulsion and shipboard usage)**Maximum Speed:** 35+ knots
**Elevators:** 3x elevators (1 port, 2 starboard)
**Catapults:** 4x EMALS catapults
Production: There will be significant expansion in both drydock space and nuclear reactor production capacity over the next 15 years so that 2 carriers can be commissioned per year by 2040.
**Armament:**
\-Mounts for CIWS and point defense missiles.
\-Standard decoy system (similar to other PLAN ships)
\-Provisions for lasers later on.
**Sensors:**
\-Standard phased array radar suite (similar to larger PLAN surface combatants)
\-Standard phased array sonar suite (see notes)
**Price:** $13.5 billion
**Production:** 1 per year from 2035-2040, 2 per year from 2040-2050, 25 in total
**Future Plans:** Depending on research progress, the last 5 ships in this class (post-2045) may have fusion reactors instead of fission reactors.

(1): Refer to the Type 042 SSK
(2): The ship under construction in the link below looks identical to the Fujian, it’s probably conventionally powered.[https://www.drrobertfrew.com/china-fourth-aircraft-carrier/](https://www.drrobertfrew.com/china-fourth-aircraft-carrier/) | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-20 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4Y3ZuQi1jbHdyX2U0X2Z3WldLT0pjR0dmSllRMDNLTFFPWG5UNEJEVjV0b0o2RzVSWWlfM2JMLUdLVGJMblEtX213VVdYdENiWmxxTGZjbVhmTmVPVGc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVNExVSzR2NVRINnQwMWNmdVFtUWYzeWc5NVExX2FpTXYxYVp3cmJ6MmY3SlZUSVpWWGhmTjBmQ1VKZVRzT1ZOVExrQ21EVFhkbEtxV0NsS191bzZWYlVZQ05TQVJkQTItaXYtRFVnUFVhanJxem1hN01OdzNjc0JremZDNVlsZkt0VXJKZW0yWi1JSWNld3I5UEhJeU5nNVJ4UTRNNnpUUjhKa29sem1SQ0pFPQ== |
Green Valley Arms has procured 2 assembly line grade Factories for the production of firearms. President John Mahama said that he was proud to see what the policy of our nation is bringing.
"The future of Ghana is destined to be grand. Until then we must ensure we have one."
Mahama said at a press rally.
As a heavy advocate for the continuation of the program, Mahama is not focused on the country itself. Hospitals and schools are starving for funding while the military eats more every day.
GVAs research and development team has been studying the development of armored vehicles and higher standards for primary weaponry.
The armed forces has reviewed the plans for the AV53 Assault Carbine and decided that it should be good to go once the production gets started.
On behalf of Ghana nightly news, we have seen some concerning halts in the development of GVA. They were under an oppressive budget for over a year, resulting in a halted term
We can only hope that the government can solve the issue.
The republican party is truly showing off their dominance in the country yet failing to secure the basic needs of it.
That's all for tonight folks.

Claiming as an Indian 2ic. Main priorities and tasks will be concentrated on questions of the economy and social policies: starting from the education and labour markets to the sustainable development. Main task is creating more complex Indian economy, by making labour-force more competitive with reformed institutions – like coordination in bargaining and some ALMPs like funding a training with some specific frameworks, undertaking some measures in industrial policy and also making some changes in state-owned sector in the way it managed (because current situation is a bit poor), all of these measures should lead to a common goal - shaping economic complexity of India. Hope it's enough to be approved. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-20 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4YldPYWRrUlVvcUxTQVM5V0xIZ281ZnZKZTJUMDZKNGpubnpGbWhsaVVDSHk5ckN5WXYwb25ibGVzcUxoLUw2Q1BXeHZlZERlNjdzNkhraVlpYTg0enc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVVnB4UXducVRnZ0J0WWZkempWYXZHbk03YjdhRDhWSUVuZDRxamh6NERkQzFiOFZEM2J0V3FHakJCMlA2dE02NjE0NTlQeDM1WG9NNzZWVWJ3b1JqT09FRHZFZGptaTRpcFFVcGNRSENaQjIyOFBsc1ZoZlBnSzRJTXUxUmVXT043d0pFcGs2WFI5VERGLVlQMGJ1MWE5NWg0QnZHakNIcHJVbUp2bTY1aWpZPQ== |

The Day After Election Night
===
# Stunning Blue Surge
## Senate Split
The Senate witnessed significant competition on election night. Notable Democratic victories included three Republican incumbent upsets. In Texas, Democrat Cristina Tzintzún Ramirez emerged victorious over Senator Cornyn, the Lone Star State marches further left. Alaska witnessed a similar upset as Dan Sullivan lost to challenger Edgar Blatchford marking a shift towards climate change attitudes, and most surprisingly Iowa Senator Joni Ernst was unseated by Theresa Greenfield.
The one redeeming event of the night for the Republicans was a comeback victory by Maine senator Susan Collins. However, with the three upsets the Senate has once again become split 50/50 with Vice President Ro Khanna giving the Democrats control once again. This comes at a precarious price however with every vote being needed to pass bills.
## House Flips
Continuing the Democratic victory in the Senate was a surprise takeover of the House. The night saw key races across the nation slipping into Democrat hands. Final results are 225 Democratic seats to 210 Republican seats. Analyzing exit polling has led to a unified perspective on what led to this. Strategic campaigning with a focus on blue collar workers, focusing on redistricting efforts in Texas, Georgia, and other historically disadvantaged districts, and younger more socially-aware candidates has led to a nationwide appetite for change.
## Implications
With Madame Harris at the helm and Vice President Ro Khanna breaking tie votes in the Senate, Democrats have an opportunity to advance their policy priorities. The slim majorites in both chambers will require skillful negotiation and in the Senate bipartisan cooperation. Undoubtedly, this midterm has fundamentally changed the remaining 2 years of President Harris’s first term. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-21 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4Tm1nbWVMOUhaV2hQdXhfOHljV2hMLTJ3RDZtcWRZdW0xYlpuVkZCbl9WZGhQd2UzOWFHR2h3N3NQMjIzNmM0TEdQM05VY2JFYUVzVnlRZjluM2pIa1E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVOVAxYkRpUGFFcmt0b1dUV2liSEhmdzV6NGI3YVcza2tWR0R0bkNqVVc4cHFraXdzVkVWWUxHZENtU0hwTWc2SGNMejRDZUJ0UHRSS2lmLUJHOXdudEtqXzFCcWN2RDB6QlJoTUNVS05QYV9kREVodWwtMXphUDlFbHZRQ0JxWHhEUHYxeU83V0tFVDVUX1lHS1BOOVNDYndTVkRGRDVJc3Q3WWRkdUFSRTY5d1JkR1o4Z3dSTENqT21Eam5oWll2 |

[NBC polling](https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24171452-230343-nbc-november-2023-poll_111923-release-v2) indicates overall support for Israel and negative perceptions of Palestine.
Keep in mind a also that disapproving of handling the war can mean disapproval in either direction. Some pro-Israel conservatives like Ben Shapiro feel that Biden either isn’t doing enough or has done or said some things that may undermine his effort. | r/foreignpolicyanalysis | comment | r/foreignpolicyanalysis | 2023-11-21 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4YmQwaGlUUXl4X2VUcmR2NVBkZXhoaDhSTmNjczBDUS0yRDh2R3BIZ0NibmltX0NZUEVXdUJMRDVFSEx4RzI5aUREdDllRmdYWXZITUp6dERBdlBfelE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVRE1Eamk3ei1FRUdtT0M3MUhiNWk3bFVpd2pZRGJwT1dkamZLdVRsWXdEMC0waTVSMDRGa1E3S0lsWEVKY3lyS2lvWjVkaDFsOTRTLVpENE03RnZWYlhqczliWHctQkZ0NEFDaEJObmJUcGRJM0RuSXpMVi1YRDVnNlRJbG1nZmU2X0VWdkNXM1lXdEFHdmhKdTk1Zlg4RF9QcmZNOXB6VGNpSi10WG02ZDFHcHJoTk0zRzJYYmFEN0c4UGo2LXpfOWtLbVFJX054eXRLSVFvdldYMzBEa09mNkVpcWhiUWZpdFpISkI0OUZ0TT0= |

*January 2027*
After a winter of brownouts due to fluctuations in electricity generation over the last 10 weeks, the Labour government have brought forward plans to create Great British Energy (GBE). Championed by the Prime Minister as 'a new home-grown, publicly-owned champion in clean energy generation to build jobs and supply chains', GBE's state aim is to bolster electricity generation, deliver lower bills and jobs for Britain.
The Chancellor is set to outline a number of large scale investments in renewable energy projects as part of the Spring Budget that will come under GBE's control, while it will also buy energy on the markets for sale to consumers. Over time, the government assert that it will cut an average of £1,400 off the average annual household bill and save £53bn off energy bills for businesses within 6 years if they were all to sign up. With no shareholders or bonuses to pay, the government assert that all profits made would be used to provide lower prices.
GBE will deal solely in carbon-free electricity, and will not be available to properties that use gas for heating or cooking. The Secretary of State of Climate Change and Net Zero, Ed Miliband, has been pushing Cabinet colleagues to implement a ban on gas boiler sales from 2028, and planning regulations for new build properties are set to require air source heat pumps and electric cookers and hobs. This is despite a glaring absence in qualified fitters and repairers for heat pumps
This will be a stark contrast to the current situation. The energy price cap for October 2026 to February 2027 reached £2,350, marginally lower than the peak of £2,500 in the first winter of the Russo-Ukrainian war. A means-tested government contribution of £200 to those in receipt of certain benefits was provided, but this is level of support is considerably lower than that provided in 2022, the government saying that public finances and the latest 'winter crisis' in the NHS prevented a higher level and wider distribution of support.
High bills and electrical outages have been blamed for a surge in winter mortality, with 11,500 recorded excess deaths to date. These were caused by a combination of people in poorly insulated homes freezing to death, cancellations of hospital treatment resulting from power outages and an unwillingness to switch on generators due to emissions targets, and winter viruses such as cold, flu and Covid.

######*30th January 2027;*
Icy chills, as the height of winter passed through Paris, were seldom the thought of many, for this year was to be an election year. 2027 was the culmination of five long years of Macron rule. In that time, the country had gone from buoyant growth back to stifled stagnation, with inflation an ever-present foe. What Macron had been referred to back in 2017 - a ‘saviour’ - was now a joke, a relic of the distant past where hope resided. That was a past where the Socialists and Republicans held major relevancy. Nowadays, the wings lay far further to the left and right, and as the day opened up, the crowds entered the capital, and stormed every nook and cranny. The ‘Prince’, the new name for the President Macron that had become, suited him well. Paris now simply wished for revolution.
Thus, it was the time for the amateurs to rise to their jobs, and it was a journalist - one born in 2000 - that catalogued the entire day’s affairs for the nation. The name was Adriana Desscau, a woman who knew what she was doing. She had filmed several such oddities of events before, including one of the most famous - Rue Jean Bullant, all the way back some three years ago. Desscau never liked the spotlight too much, preferring to write to each newspaper for a small line for an interview, rather than show her own face or talk with her own voice. It was a way of keeping her anonymous, so that she could continue her works without recognition in the moment, plus, it kept her humble. Adriana was not a professional - indeed, she worked in a Carrefour in Massy for her rent and food - and did not hold professional equipment either, the equipment of choice being the versatile smartphone and an SD card. It would go everywhere, and see the world as Adriana saw fit. Thus, the pair set off around Paris.
First to arrive on her camera was the right-wingers, those of the Le Pen preference. They had assembled in a protest line all the way from the Gare du North and Gare de l’Est down to the Monument to the Republic, filling the Boulevard de Magenta as they assembled. By 11, they had begun marching and shouting their own slogans right at the city. “For the return of law and order, here now and forever” was one shout from amongst the crowd, joined by another of “Let the true French decide the fate of the French”, the pair of shouts deriving from an earlier incident in Marseille just over a month ago. 20 had died, 63 were injured seriously, and the media had all gone onto blame whichever group they wished did it, whether it be the Roma or Palestinians or Syrians or Libyans, no matter the official police line that it was likely the CGC of Corsican nationalists. “That is a force!” was what Adriana mouthed when she climbed on a car, to get a better view. The owners inside, mildly miffed at the requisition of their car for filming purposes, could do nothing. The streets were very much packed, quite frankly.
Desscau’s second area to visit was further westwards, towards the Avenue d’Iena, leading southwards from the Arc du Triomphe, and that was for the French Insurmountable, the faction of Melenchon. Here, the chants were more vocal, and more local too, for the city of Paris was one of the hotspots for the left-wingers of France - saying left-wing would be putting it too broadly, for these desired revolution to end their struggles. “One more chance comes only with one more Republic” were the words of choice for the mass, who had already started streaming and filing out into the smaller streets surrounding the main body, calling for more and more to join. Here was the beginning of the situation Paris-wide, for the many in the riotous group took to vandalism, staining the road was graffiti of their many regional symbols, for the new Sixth Republic would promote greater regional autonomy. There was also the chants of “You know he knows the way”, and Melenchon, right within the crowd, was pointed to by every raised finger on the avenue. Desscau could only interview a few, before the atmosphere turned, and her accent - one matching her origin of Flanders - started sounding hostile to the few now surrounding her. It was time to move on.
By the time that Adriana Desscau reached the third staging area for the protests - the Quai d’Orsay - what had been a victorious and determinant mood within Paris had been augmented by a feeling of brazenity. The Gendarmerie had not yet arrived, had not yet used their underhanded tactics, and by the time that Desscau left the Insurmountables at 13:15, the crowds were turning against the peace. Never was this more evident by the Seine, where it was now startlingly clear with the new ‘Regardons Pas En Arrière’, or R-PEA, fronted by Darmanin and Bardella. This was a group with clearly not the size of the other two groups, which had themselves moved towards the Seine. Each was held on the north bank, the opposite bank to the R-PEA, and yet, the R-PEA were already just too agitated. When the police did arrive at 13:55, the makings of chaos had been manifesting themselves towards a sort of siege mentality. The Gendarmerie coming in from the south only cemented that idea.
Immediately, Desscau felt her life to be in grave danger, and so moved back rapidly, trying to flee from what she saw developing. Protesters on the outside started attacking the police guarding the barriers, trying to get the R-PEAers to disperse. It was a learned tactic that had worked so far in 2025 and 2026 - a clear effect of a more sensible Minister of the Interior - but that was against more disorganised general-protest groups. Here was R-PEA, a group far more political, and far more audacious. People surged backwards, into others, into others, into others, into others, cascading over and over backwards towards the river line. The wharf ran straight and true along the shore, and was a straight drop. Straight into that drop started falling people, in ones and twos, as the crowd pulled back. Desscau could only film and watch, the courageous already helping the less-abled, and the way was at least mostly saved for R-PEA, as well as the Gendarmerie. Nobody had died, thankfully. Only a few “We see what you see” and “I feel that dagger too” proclamations were made through the crowd, before they naturally dispersed. The Seine was still not clean enough for most to risk a dip.
***
The day had closed in on Adriana Desscau, and her position usually towards the sides of each group had almost been detrimental. Still, life had gone on, and the images shown were nothing short of fantastic. Individuals were recognisable through the mists of breaths and the mass of clothes that blocked views and identities. The amateur only had a few questions left to ask the protesters, one for each group.
“Why are you here?”
“Le Pen’s recommendation, to practice claiming the streets for our coming victory!”
“To be with Melenchon, who shall lead us into a golden age by whatever means possible!”
“To show that the world is against us, and that we rise stronger and greater, only under the strong men betrayed by the donkeys of the weak!”
Desscau did not notice a single Ensemble protester there though.
She had her guesses. They seemed pretty correct.
Any proportion of zero is still worth zero.
And that was some goodnight to the chaos of Paris.
And that was the end to the Filming, of the Animals.

Having secured a licensing agreement with Boeing Australia to domestically manufacture the MQ-28 Ghost Bat, Boeing UK will begin development of the system for RAF use, where (for want of finding another weather system related name) it shall be known as the Cyclone RG.1. Over the years since round start it is assumed that the Ghost Bat has demonstrated basic flight capabilities, teaming flight and formation flying with manned aircraft, formation flight with other unmanned aerial systems, and emergency protocols for landings and returning to base / a nearby friendly location. Phase 2 trials will push the Cyclone further, and include:
* Theoretical development of AI (rather than pattern recognition / machine learning) situational awareness and Basic Fighter Manoeuvring (BFM) with input from experienced RAF combat pilots and flight instructors, with thousands of hours of scenarios and simulations to be run by 2030.
* Testing the network meshing of the system to send and receive real-time encrypted information to other platforms autonomously ensuring the flight AI has full situational awareness at all times while operating with no emissions of its own.
* Airframe alterations to insert a modular, removable 3.2m x 0.8m weapons bay capable of carrying a 500kg payload or the fuel that would otherwise be in this section of the fuselage.
* Squadron level operational formation flight, with several Cyclone aircraft operating cooperatively with Typhoon / F-35 / P-8 aircraft in both unmanned controlled and autonomous flight operations.
* Trials of the developed AI situational awareness and BFM in 'hostile' airspace over the Electronic Warfare Tactics facility at RAF Spadeadam to test and refine the AI's capability of deploying countermeasures, engaging defensive ECM, and conducting evasive manoeuvres.
* Autonomous route management based on information provided by other platforms, proactively evading air defences, surveillance radars and hostile aircraft to avoid detection and make use of terrain masking where applicable.
* Development of a marinised version of the Cyclone and further trials at ParcAberforth.
* From 2030, the carrying out of non-autonomous weapons trials against ground targets on land and at sea and aerial engagements with target drones, both BVR and WVR.
* From 2032, dogfighting between unmanned, controlled Cyclone and autonomously operating Cyclone , testing the BFM of the autonomous system against human controlled aircraft in real engagements under test conditions.
* From 2034, dogfighting between manned aircraft and the autonomous system in real engagements under test conditions.
By 2032, the Cyclone will be considered to have met IOC for RAF service (able to operate in uncontested airspace and deliver ordnance in an unmanned, controlled mode / carry out ISR missions autonomously) , with FOC anticipated by 2036.

Although Georgia's coalition government has prioritized western integration, social and economic policy aimed at reducing inequality remain politically important. Reforming public administration to ensure merit-based appointments and eliminate patronage can help reduce the influence of economic interests in government decision-making.
The coalition government has passed EU-style legislation protecting minority languages in Georgia. Ensuring the legal protection of minority rights, including linguistic and cultural rights, and taking measures to prevent discrimination against minority groups. Funding has been earmarked for the purchase of primary education resources in Abkhaz, Armenian, and Azeri, and the provision of legal services in minority languages.
The cost of living crisis and urban renewal were important issues in the most recent parliamentary elections. Parliament has enacted new laws to streamline property registration processes, ensure land and property rights are well-defined and protected, and simplify land and property transactions to encourage real estate development. The coalition government has prioritized investment in real estate, offering a program for tax relief in newly constructed housing units.
A lack of UNM support for labor has long been a campaign issue championed by Georgian Dream. Labor law has been reformed with legislation that protects the rights of workers and ensures fair labor practices. The public health insurance program previously created by Georgian Dream has been made accessible to all Georgians, rather than public-sector workers exclusively. With renewed funding for housing and healthcare, the coalition government has attempted to alleviate the rising costs paid by Georgia’s public. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-23 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4ZlBmOTFtblpmWEpzVXBsQWVrNmtLcFZpbk5hTy1mUS1JSTBYemtyVDhyaUlpcGlxMzdJVjFXTm1JMERaMEEyXy1wbXA2ZXZGaXB3V3BhSjljRFNPVVE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVMlVBWkU3aTRjaXd1YWZtVFZFelh1TEZQYXA1VXJxaGkwSWxNcWZqMGdwWExjeVQ3c1duTzZDWlg4U0Y2emFrQXROZXRiakt1V1R0b09fbS1pbkdWdjRidU1xSnpvMzNTS1huR04wSG80Yy14X05rX0JRZ05ldThLcGh1WXdUM1hSNzJ5OTVUUDJCdkNNNVR6a3ZldU1UNURjMDFSNFczdXV5c0EtdEtsbnk3YmNRRndXWjlJYzB6aUI1VUF0YW1Wc2hTeEFxYWNzcEFrY2QzMDA1eEsxUT09 |

Vision 2035 continues to take shape. Next up is the Indian Air Force. At this stage, the Indian Air Force has a very diverse fleet of aircraft from different eras. While maintaining such old aircraft as the MiG-21 in service, the basis of the fighter fleet is made up of fairly modern Su-30MKI aircraft. In addition, India operates French fighters such as the Mirage and Rafale. In recent years, indigenously developed Tejas Mk1 fighters have come into service.
According to the previous needs assessment, India needs 42 squadrons. These data are not fully relevant today, when India's neighbors have significantly expanded their aircraft fleets and qualitatively improved their equipment. The updated target for the number of air wings is 50 fighter squadrons with a total strength of about 1,000 fighters. Although this goal is not impossible, its achievement is still beyond the planning horizon.
In fact, India has about 30 squadrons in service, at least 1/3 of which consists of obsolete vehicles that require decommissioning in the near future. The task is complicated not by the complexity of the national aviation industry. Tejas Mk1 is an intermediate vehicle, which the command is not betting on, and Tejas Mk2 is still being tested. Conducting international aviation tenders is time-consuming and cannot compensate for the current write-offs of obsolete aircraft. However, the Navy's abandonment of Tejas creates a vacuum in Navy procurement, which means international tenders are still necessary.
In order to equip the Indian Air Force and Navy with a sufficient number of combat vehicles in the future, 3 projects were opened at different times to create a new generation fighter, including a joint project with the Russian Federation to create an Indian modification of the Su-57. The joint project was cancelled, which again creates a vacuum in the heavy aviation segment, since the other two promising aircraft AMCA and TEDBF are medium weight and have more payload restrictions. Moreover, if AMCA aims to create a 5th generation fighter, including in a carrier-based version, then TEDBF is developing a 4th generation carrier-based fighter. Occupying a single niche, they nevertheless do not meet the updated customer requirements put forward in the Vision 2035 program. Taking into account the current situation, tasks, resources and prospects, the command approves the following actions for the implementation of the Air Force 2035 program
1) Launch large-scale production of Tejas Mk2 immediately after testing is completed in 2028. In 2028, HAL should already deliver 54 Tejas Mk2 to the Air Force. In 2029, the production line should expand to 90 fighters per year, and in 2030 to 120 fighters per year. This does not mean that the Air Force will buy the entire volume. The additional volume is intended for emergency and export orders, and also insures the company in case of an emergency
The Air Force plans to purchase:
2028 – 54 aircraft
2029 – 90 aircraft
2030 – 96 aircraft
2031 - 96 aircraft
2032 - 96 aircraft
2033 - 96 aircraft
2034 - 96 aircraft
2035 – 96 aircraft
In total, delivery of 720 Tejas Mk2 is planned until 2035. Allocate $2 billion to HAL to open production lines
2) Close the AMCA and TEDBF projects. Developments on these projects should form the basis of a new project of a single multi-role fighter for the Air Force and Navy - HMAS (Heavy multi-role air system) (Development will be a separate post). The new heavy fighter will have enhanced air superiority capabilities, an increased payload, a network-centric battlefield control system and the ability to control unmanned wingmen. HMAS is scheduled to enter service by 2035. The fighter will replace the Su-30 MKI, which was outdated by that time, and will become the basis for air supremacy of the Indian Air Force.
3) Continued development of related technologies such as aircraft engines, radars, and outboard weapons of various classes. In particular, the task is to develop an increased thrust engine in the dimensions of the GE-414 with the aim of using it in HMAS and the future remotorization of the Tejas Mk2 on it. Research on the development of Uttam radars will continue. The promising radar will be made using GaN and will have outstanding performance. The development of Astra family rockets will continue. The Astra Mk3 model will get the move. Air-to-surface ammunition will be developed, the air-launched Nirbhay missile, promising Indian anti-ship missiles, and promising hypersonic weapons will be put into service. At the same time, the Brahmos family of missiles does not meet the new concept. The military command no longer finds ramjet-powered cruise missiles to be a successful technical solution. Purchases of new Brahmos missiles will be suspended, and the Brahmos 2 project is frozen. Prospects for changing the nature of the project and India's continued participation in it will be discussed later.
4) By 2035, the Air Force plans to write off its entire outdated fighter aircraft fleet. The write-off plan is as follows:
2028 – all MiG-21
2030 – all Jaguar
2032 – all MiG-29
2034 - all Mirage 2000
All decommissioned aircraft can be donated to flight schools upon request.
In total, by 2035, 10 squadrons of Su-30 MKI, 6 squadrons of Tejas Mk1 and 2 squadrons of Rafal will remain in service with the Air Force, and 30 squadrons of Tejas Mk2 will also be supplied. In total, by 2035, the Air Force will have 48 fighter aircraft squadrons with a total number of more than 1,000 aircraft, which almost meets the needs of the command. After 2035, the Su-30 MKI will be replaced by HMAS and the usefulness of Tejas Mk1 and Rafale in the Air Force will also be reviewed. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-23 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4M1F4OWlJVUpFQmVyYkZmTF8tcmZZYXdIeUViOXh6R0ZjYTZEckVWT1dvWkR3cmItTFFhWEdQWjJrU3FkX0l1cGd1V2hwRFoycHBJMnhlZ2ppZzhwN2c9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVUXRlM0U3Z0dCdHNqc2VSYkhMXzd1U3lzR3BOSjhkTXFJdDB6dTg0TEk2ZTM0RVhuQ3puOF9lc05paHlCd3ZNYVE2X25KeE1kQ3RPWFBESzZLemxaUU5hRnJ4ZVdidmRqUEVOMmdnNEVMN19oZDlUbk1VM01kcjZmSk4yTWxBNi1wdGk5SkdjZTJsZjc0S2pjZ1hmNlpacGVLWm10TlBTMFduVmNKMDNjeU1nPQ== |
***President Putin’s speech to the Russian people recorded on the Red Square, which at the time was guarded by thousands of police and military personnel***
​
>Greetings, citizens of the Russian Federation. As you definitely know already, the Russian military has taken massive losses on the battlefield in the Ukraine recently. Thousands have died on our side, but I must remind you the nazi offensive was more than twice as deadly for them than for us. The size of their false-state will not allow them to keep fighting for longer as they are already running out of men. The only thing keeping them going currently is money from America and the EU, this money is not infinite and cannot support them forever. Western citizens despise Ukraine more every day.
>
>Thus, I have taken the decision to keep fighting. The current military leadership, Shoigu and Gerasimov as well as an additional two dozen or so high-ranking generals, have been removed from their posts and are currently residing in prison for their ineptitude in fighting the war. To win this war, I have decided to take control of the command of the Russian Armed Forces. I will make sure the military gets what it needs in order to turn the tides on the battlefield and restore our international border.
>
>Now, many of you might be wondering what led to this catastrophic defeat of our forces, and so was I. I found out the military leadership was hiding the true status on the frontlines from me and the Russian people for years, leading me to think the war was going according to plan. I have removed these terrible actors from the military leadership and am implementing a new system of truth and transparency where, if Russian soldiers have issues with their leadership, they can report them and actions will be taken.
>
>To win this war, we need the entire power of the Russian Federation and people, not just small percentages as has been the case for the duration of this war. Thus I am declaring complete mobilization of the people and economy. The only focus for anyone in Russia should be winning and destroying NATO forces in the Ukraine so we can restore the historical lands our people are entitled to. For specific numbers, 2.2 million men from the reserve are going to be mobilized to build a new Russian Army. You will fill units depleted in the fighting and will build new units. You, men of Russia, will bring victory to your people, you will not betray us as the military leadership has.
>
>Right now is the turning point in the war, like in 1942. The Ukrainian offensive into Zaphorizia and Crimea were the equivalents of the initial Nazi German invasion of Russia in 1941. They saw some successes, but they quickly realized they cannot keep fighting the great Russian people and, in 1942 the Red Army turned the guns toward Berlin and started marching. The same is happening now - the men now going to the army will be the force to finally bring the West to their knees. Kiev will fall, and so will every last inch of rightful Russian territory comprising The Ukraine.
>
>Additionally, I have taken the decision of barring travel abroad for average Russian citizens - you are needed at home, not in the West where you arm our enemies. If you want to travel, Russia is the largest country in the world, travel in Russia.
>
>The economy now will start working solely for the purpose of arming the military. I have created departments in the government who will send directives to all companies across Russia on what is needed of them. We will win this war, and to do it we need all of you.
>
>The Special Military Operation has turned into an existential war for Russia - if we don't win in Ukraine against NATO, we'll have to continue the fight in Russia proper, which I'm sure none of you want. If the Donbas falls to the West, then will Belgorod, then Volgograd, then Moscow, then St. Petersburg and then the rest of Russia. We have to win here, now, and without any doubt in our victory.
>
>\[insert around 15 minutes of historical revisionism here\]
*Police will be deployed in every city across Russia before the speech to be ready to stop protests.*
Putin plans on taking a more personal role in the war from now on and has created the ‘Special Military Justice Division’ which is tasked with vetting units around the frontline, and having one-on-one interviews with both leaders and common soldiers, so bad leaders can be ousted from the military. The unit is also responsible for making sure misreporting information in order to receive promotions or military honors is stopped. This is going to be achieved by doing random spot checks on information presented to high-command to see if they are supported by actual facts.
​
***What follows is confidential:***
For personal protection, the president has overseen the creation of a 500 member special forces group which acts as a sort of coup-proofing. Most of these soldiers are veterans from the war and are receiving substantially higher pay than the average soldier. They are with Putin at all times and make sure no harm falls on him.
The “War Industry Committee” will oversee reorganization of Russian military industries and determine the best methods every Russian company can help the war effort. If a company won’t oblige with the WIC’s guidelines, the WIC has authority to nationalize the company and take production into the government’s hands.
The plan is to expand armored vehicle, ammunition, drone, and missile production to never before seen levels to feed the massive war effort. To expand production to as high as possible, armored vehicle and missile plants will refrain from producing the highest-tech equipment and instead produce less sophisticated equipment:
* Main production tank - T-72(B3M) instead of T-90(M);
* Main production IFV - BMP-2(M) instead of BMP-3(M);
* Main production land-attack missile - Kalibr;
* UAV production will focus on shorter-range tactical systems such as small quadrotors, Lancet and Orlan-10, while not forgetting the production of Shahed drones and other long-range kamikaze systems;
* Air defense production will remain focused on more advanced S-400 and S-500 systems;
* To supplement traditional artillery, the production of Krasnopol laser-guided shells is going to be expanded as well;
* Production of both large strategic EW systems and tactical drone-jammers is planned to be increased substantially;
* Production of artillery gun barrels will see increases.
​
**Mobilization**
The 2,213,000 troops to be mobilized will be spread out to rebuild units destroyed or damaged during the war, and to build new units. Virtually every piece of equipment in storage will be taken out and refurbished (important to say that the large majority of weapons aren’t going to be upgraded and are simply going to receive a cleanup). If enough equipment cannot be found for a unit, civilian vehicles will be issued instead. These men will see 2-month long training sessions by veterans from the war to prepare them for the conditions they’re going to see. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-23 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4MkFPWlotd1JDSVZUb0tDM2g3WkdqZGpKcFBicm05SFgtVTdrcThuaHQxRHRRX0VaMlBrTUpPTVpZZ1Z3VWNKRmtrUlgzaV9IOTFyajREbzA4Um9QRlE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVNV92WDJTWTh5cXFjQ2cyM3g2c25oeEZxVThyRVhmS2VzallHWFRBTXFzXzB2YWhFVDRWQ0JNN29xZVU2R2NSM3N3SXpxbVJpbFpGUW0xZ2JsUzRqTFFManAydk11T1cxNWRpU0VTaXpCTU9MOXlzOHFGN0tJSnZpU0NGeDZTc2NQLU5IV20wMkVCelg0eE0tcDVTNzNxUmp6cDVJcHBsOHc3UWg5R3kzV2R0NnEtd1E4WjZKZEx4SU90Znp1TTRF |
If this post is solely and exclusively happening in the mind of Putin as he’s having his Hitler in the bunker moment, then it’s fine. If it is actually intending to continue the war, then it is not.

**April 2027**
A recent agreement between Turkey and Ukraine has led to the resurrection of the [Antonov An-188](https://defence-blog.com/antonov-details-188-military-cargo-aircraft-family/) project, which is a proposed variant of the [Antonov An-70](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonov_An-70) transport aircraft.
Having been initially proposed at the 2015 Paris Air Show, the An-188 was envisioned as a version of the An-70 with jet engines instead of propfans, and a modernized, NATO-compatible glass cockpit. The aircraft would also have slightly enlarged wings, winglets, and aerial refuelling capabilities.
The An-188 is intended to fill the gap between the C-130 Hercules and the C-17 Globemaster, which makes it comparable to the Airbus A400M Atlas. The An-188 would be a suitable choice to replace Ukraine's aging and diminished fleet of Ilyushin Il-76s, and would serve as a more capable and more economic competitor to the A400M in the global market.
At the 2018 Eurasia Airshow, it was announced that Antonov would be partnering with Turkish Aerospace Industries to make the proposed aircraft a reality, but the project never came to fruition for unknown reasons. The Russian invasion in 2022 indefinitely delayed any prospects of reviving the project, but now that the Russian military has begun to collapse and has been driven from most of Ukraine, Turkey has approached Ukraine and proposed that it is time for the An-188 to takeoff from the drawing board.
The resurrected project will once again be a joint venture between Antonov and Turkish Aerospace Industries, with Antonov (and other Ukrainian companies) providing the airframe and engines, and TAI providing the modern NATO-compatible avionics and systems. As the project only consists of modifying the propulsion and avionics of an existing aircraft, it is expected that development will take much less time than designing an entirely new plane. The only major difficulty that the designers expect is figuring out the incorporation of an aerial refuelling system, which will utilize the probe-and-drogue method.
The planned timeline of the project is as follows:
* **2027:** Remaining repairs to the Antonov Serial Production Plant are completed
* **2028:** One of the existing An-70 prototypes is retrofitted with the new engines and avionics
* **2029:** The aircraft embarks on its maiden flight and undergoes further development and evaluation, including the installation of the aerial refuelling system
* **2030:** Conclusion of development and commencement of serial production
Initial serial production will take place exclusively in Ukraine, with the first 24 aircraft being built for the Turkish Air Force at a rate of 6 per year. During that time, Antonov and TAI will work on building a production facility in Turkey, which will be licensed to produce the aircraft for domestic service. Ukraine will likely produce examples for its own air force, but no definitive commitments have been made. Ukraine will however seek to export the aircraft abroad in order to help revitalize it's famous aviation industry.
**Specifications**
* **Crew:** One pilot, one co-pilot, one flight engineer
* **Passengers:** 300 troops, or 130 fully-equipped paratroopers, or 206 wounded troops across two decks (when deployed in a medevac configuration)
* **Length:** 41 metres
* **Height:** 16 metres
* **Wingspan:** 46 metres
* **Maximum Payload:** 50 tonnes
* **Maximum Takeoff Weight:** 140 tonnes
* **Powerplant:** 4x [Motor Sich D-436-148FM turbofan engines](https://motorsich.com/eng/products/aircraft/tde/d-436-148fm-fm-1/) generating 8,600 kilogram-force each (34,400 kilogram-force total)
* **Maximum Speed:** 800 kilometres per hour
* **Range:** 7,700 kilometres
* **Service Ceiling:** 12,100 metres
* **Unit Cost:** $100,000,000
The aircraft will be fitted with a strengthened landing gear assembly consisting of a twin-wheeled nose gear and multi-wheeled main gear. It will have short takeoff and landing (STOL) capabilities, with the aircraft able to takeoff and land on 600 to 800 metre-long unpaved runways (depending on the payload being carried). The cargo hold will have a volume of 400m³, and will be able to accommodate construction equipment, military vehicles, helicopters, humanitarian cargo, and many other types of cargo. The modernized, NATO-compatible glass cockpit will feature a heads-up display and the latest navigation and communication equipment, along with modern and reliable avionics to support safe operation of the aircraft. The D-436-148FM turbofan engines will deliver increased speed and range with less fuel consumption, which is estimated to be 4,600 kilograms per flight hour. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4ZktWVlBhU2UzVmlwMFcxb2FqazFvOU9qUWZBTjg1ZzVEYTFqSURIU1kxSVpKNVRGZEJ4TXBKNU93Z0pTTmctZ2ZsYTB4ZG9xQmdVY3Z5QkRhZG82VVE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVa21qeW1nQ096T0lhVVRDYnVtVkNPYVMyN1VBWlo3enRkVDdzWVA2ODRIMC1xZGN5bVNWMllVQ0ZuNGF0dFEzLWhObXF2SUloLUFCR0FkY0REMnZYalJIcVUwdW5adExVNC13WWtkWXBrWXlSbVRqVzJKc3gtSFhjazBTSjk4ZXlTbEhhY3hlOUtZS2Z0bTBua3RXNGQya2NvSHVLeENlQVYyM29BWDEyTlNjPQ== |

it's clear that the recent surge in oil prices is putting a strain on the U.S. economy, especially with inflation already on the rise. consumers are feeling the pinch at the pump, and businesses are facing higher production costs. this could have a significant impact on consumer spending and overall economic growth. | r/econmonitor | comment | r/econmonitor | 2023-11-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4VW1HNTFfYk13RjdxRjJyeE9BZmUwQ3BUSHp1WEF6anFpMlBHeU9zX191TVo3MUl3Nnl5eDFaUVN5bnY2bU85MUlmWFpVMFo0ZFQta1czcU5vZW0yN0E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVT1EtWnE2enBhT2NZNmFyZndrSXhXaVl3NGtCbWpiemVKWm41MFg2X3FfZWZQYjJrVmtYclVNUmdUUTJ4SldURFhtSXJsQTRJRkNJTmx1MDk5ZkpBWlo1d0ZzTVVNX3ltX01ONGpIT3VoWUxObHo5R01iLTdBQ1gzbndTOVN6VnZ2RmJWelMxMDJHcjMzb3lNYXUtNXJ3dFhKeTI4NW1iUkJUTl9LUWRHMkR5M3Z4T3o5YnZxS0F1V0dEQWpuTVowRUFhYVFac2V1dWVDTVZ5Q0tpcndoZz09 |
House of Commons, London
*April 1st 2027*
Chancellor Rachel Reeves today delivered her third full budget, and what is being labelled the first true Labour budget since March 2010. Having courted businesses in the runup to the 2024 election and stood on a platform of limited tax rises and fiscal responsibility, up to now Labour has attempted to portray itself as the party of business and hasn't targeted the wealthy. This has caused some consternation among their core vote, and they have now targeted the wealthy with grabs on inheritance tax, private schools, landlords, and those with non-domiciled tax status. The biggest changes are outlined below:
* Loopholes in inheritance tax (agricultural and business property relief) that currently allow farms and businesses to be passed down at death without their families paying the divisive 40pc charge will be closed, raising £4bn ($4.8bn).
* Private schools will be stripped of their charitable status, allowing VAT to be charged on the fees they charge, with revenues generated expected to reach £1.7bn ($2.1bn). This money will be used to waive tuition fees for \~ 48,000 students undertaking teaching degrees each year, and to provide CPD and top up courses for teaching assistants to wrest the turnover in teachers leaving the profession.
* The fuel duty freeze will cease from Monday 5th April, adding 5p duty per litre to the cost of petrol and diesel. This is expected to raise £5.4bn ($6.6bn) per year to 2030, and will be used to finance the rollout of electric car charging points and a £7,500 scrappage scheme for motorists who buy a UK manufactured electric car.
* Loopholes that allow properties used as holiday lets for less than 140 days without paying council tax will be closed. The loophole allowing second homeowners to switch from paying council tax to business rates will also be closed. The council tax on second homes will be doubled, and for homes that remain unoccupied, will increase by 100% for every year that they remain unoccupied. Money raised will go to local authorities and not into general taxation and revenue. Theoretically, this should increase provisions for local services, in reality it'll probably go on bloating the workforce, pay rises and pension increases for local council workers...
* Non-domiciled tax status will be abolished, with provision put in place for genuinely temporary residents. This is anticipated to raise £3.5bn ($4.2bn) which will subsidise a £3,000 per year pay rise for nurses and nursing associates.
* The Digital Services Tax will increase from 2% to 6% (forecast to raise [£3bn by 2024-25](https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm5803/cmselect/cmpubacc/732/report.html) at 2%), raising an additional £7bn ($8.4bn)\*\* before rising to 12% in 2028/29. This will finance the 'national wealth fund', through which the government will retain a share in renewable assets including gigafactories, clean steel plants and net-zero industrial clusters.
* The above measure will offset a reductions of 25% in corporation tax for business that pay the 'real living wage' rather than the minimum wage, or a 50% reduction in corporation tax for small businesses with profits between £50,000 - £ 250,000.
\*\* This is assuming that a rise will prompt some businesses to shift their tax arrangements / consumer behaviour to change if prices are increased, so not a linear increase of multiplying it by a factor of 3.
In response, the Shadow Chancellor criticsed the Labour government for heaping yet more taxes upon those who work hardest. Chris Philp told the House "We have an unfair tax burden, one that sees only 40% of our working population pay any income tax, and just 300,000 taxpayers foot the bill for 30% of all income tax. Treating these people as cash cows will backfire, there is only so much they can be milked before they seek new pastures. It is time to reduce taxation, roll back the state and reducing spending, not bolster an inefficient public sector with even more shirkers and bigger departments."
With speculation of an election next year, the budget has been widely seen as an effort to unite Labour voters ahead of what will be a tough campaign. The government retain a healthy lead in the polls, but focus groups are understood to have reported back to Labour HQ that the government has done too little to address inequalities and has run a near Tory-lite government. The Chancellor is understood to be earmarking some of the money raised but not allocated above to a massive overhaul of Universal Credit that is expected to form the cornerstone of Labour's 2028 election campaign.
Media Reaction to the Publication
*The Guardian* \- Labour prepare the ground for election, hiking taxes for the rich and opening the spending taps to hard pressed public services after more almost two decades of neglect.
*The Telegraph* \- Conservatives sense blood in the water as Reeves shows her true colours and goes after businesses and the wealthy ahead of anticipated 2028 election.
*The Times* \- Tax burden soars higher still, as Chancellor turns her sights on motorists and the wealthy to arrest brain drain of nurses and teachers and shore up local services.
*Daily Mail* \- Workers fleeced, shirkers feast. Chancellor robs the aspirational and wealth generators to finance scroungers and the hotel-dwelling migrant community.
*The Sun* \- Government tighten the screw on hard working families and business owners. Join our campaign to reverse the attack on motorists!
*The Independent* \- Poorest families, care homes, nurses and teachers to be rewarded as government finally bare their teeth and target the wealthy to fund public services.
*Financial Times* \- Reeves cautiously increases taxes, but runs the risk of scaring investors and the wealthy away at a time of Breentry uncertainty. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4LUlWWkZUMTZKT3pMeDRHa0s1d1o2cHk3dExfX0t0a25MOEdaa3RkTmlHeGFTeXRuMzB5d1ktUUhwNFpDZ3pxQ3A1dHFreVNWVElrNFYwQVlwUDMwYVE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVYWtSWmFMZ1NLR0RSblk3cVVuUTBvTnBlbHZBTXVRdVpDcEFCSWNmZGI2WkhFbzhjMkpxcWw2SGwwT05yekVIaTBYU2ZzelJfOHNGU0NXYUlxWFZZc2lTcVg0dFlBXzF1UlFYQkVORUV4bzhPVlN2ai1FbkZfLXI3UEtJX0JaZXVMc2I0N2Qwams4SmJLT0EybWtZNG5wLTFHNHFnZXk5dVhNOEZkcTQ2SzhvdWdxWTZucFpwV3R5Ylc1YTU5bWZ1 |

* Stealth: While I question the usefulness and value proposition, I won't make you remove it -- just be aware these won't matter much given a) the size of the ship; b) it's escorts and/or air wings would give away its position anyways.
* Aircraft: This is acceptable in a pinch but typically not more than 80.
* Production: given the advanced propulsions methods I won't allow the retro to 2025. As such, first ship being laid down is in 2029, is coming out 2033, commissioned in 2037. I don't think the navy has the capabilities to accept a new carrier every year. I'd prefer 1 every 2 years initially, and then as per the mechanics (6mo/1y every 4th). In any case, I'm limiting the size of the class to **10+5 option** and this is being generous given the lack of justification for this amount of carriers. The 5 as option will only be allowed if an additional [EVENT] post is made justifying the need for them. The fusion reactors will count as a design upgrade. | r/globalpowers | comment | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4dFAwMUhlX0NzNkVzUnQyRUhBbXJBSmlqR1hNVTF5U05WYy1KS29UMi1vdFN6a1RXVjhpdFRjSV8tRUpXVC1Nc3Zsb3A4NWZURjl2cHQ5NkZ3bzR0Wmc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVYTRILWxVYVlidVFUQ0tEbVNjQ1RJQVEzLXlCc0JQZEtiMHVmQ0pKb0ZsbUQ0dzhlMDhfNFVhN1F0X0dJMUFydnp4TU5INWdncFFpVEdCeGEtWlFHc2xCZ0R3NGJMcDFrbmp5bjFUYlptcUd5eVBKWVpoRlM3OUszNk4xOWg5ZHZicGkzejk5MkZXUjR1eFlGSzBxQnU1QzN6WmdqM2FoOUJqSzdITzFaY3lrUGZKbUVlQWlJQW1HaFhrekl1NWdN |

# Indian Education Reformation Plan
Indian education system, comparing to other countries, are somewhat incompetent. Many problems in education also affect on labour market, making Indian workforce not really able to compete in international labour market. After careful analysis, government made a conclusion, that reformation of Indian education must be realised, and some measures should be undertaken to create a stepping stone for further labour market reforms.
**Better for kids – better for nation!**
Indian educational schooling system has many problems indeed: typically for countries with big poverty, it’s luck of funding but also more specifically for Indian context – luck of qualified teachers and the framework of system itself. First of all, Indian government will increase education expenditures to 3,3% of GDP or 143.5 billion dollars. Existing system ensuring, that students would have big enough luggage of theory, but never stands for a practice. Perhaps, government could not resolve problem altogether, especially ones that require enormous funding, but it can change the way this system works. In this sense, Ministry of Human Resources developed another approach and vision towards school years of Indian children. Some of points of this policy are recalled with National Education Policy, developed but MHR earlier. The vision states, that Indian pupils should receive less theoretical, but much more practical education. It worth noting, that all of reform plans will receive additional support from educational structure (for example, printing updated textbooks with more practical than theoretical examples). Realisation of this thesis goes with some key points:
***1)*** Upper primary education should be reformed, but especially – it’s curricular. Today upper primary has a disease, that really affect Indian education in many aspects – too much theory. Indeed, upper primary as institution tries to teach kids with some things, that should not be taught in this age, due to parents’ pressure. New regulations, enacted by Ministry, will ensure, that curricular indeed not so broad as it should be, also regulations would have the list of school subjects with detailed content of the program and possible ways for these programs to be taught. Indian government would delegate power to regulate some incentives for schools with respect of state needs, but state’s power would be limited only by incentivizing schools with more effective or more accessible studying of some subjects, but states couldn’t pressure schools to overcome program, while the government and states cooperatively would also ensure, that schools can meet this requirements.
***2)*** Need of reform also quite high in lower secondary education. In lower secondary Indian pupils usually meet with their first exam – All Indian Secondary School Examination or AISSE. The problem is that this exam, with regards to its grade (10) is too difficult. MHR will make it a bit easier, based on only core material, that is needed to pass successfully through this exam. Despite thinking, that this change would not make significant changes in educational system, it would. The main purpose of making AISSE easier is to make higher enrolment rates in higher secondary education, because family income usually doesn’t allow to afford higher secondary after passing AISSE, because private school fees and private tuitions are too costly for families to afford preparation to exam and higher secondary respectively. Making AISSE easier would mean, that there is no need in private tuitions and big preparations. That would be no worsening in quality of education because majority of pupils anyway passing AISSE (91.1% in 2019, expect to have same values in 2026 lol), meaning AISSE would be passed without big financial exhaustion for families. There would also take place an informational campaign, informing people about changing of AISSE conception.
***3)*** Higher secondary education also in a need of change. Bigger number of pupils will be gathered in this educational section, but for us it’s very needed to make right selection of pupils in higher education – to colleges or universities. Government believes that there is a need to make so called “senior” or All India Senior School Certificate Examination (AISSCE) more difficult but change it conception. That would mean, that AISSCE would be made not so much though memorisation rather than constructing more different real-life situations on exam. This concept will make exam, and respectively a preparation, more development oriented. On the other hand, this would not mean, that bad AISSCE marks closing door to next section of education – pupil still could become a student in college. Pass threshold for AISSCE would be determined by pass rates of pupil in previous year in state, making system more selective and competitive where it actually needs to be. Also new version of AISSCE would be developed not only by Central Board of Secondary Education – representatives of top uni’s (they would be chosen with multiple criteria, like international rankings, number of patents registered, number of students employed with some salary threshold in any sector except high educational and so on), like Indian Institutes of Technology will also take part in creation of new AISSCE, meeting their demands for qualified pupils. This is needed cause MHR is planning to abolish any entrance university exams, replacing it with AISSCE, making entrance to university more transparent and less corrupt. Also, MHR would delegate to Central Institute of Vocational Training a creation of more skill-based curricula with a lot more vocational subjects, also with participation of top universities representatives. It would directly strengthen our future workforce, cause more material could be learned in colleges and universities – also, many students could find job with these skills. As always, schools would have big autonomy in choosing vocational subjects to be taught, but they would be additionally incentivized by states or government with significant tax credits of subsidies, but in both cases, they would need a close cooperation with private companies. The confirmation of this cooperation could be received only by tracking, that some voluntary on-place training is taking place. Finding partners and making such deals, editing curricula is not an easy process, but government estimates, that 2 years would be enough for market to adjust.
***4)*** Better teachers – better education. Sadly, this is not about India – preparation of teachers often in hands of private market and this market is weakly regulated. Pre-service teachers often couldn’t become in-service teachers, because of inability to pass Teacher Eligibility Test. Complex work here required: from one hand, government will update curricula for all Teaching Education/Training Institutions (most of them are private). These curricula will become mandatory for all Institutions, but institutions still could be competitive by for example, quality of preparations or preparations speed. Institutions that don’t meet requirements would be shut down. Also, MHR will update system of in-service teachers work evaluation, based on 360° evaluation, specifically by classroom observations, peer reviews and random students feedback, also, but in less degree, would be considered opinion of other stakeholders – colleagues, school management, parents and so on. Important part of evaluation would be also PISA results of school, which is also a much more better criteria than results of All India exams.
**Forging employable workforce – higher education changes**
Indian higher education is one of the most promising and quick developing in the world. Yet it has some crucial problems, and the main of them are employability and luck of efficient research activity. Indian higher education has an interesting feature – colleges in India are not independent, but they are affiliated with universities, what means that this can potentially make transition to new system more efficient and faster. To improve higher education, Indian government enacted some changes:
***1)*** Many colleges and universities still operating on poor educational standards. It’s difficult for government to pressure on universities to establish clear, state- or national-wide curricular – this could harm universities autonomy, but government could partly do it on colleges. To make them more attractive for employers to cooperate, Regional Institutes of Education, National Council for Educational Research and Training, state governments and employer organizations and some employers themselves (in respect of their size) will participate in making some curricula requirements taking in consideration employment need. Such curricula won’t be mandatory, but it would be better for colleges to follow requirements, because they would be more competitive and that would be easier for them to cooperate with employers. Also, each state would have its own recommended curricula requirement depending on economic needs. Every college would be certificated with meeting these minimal requirements. Information about certification and curricula content would be updated each year on Regional Institutes sites, as well as on NCERT site. Some standards of certification for colleges and universities also would be reviewed to ensure that next generation of colleges and universities would be better. These changes, even if they are only recommended, could greatly influence on Indian labor market.
***2)*** Indian higher education is free… well, formally, as Indian law is stating. In practice, private institutions making many by “capitation fees”. Such illegal market can create some disappointment for government, but, on the other hand, some possibilities for trade-off could be made. Indian government decided to make such “capitation fees” legal, which would slightly decrease cost of education, but also decided to bring some requirements to the table – all universities must create autonomous and transparent structure with clear decision-making process and meet EU requirements in academical standards and quality assurance. For state universities also would be created State Higher Education Councils, that would step by step overtaking duties of Regional Institutes of Education in matter of states education policies. Also, SHECs will be responsible for planning, quality assurance, monitoring, evaluation, and provision of high education in state. State universities with properly functionating (they must meet EU requirements) SHEC will receive additional funding from government. This will make educational policy in state more harmonized and states themselves will be more autonomous.

I'm feeling sort of burned out from work these past few days, and I need to get the fuck out of my apartment and touch grass instead of spending most of my free time playing GP. Guangzhou is very nice this time of year, and I think I need to spend some more time outdoors.
I'll probably come back sometime during 2028. In the meantime, I'm looking at other options for 3ics, since Nevada has disappeared, and Frunze never posted anything.
Anyway, I'll be back later.

When Putin announced his plans for completely mobilizing the Russian people and economy in order to destroy Ukraine, it was met, expectedly, with massive backlash across the country. Immediately after the speech, tens of thousands took to the streets to protest, most of these being young men who knew they would be headed to the Donbas deathtraps.
Before the speech took place, Putin had ordered hundreds of thousands of police to be pre-positioned on the streets in an effort to be ready for protests, which he knew were coming.The police succeeded in stopping initial protests from achieving anything noteworthy, but failed in ending them. Protestors trying to storm government buildings in St. Petersburg and Rostov-on-Don during the first days of the protests were stopped with great police violence resulting in dozens dead.
The news getting out about protestors dying combined with the first mobilization notices sent out lead to protests exploding in size to hundreds of thousands if not millions.Slowly, the police started crumbling and, in proper Russian fashion, were overrun by the sheer number of protestors.
At this point many tens of local government buildings in smaller towns and cities had fallen to protestors. This was either due to the number of police not being enough, police being unmotivated, or the cops actually joining the protestors. Putin, hiding in a mansion somewhere in the Urals guarded by hundreds of his personal military personnel, gave the order to police to fire at will.
As the order came through, police with assault rifles, pistols, machine guns, and even grenade launchers in some instances, first started firing on some of the most aggressive demonstrators, and then at all of them. As marchers started scattering, thousands of dead lay on the pavement across the Federation.
The police then learned a very helpful lesson in combat - if you fire, then expect some fire back. Some demonstrators were armed during their protests and started firing back, although they were in such low numbers that they couldn’t stop the police onslaught. Thousands of Russians ran home and got their hands on any weaponry they could. Small militias of civilians armed with anything from assault rifles to pans formed and started fighting against the police.
As militias and police started clashing, it was clear to see that the protestors would win this, and quickly if nothing was done. Putin ordered the complete mobilization of what was left of the Rosgvardiya and recalled tens of thousands of troops from Ukraine to help against the protestors. Additionally, in his great wisdom, he called up Viktor Afzalov, the head of the Air Force.
Rosgvardiya only managed to pull up somewhere around 2,000 troops across the entire country, mainly due to a lot of them dying in Ukraine and the rest not wanting to go fight for Putin against their own people.
The Air Force was, in a stroke of pure genius by Putin, completely called back from Ukraine and ordered to only start engaging protestors. This resulted in hundreds of buildings in some of the largest cities in the country being pulverized as fighters, attack helicopters, and even Tu-series heavy bombers conducting nondiscriminatory raids around-the-clock. These attacks were as deadly for the pro-Putin forces as for the demonstrators, as pilots had no interest in properly checking who was who on the ground and just preferred shooting where they saw the most people.
The 39,000 soldiers recalled from the Donbas were immediately sent to Rostov-on-Don to put down protests with their armored vehicles and military experience, but the exhausted soldiers who had been fighting sometimes non-stop for more than 5 years, surprisingly, were quite mad at Putin and the government’s leadership.
As they arrived in the city, most of the units joined the protestors, while a small number carried out their orders of defeating the militias. Videos of T-62 tanks driving through police lines and even some tank-on-tank combat within the city circulated online, but as much as the police and Army tried, Rostov-on-Don, the city where Prigozhin’s ‘March of Justice’ in 2023 began, became the first city to completely fall into the hands of demonstrators.
Putin responded by ordering the launch of some 80 Shahed loitering munitions at the city. These mostly struck civilian housing and some ex-government buildings, but overall had no effect in stopping the protestors on Don.
The country stands at the edge of a full-fledged civil war, and the man who everybody wants to shoot in the back of the head, Putin, is hiding miles away guarded by what might be the most capable military force Russia still possesses. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4VlJnMndKOGN5Q2ltNEtnLU4ybk83Z2ZJam9Gbnh4V25nejljVjJjcE9wd2xHV1FfVkdUOEdNT2VxMHRUajNVUGtwQmdYYXV5MUZMeTlsSkNNbWxzRXc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVS25FS0FtdmNlQlFyb0JSTERyZHRGcC15YWtJQUxNa2N6dEtvTEVJR2VFQWZZd1dNZ0ZNSWY0d3lqYTV0bDlkbXhIZlFuaTkyOXlDRE9HOC1lMFBheVRKdndDZ2VMeFhSYV9nZGx0bzRkWmZrcXpxa3NpODJXekhRTzk3Y2daWlRpVjZFSE9QVUhXZHhBUUhCcGxzS3FleXNKcDdsYTRHTU03aC1YbG9yVFUybVlOcDBaSzZmaERqWEduWDJ5d1UxV2JsQzhORzFlWjBQb3NNQUdNR2JXUT09 |

It's simple but it's not quite as simple as CNN doing a story or two sympathetic to innocent Palestinian babies dying.
It developed over decades of the rich paying their media to undermine democracy in the U. S. It's clear the U. S. no longer has popular government. The term "popular government" is now as verboten at the _New York Times_ as the terms "sovereignty of the people" or "dominion of the majority" they outlawed 60 years ago. Biden is so good with his always low approval numbers he openly declares he's "not going to change a thing."
So why would anyone in the U. S. today prefer democratic Israeli lives over the lives of people living in an absolute despotism?
The entire body of Enlightenment thought on both sides of the Atlantic would be 100% behind Israel. But MSM gets paid to ridicule and expunge all great thinkers from American thought and, rest assured, pro Palestinian "progressives" are as likely to read _Spirit of Laws_ as a math prof appearing at a MAGA rally.
Zero.
Zip.
Not in a billion years.
So they think the live of someone living in an absolute despotism is equal to that of a free person.
To be sure anti semites being disreputable opportunists hop in on any wagon they can get but that isn't the 800 lb gorilla Israelis and Jews are up against.
Compare Israel to Jefferson on the French Revolution and Israel is an *a fortiori*:
I'd rather everyone in Europe die save for "one Adam and one Eve" than to see the Republicans in France fail. | r/media_criticism | post | r/media_criticism | 2023-11-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4NXU0aUNWbXNHa1hPMi1wQ1ZPdm9UaFo4RVBoTUtnMVQ5NTM1TjBWaldlZnJlcWpzWk9OdTgxZElXYWF6c3lSR21BLXB0VG1JX1diRGczTG9SNjdLVEE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVWXl4RlQxNmdrX0ctMHBlVmFfdVQyRjBkel9UVG1HMDRsLW1jU0NLVlBsdVhVTi1QSmdvczN0aTZqVy1rLWJ2MlBHeUN0NGpERW9LcVp2TDE5ZFBYV2xhRkRLU3FuWVUxdHctUDUwQ0s4cXRKZlczXzE2VHNFZTRsb25TNERpeFU0aEFYOGMxUnpiSTl4Tlp3aWpCM25pREc4OEd2RlJzXzJ6cldyeWZ4YXNfUkVQQ3VQT3gycGhheTZXNkF1aWRqY2FrLVhRM1RNRkZSUDk4M2RBNEFtQT09 |

######*13th April 2027;*
“There has been such significant breaches of law and order across the country, and the efforts are so concerted that we simply lack the police officers as well as the Gendarmerie, combined, to deal with the matter at once. Now, Minister, what are we to do now? Is further force required?”
> Welcome to your nightmare.
> Come on inside.

###SUMMARY; Reuters French 2027 Presidential Elections - Round 1;
*By Elaine Santeurs;*
#####***IT*** *has been noted within the past week in France, leading up towards the First Round of the 2027 Presidential Elections, that a major increase in politically-motivated criminal offences has been noted. Whilst major protests have been ever-present within Paris, Lyon, and Lille, among other cities, since January, it has been particularly notable in the past week that seemingly, supporters from the parties of candidates Jean-Luc Melenchon, Marine Le Pen, Gerald Darmanin, and Eric Zemmour have all clamoured to gain any sort of advantage. However, it was the voters at the polls to decide which two candidates to send through towards the second round of the Presidential Elections for 2027, and which of the 10 candidates present shall leave the running. No matter the results, even if it did go down to a showdown between two more amiable candidates towards the general population, there is only guaranteed to be a general uptick in the amount of disorder present within France.*
By all means, the French faith within their current system of governance, and how to fix its many endemic flaws that have particularly shown themselves since the 2008 Great Recession and election of Nicolas Sarkozy, has fractured upon the fractures within society. A general mix of opposition to the current system has come in forms ranging from general reform (e.g. Ensemble) towards full replacement (e.g. La France Insoumise), but the atmosphere is of change. It matters much that even the incumbent Ensemble party wish not to stick to the current status quo; their platform has been raised on gradual reforms to fix up all of the current systems, such as overhauls to the taxation system, increase in the powers of the Prime Minister to stand far closer to the President in all matters of importance, and investigations within the EU to try to finally end the long recovery period following the triple shocks of the early 2020s (Covid-19, Ukraine War, 2022-23 Delayed Recession). No doubt, their wish is to merely make it into the second round - even Macron in his re-election only received 27% of the first-round vote. His desired successor, Véran, seemed set to receive even less, and yet with so many stronger candidates, even a smaller percentage could be enough.
It must not be understated how competitive many of the candidates have been. For each and every TV debate, there assumed 5 candidates to be the main combatants for 2027 - from right-wing to left-wing: Zemmour, Le Pen, Darmanin, Véran, and Melenchon. Each, including the seemingly-aligned Darmanin and Le Pen (the former of whom is aided by Bardella, the latter’s former main ally), went quite at each other, attacking on the slightest details whether about climate change, protests, the status of Russia and China, inactivity in certain political offices, among other issues. One TV debate though, for Friday 26th March 2027, was called off on the night due to an assumed bomb threat from the CGC. Though the group have repeatedly denied the accusations of such a bomb plot, claiming that they have no right to threaten potential national leaders that would instantly crush their small movement with full force, suspicions have been raised from the right of the candidate pedestals about dealing with such ‘rebellions’. The main answer given was force, and this idea of concerted brinkmanship, and not blinking in the opponent’s face, has been cited as the main reason for what was to come.
From all sides came a barrage of words and actions, meant only to defile political opponents. Of the five candidates, only Marine Le Pen’s Twitter (formerly known as X) account was not hacked at some point, with each of the hacked account’s posting pettily defamatory imagery that sought to disavow any other potential Presidents. From misogyny to threats to absolutist talk, the wide array of harm pushed forward by the supporters has absolutely and completely marred this election already. Once social media had been pushed into a hellfire - with Twitter’s Board of Directors cutting off access to Twitter posting in France to people with over 100,000 followers in order to stem this wave of hacking by providing new 3-factor authentication for log-in - it was the turn of the streets to feel the fury. In Lyon alone, approximately €50 Million in damages has been paid out for by the Borne government, with many business owners interviewed by the press claiming it was “every type of maniac and psychopath” that had targeted them, “no matter the colour of the pin on their chest”. However, worse was yet to come.
On the morning of the 13th April, a wave of mass assaults on polls within areas with strong party-line opinions quickly took over the headlines. In one video posted on Twitter (formerly known as X), two men can be seen trying to hack down a power-line connecting the station to outside power, after placing a number of heavy logs on the outside of the door into the polling station. Another video showed one woman walking into a polling station and ripping up the records of all that had voted so far, and who was eligible for each polling station. Throughout the day, the number arrested by the police and Gendarmerie through the day for such actions grew to the point that a number of army personnel had to fill in for the police, who were too busy looking after the arrested. The sight of armed soldiers on the street did little, and so it came to the firefighters and hoses to finally solve the disorder. Close to 16,200 people have so far been recorded as of yet today (15:00 on the 14th April) for such offences, with many tracked down using facial recognition systems installed by candidate Gerald Darmanin during his tenure as Minister of the Interior.
Today, the 14th, has not seen the end of the rallies, as many remain adamant that their candidate was unduly robbed of their rightful place in the second round. In total, 6 different candidates were considered the ‘most voted-for candidate’ across the regions - Corsica voted for Jean Lasselle, for the 6th of the bunch. The first-round’s highest percentage was a demonstrably-small 17.87%, for Marine Le Pen. The second-choice, for 17.43%, was Jean-Luc Melenchon. This means that it will be two quite ‘extremist’ parties to be chosen from for the general populous for the second round. The biggest loser was, at 15.56% and less than 2% off, Gerald Darmanin. Of the 31.131.424 votes cast, 7.55% were blank or for abstentions, and turnout was a very low 63.2% - either of these could have easily brought another of the candidates, even Véran (12.62%) and Zemmour (11.02%) into the next round, the latter plus Darmanin calling blood. As for other candidates, Jean Lassalle’s share of 5.23%, ahead of the Republicans by just 9.655 votes, another historic step in the downfall of the older Republican and Socialist parties.

Now, it will be Melenchon vs Le Pen in the second round. We look forward to seeing how the final vote shall conclude, just to observe how much France is about to change.

**June 2027**
As Russia has [refused our terms for peace](https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalPowers/comments/17xlgpw/diplomacy_end_of_the_line/kao98xz/) (and any negotiations whatsoever), and Putin is deluded enough to think that he can [continue the war](https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalPowers/comments/1822ci0/event_never_surrender_die_trying/) with any hope for success, we now have no choice but to expel the occupiers once and for all. Our cause is just, our fury is righteous, and we will bring victory to Ukraine.
To that end, President Zelenskyy has authorized the Armed Forces of Ukraine to conduct two distinct operations. The first and largest operation will be the liberation of Donbas, and the liquidation or expulsion of any remaining Russian and separatist forces in that region. The Kremlin was kind enough to [withdraw 39,000 troops from Donbas](https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalPowers/comments/183g20e/event_real_hitler_in_the_bunker_moment_right_here/) in a vain attempt to quell increasing domestic opposition to the regime of Vladimir Putin. These troops have now turned against their masters in Moscow, and their absence from the frontlines will be greatly beneficial for the success of our operation.
The second operation will be the elimination of the [Russian forces that have illegally occupied the internationally recognized territory of Moldova](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_military_presence_in_Transnistria) since 1992. This occupation has done nothing but destabilize Moldova and undermine its sovereignty, and the presence of Russian forces in one of our neighbouring states has become an intolerable threat to our own security since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. This military operation is being carried out with both the consent and participation of Moldova, as the two countries agreed several years ago to jointly resolve the issue of Russian military occupation in Moldova. Ukraine is eager to free other nations from the violent grip of Russian imperialism, and to see them finally free to pursue their own destinies without interference from the blood-stained Kremlin. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-26 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4ZnRPbGtwMFA0U1BuRHZjS1hZSzJrRGFwRFlvVUF1MzI5NkN5WjBUbTRCU0RmS2ZIeWZ4N2J3WnYtVk1iODFIVHZTRnlRV2xmRkhweWRjeEE3WlJwX3c9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVSm96ZUl1V0ZrMVh3Rk52OFY5OVNMa1pnUXpzT2JWUFVzWTZmdDVwTGoyZ291RHlYRkcwTWdUZHVpSFRxS3RQTUs0RmxRazhmWXRUTHl6OWdlTWs0dW9TSFRQSlJrMVpMNmE5Q2drZTNpeDRGT25EUGVueFU1dzdDNjhYZE9Zc01yaGNGajJnVElubGU3aVA3V2J0bTRpejBDTUN1TWUtMVhlNkpCaGlnS3ppM01zR0xyWHNkYXRrcVVwbnBkSkk1 |

Democracy and the requisite scholarship can be called scientific and life or death important, but "highbrow?" It would be better to call the Federalist Papers "plebian."
Madison could easily work with today's goobers.
So Columbia Journalism Review, often a dupe of the very media they are supposed to be independently reviewing, is wrong on that usage of "highbrow."
But CJR is quite correct if they believe prank posts are enormously disruptive to non thinking foot soldiers.
As I tell foot soldiers in either party, if you want to be a foot soldier, join the military. Citizenship isn't about taking orders from jerryspringer media talking points and becoming a repeater router.
Democracy is about ideas, critical thinking and the sovereignty of the people in an informed debate -- everything money grubbing jerryspringer media get paid to suppress.
So when I first posted the Federalist #10 and attributed it to Karlo Marx _Das KapitalOne_ there was some initial glee as the ones who knew how to Google watched the GOP "yer a Marxist" foot soldiers pounce on the hook, line and sinker.
I tried it a couple weeks later and no response. One of the Democrats said, "Wassa matter? Last week they were jumping into the boat."
Shortly thereafter the ones who weren't pranked quit posting altogether.
This is easy to explain:
Why debate a non thinking foot soldier with zero agency when the rich and their minions in the media just sit back laughing at the poor fighting the poor?
Few things are guaranteed in politics but one thing is 100% certain: you will never glean any advantage "debating" a poor foot soldier with zero agency.
A good trash post helps everyone see that basic truth.
"Socrates is plebes."

GVA has stated that they have achieved production of limited amounts of explosive devices, such as anti-tank weapons and fragmentation bombs. They said that these weapons will never be used apart from training and warfare. Many public speakers are worried about the possibility of these weapons being turned against the country, but spokesperson Patual O'ksaum of Green Valley Arms has denied any opportunity for this exists.
The explosives, although crude, are being thoroughly reviewed and developed by the Ghana Armed Forces and its subsequent partners.
Weapons like these have existed for over half a century, used by many paramilitary and non-professional forces, yet with Ghana it may not be within the budget of the country to afford higher standards of equipment.
2 Factories responsible for the production of the AV53 Assault Carbine have reached a critical point of supply where the steel imports and production have hit a sustainable supply for the manufacturing of these products.
GVA expressed interest in manufacturing of optics and lobbying for the creation of more bills in favor of the military complex, such as a automotive company for the production of transport vehicles. It's unsure whether this will pass but one can only hope that if it does, it works.

The massive defeat of Russia in Ukraine has not been without its consequences, most acutely felt in the post-Soviet sphere, where the complete elimination of Russian military power has left the world in flux. Central Asia, the Caucuses, these forgotten corners of the world have seen quite a bit of change over the past several years as a result--change that should probably receive a lot more attention from abroad.
**Kazakhstan**
There was a time when Russia was utterly dominant over the steppes. No longer. President Tokayev is a cunning operator, and has spent the past several years cautiously moving away from Russia, backing up slowly from the ongoing shitshow that is the Russian economy and state.
Most significantly, Kazakhstan exited the Eurasian Economic Union in 2025, with Russian inflation spilling over into Kazakhstan due to the convertibility of the tenge and sanctions making open trade with Russia increasingly difficult. It became clear that the EEAU was an economic albatross around Kazakhstan’s neck, one that had to be eliminated.
Concurrent with Kazakhstan’s departure from the EEAU, Kazakhstan has intensified ties with the European Union and Turkey, as well as retaining warm relations with China. The European Union is by a significant margin Kazakhstan’s largest trading partner, and Kazakhstan has expressed an openness towards pursuing membership in the European Union, while presently seeking both to join the European Neighborhood Policy and the Council of Europe.
Domestically, Kazakhstan is more democratic than it was in 2022, but remains oriented towards Tokayev’s programme to establish Kazakhstan as a dominant-party democracy. Major media outlets are almost all aligned with the ruling party, which holds most of the legislature, and elections are free, but not fair. International observers comment on positive progress towards democracy, but complain that the government and ruling party seem rather uninterested in “genuine pluralism”.
**Kyrgyzstan**
Shortly after Kazakhstan’s exit from the EEAU, Kyrgyzstan exited the organization for similar reasons. Unlike Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan has not conducted a particularly Europe-focused foreign policy, and also unlike Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan is a bona-fide democracy… of sorts. Following the defeat of incumbent President Japarov, he has been replaced by former President Jeenbekov, at least until such time as another revolution takes place–it’s only a matter of time in Kyrgyzstan.
Kyrgyzstan has, however, retained close commercial ties with Russia and actively supported sanctions-dodging activities, and a significant Russian diaspora population resides in Bishkek where they hide from conscription and conduct many business ventures. Coincidentally, Kyrgyzstan has also become something of a centre for cybercrime in the past several years as both Russian and Chinese organized groups deploy everything from scam calls to ransomware from shiny new office blocks.
For the most part, the foreign affairs of Kyrgyzstan have remained calm, except for a brief scuffle in which Kyrgyz soldiers seized several patches of disputed territory from Tajikistan.
**Tajikistan**
Right, now here’s an utter mess. Tajikistan was never a particularly strong state to begin with, and the past several years have not at all been kind to it. The fall of the Afghan government in 2021 was a significant blow to Tajikistan, but the loss of Russian protection and sponsorship was perhaps a larger one, with the Russian installation at Dushanbe being virtually abandoned as it was stripped for resources and manpower to fight in Ukraine.
Without the active support of Russia, and with the volatile regional conditions \[read:Afghanistan\], Tajikistan has fallen into disarray, not helped by economic woes in large part caused by the devalued ruble sending Tajik remittances into a death-spiral. In a country where President Rahmon’s rule was already fragile, it was easy for foreign extremist groups–most prominently the Tehreek-i-Taliban Tajkistan and the Islamic State-Khorasan Province–to find recruits. The result has been a major insurgency that has spread across most of Tajikistan and has driven back Tajik regulars, many of whom have in fact defected to the Taliban or IS.
It is probably apt to say that Tajikistan is presently in the midst of a second, brutal civil war, with support flowing in from Afghanistan to the Tajik Taliban and internationally to IS-Khorasan. If nothing is done, it is entirely possible that Tajikistan will fall to the Taliban, if not worse, within the next year or two. While President Rahmon has received limited support from Uzbekistan, it is nothing significant as Uzbekistan itself is worried about a potential Taliban threat and is, in any case, more preoccupied with the business of making money than starting wars.
**Turkmenistan**
Locked in the midst of a dynastic struggle, young son and nominal President Serdar seized power in Ashghabat while his father, the erstwhile Supreme Leader, was on a diplomatic mission to Qatar.
Serdar has proven to be more mercurial and altogether less *fun* than his father, and is widely thought to be unpopular among both the Turkmen elite and the common Turkmen people, especially because he doesn’t care for horses *at all*, and in fact has not been seen on or with one since his father was sent into comfortable, Doha-based exile.
In terms of foreign policy Serdar has inexplicably grown *closer* to Russia and has played with abandoning Turkmenistan’s long-held neutral status; it is even rumored that he has sent arms and ammunition to Moscow. He has offended both the Turks and the Chinese on several occasions, and while construction on the Trans-Caspian pipeline has gone smoothly, the economy of Turkmenistan has remained in the doldrums. Turkmen-watchers are generally of the view that should the Chinese stop buying Turkmen gas, the entire country may well fall apart at the seams.
**Uzbekistan**
Uzbekistan has largely continued down the road of modernization and liberalization–well, if you can call it liberalization–with great success thus far. The young, dynamic President Mirziyoyev has drawn favorable \[and indeed, unfavorable\] comparisons in the international press to leaders like Paul Kagame, matching an authoritarian developmentalist regime with a much more open attitude towards international relations. Uzbekistan has secured significant foreign investment from Asia, the Middle East and Europe and is aggressively modernizing its economy.
Tashkent has drawn an increasing number of Russian ‘refugees’, if they can be called as such, attracted by a highly competitive jobs market for skilled labor and management. Exports are growing rapidly, with agricultural growth being superseded by a booming market in textile manufacturing and light industry, especially plastics and electronics. Exports largely flow to China and the Middle East, with the unstable situation in Afghanistan preventing any substantial trade with South Asia despite Mirziyoyev’s repeated visits to Islamabad and New Delhi.
Uzbek foreign policy remains non-aligned, though recently it has looked closely to Turkey and South Korea culturally, with a recent Blackpink concert in Uzbekistan drawing tens of thousands of loyal fans. An order of French Rafale aircraft indicates a shift towards Western military equipment and doctrine, while the human rights record of Uzbekistan has *mostly* improved, although allegations are beginning to circulate of severe exploitation of Afghan migrant labor, legal or otherwise.
**Afghanistan**
Blessedly forgotten by most of the world, the Taliban has seen a slow slide into obscurity as the country returns to a century numbered in the single digits. While some bolder foreign investors have attempted to exploit Afghan resources, nothing more than artesian mining has proven profitable. The Islamic State insurgency has worsened considerably as the Taliban has proven unable to pay all its members, nor provide the sense of adventure for which young Afghan men yearn–the Taliban is viewed as largely old, rich, and out of touch by the Afghan masses. IS controls large swaths of the eastern part of Afghanistan and currently extorts tolls from any trade attempting to cross into Pakistan, much to the Taliban’s dismay, and Taliban control of Jalalabad holds on only by a thread.
Al-Qaeda has also once again set up shop in Afghanistan, at the invitation of the Taliban, though it operates with at least a modicum of discretion and officially the Taliban claim to have no knowledge of their existence, denying any presence in Afghanistan. This is, of course, besides the pressure that the Taliban exerts on Tajikistan through their continued campaign against President Rahmon.
Perhaps most salient to the world, however, is the continued outpouring of Afghan refugees fleeing famine, the Taliban’s restrictive and erratic rule, the IS insurgency and the just generally poor conditions within Afghanistan. Despite efforts by states on all sides to rein in this migration, the most they’ve been able to do is extort larger bribes for crossing. Of note is a large number of Afghan migrants to Uzbekistan, where they are largely seasonal agricultural laborers, but most permanent migrants are currently moving through Iran–avoiding the IS-controlled Pakistani frontier–and from there through Turkey into Europe, although an increasing number are flying from Iran to various other transit points in North Africa, Russia and Belarus, and even Central America. The number of refugees/migrants is well into the hundreds of thousands and continues to place tension on all countries involved.
**Armenia**
Armenia has also exited the EEAU, like the other members, and, left with no recourse, has pursued an aggressively Europhilic course. Mind you, Armenia has conducted very little in the way of *actual reforms*, but they’re quite insistent on the fact that they want membership in the European Union, and in this they have attracted some support, with Cyprus being Armenia’s most ardent supporter in the EU.
Otherwise, however, Armenia has continued to hold itself at odds with Azerbaijan and Turkey, largely cutting itself off from international trade. Of particular note is that Armenia has concluded an agreement with Rosatom providing for another 10-year life extension on the already beleaguered Armenian Nuclear Power Plant, something that has caused both Turkey and Azerbaijan to complain about seismic and safety risks to the plant, which is now more than fifty years old. As without the plant Armenia will have virtually no electricity, however, it is understandable that they would choose this option.
**Azerbaijan**
Very little has changed since Azerbaijan retook the rest of Nagorno-Karabakh in 2023. The Trans-Caspian pipeline has been completed, but otherwise the Aliyev-led status quo remains.
**Transnistria**
The once-independent quasi-state has seen the writing on the wall and is presently working with Moldova to determine the most palatable way with which to reintegrate, and is currently talking about reunification being part of the \[presumably lengthy\] Moldovan accession to the European Union. Transnistrian leadership would much rather be wealthy, sketchy post-communist businessmen than rotting in a Romanian prison.
**Belarus**
Last, but not least, we have Belarus. Lukashenko, historically, has pursued a balancing act between Europe and Russia, but the massive protests of 2020 left him more or less entirely dependent on Putin. Belarus has continued on this pro-Russian course and is currently the only remaining member of the EEAU. They’re also the only member of CSTO that actually shows up to any of the events.
In the past five years, Belarus has largely rotted in place, much like Lukashenko himself, whom it is rumored is currently on dialysis with a rather poor prognosis. Lukashenko’s youngest son has shown himself to be a precocious and arrogant young man, but has in any case been named Colonel-General and Minister of Culture and Sport, despite being twenty-five and with no more military experience than his Chinese university occasionally required of him. Nikolai is widely considered to be Lukashenko’s preferred successor, and most take a dim view of him, though a few say he is unexpectedly thoughtful and clever in small settings.
The Belarusian Military is nothing more than a paper-shell at this point; with essentially any functional part of it being sold to Russia–admittedly, at well above its actual price. That being said, there is a small part of Lukashenko that still seeks to rule all of Russia–it just hasn’t asserted itself lately. The involvement of Belarus in the ongoing disintegration of the Russian regime is something that cannot yet be ruled out. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-27 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4MW53M0R3MnhIeW56YUdwTkdxRXhOX3FLRGpFLVBXUDVCMFhvdXF0ZTFxVktSYjFpUkUzN0o1cnNpRFlnUmFOUlZxTjZzVzJhZE9ZU1FseE1oM2NVUmc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVa3ZmU3cxR3BYQTgyZXR6RHR1M0NNR2hsQ2ZLUUxWVWUxdW1MZk9oU1VZZXk1MWM5NHFybFFqOGRybFB5cm90YWhpV00tRVdfY2xVN2FFZlNpakVjRDBzaFduLUxwQTU5QTgwUF9KSUhtbWRWS3NMaFQ0WHZReDZHckRNOURZQXgyb2xWOW9US29DY2tjaGVzajl1V3FHU0ZzLVdSX1BoM2tyUFlrZUxGVzZxemxRSlBiSFFXMGlTc3pvUVRJNUlYMTg3cHg4bmkybG1mV3J5RE5LXzJGQT09 |
The leading Republican presidential contender is an elderly and morbidly obese man who lives on junk food and is one cheeseburger away from a coronary. Naturally, Trump doesn't want people to know how fat he really is. But this isn't a matter of vanity; it's a matter of disclosure. The voters have the right to know how much Donald Trump weighs.
I'm not condemning Trump for trying to hide his weight. I am wondering why not a single reporter in America is trying to find out his real weight. Someday when he dies, we will find out and guess what? It will be a big story and people will demand to know why nobody ever knew Trump's weight. They will be told "everybody treated it as a joke. He claimed to weigh 235 pounds. Isn't that *funny?*
Actually, it's not. | r/media_criticism | post | r/media_criticism | 2023-11-27 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4dzlDcjl4T3JIenFNSWJZQm1UUDdsblFvcWtJNkwyRHlzdm9XdG45TFdZczhFRU52aXJLQzJqTENhWjhvWTR6Y3ZBVlF2enp0bW1MQ1ZJd1ZrdjJHN1E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVN3k0QUMxWk1Nc3NYZmlYNXBLYlp4Wk9DaUU5NERxc3piLU5UX1oxbXBWc1BwSjRQbm1PTk1SbE8zX1lMMHBRb3JnZ3VMdjVjOFd6VjRkTmtyZGVVZElsdjNUTFF0a3JLR3VyWVBuYWl1VW8td3FBZi1DTUZib0NZb0g1WF95QnBYSnliSmFaWWk4WWlLQUFoTUp6RTBiTmNmUG0wRHNPTWJMYkhnZ29GdC1zemt2SktSSEw4VTMzQTRNRWRMNVR0OTh4LVJYVHNsNl9sTE16UTBxQ0NYdz09 |

**Ministry of Public Security - State Security Department (SSD); June 2027**
As high-speed internet access proliferates across Laos, the government has had to adapt accordingly in order to preserve the leadership of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party. The State Security Department has had to increase its capacity to censor content that undermines the social order in Laos. Recently, the SSD has implemented a tool to check TCP packets from a select bank of words. The purpose of this tool is to search the TCP packets for sensitive words and close the link if a match occurs, thereby eliminating access to that link. A SSD regulation regarding 'Internet Safety for Preserving Social Order' has been pushed out to ISPs requiring them to maintain this tool and active sensitive word list in order to continue their license in Laos. This regulation has become known colloquially as the 'Lao Firewall'.
According to research conducted from a Canadian institute- The Citizen Lab, the TCP tool seems to run on the same protocol as the one used to enforce The Great Firewall in China, and was perhaps licensed to Laos and collaborated with at the permission of China. The Lao Firewall uses a variety of methods, employed by the SSD, to deny service to sensitive websites under directives of the Lao Government, including IP range banning, DNS spoofing and redirection, QOS filtering to block suspicious IP (working to combat VPN use), TCP reset attacks as described above, and MITM attacks to establish Lao approved security certs on Lao websites. After extensive research by Citizen Lab, they have determined that the following topics are being picked up by the sensitive list:
* Hmong independence websites
* Hmong insurgency content
* Content critical of party leadership
Additionally, they have determined the following apps and websites are no longer accessible in Laos:
* YouTube
* Facebook
* Wikipedia
* Reddit
* Whatsapp
* Telegram
* Signal
* X
* Wikipedia
* Hmong American Center
* Hmong Daily News
* Hmong Times
* Hmong TV Network
* NYT
* CNN
* The Guardian
* Voice of America
* DuckDuckGo
* Discord
* Washington Post
* Pornography-related websites
* Tumblr
* Pinterest
* LinkedIn
* Google
* Skype
* Snapchat
Interestingly, the following sites and services are still usable in Laos, and it is unknown why the government has yet to take action:
* Bing
* Netflix
* Instagram
* Steam
* Spotify
* Zoom
* GitHub
* Roblox
* DeviantArt
Consequently, usage of Bing in Laos has soared, as has Instagram. Other social media have begun becoming more prominent, such as VK and Weibo; services such as TikTok, WeChat, Bigo Live, and Spotify have also become more popular.

#Overview
Turkey's reach into Central Asia has been growing, and since the onset of the war in Ukraine, Turkey has increasingly been seen as a viable option for Central Asian Governments to seek support in their programs which vary from reformist to Tyrannical. For the [past 20 years, Turkey has been developing and extending its influence](https://thediplomat.com/2022/10/turkeys-growing-influence-in-central-asia/). Since the [collapse of Russian presence and investment in the region](https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalPowers/comments/1859lca/crisis_the_fall_of_russia_and_its_consequences/), there is now a gaping void where the former Soviet Republics' bond with Russia had been. A resurgent Turkey, freshly buoyant with an international aerospace and industrialisation which is regionally significant, is seeking friends. Turkey's influence in Azerbaijan's conflict with Armenia over Nagorno-Karabakh, was a watershed moment, as Turkish drones and Turkish equipment brought the Armenian exclave to almost naught, with the population displacing completely, and the war decisively ending in Azerbaijan's (and Turkey's) favour. This is the kind of influence Turkey hope3s to extend.
Turkey's "Turkic" links with Central Asia are deep history, and the real influence of Turkishness leaves much in need of empirically quantifying. However, none of that is too significant when dabblin in Political rubrics, so [Selcuk Bayraktar](https://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sel%C3%A7uk_Bayraktar), as [Leader of Turkey's ruling AK Party](https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalPowers/comments/17xd3xp/event_recep_tayyip_erdo%C4%9Fan_suffers_consistent/), is on tour, looking to deepend Turkey's influence in the stricken region. The [Cooperation Council of Turkic Speaking States](https://thediplomat.com/2022/10/turkeys-growing-influence-in-central-asia/) consists of Turkey, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Azerbaijan, while Hungary and Turkmenistan are presently observers.
#On Offer
* **CCTSS / Turkic Council**
* **Membership**. Turkey extends an offer of full membership to Turkmenistan; an offer of Observer or Membership Status to Tajikistan, and an offer of Observer status to Afghanistan
* **Deepening Economic and Legal Links**. Turkey offers the option of Turkish and Qatari-backed investment in energy, particularly looking to purchase gas and hydrocarbons, but also to sell Turkish Solar and other renewables.
* **Security**
* **Deployments**. Turkish Overseas Deployments are [the second largest in the world, after USA](https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalPowers/comments/17qfzry/conflict_turkish_overseas_deployments_2026/). Asia, Africa, and Europe, are all reachable by overseas deployments of Turkish forces. We are willing to send advisors, detachments, and substantial deployments of potentially thousands of Turkish military personnel, into the region. <!We can also send some gnarly mercenaries if you like!>
* **Arms Exports**. Turkish arms and armaments are now competitive and mass exportable. We want you to consider progressing from old Soviet arms to new shiny Turkish ones. We can get rid of your shabby old Migs and Su-29s, and swap them for the TF Kaan, or the [TAI Hurjet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TAI_H%C3%BCrjet), or a myriad of drone options that can give you air support, surveillance, air-to-air-combat, SEAD, AEWACS, and precision strike abilities at a fraction of the cost of a traditional air force. We also sell guns, armoured vehicles, ships, planes, you name it. Come join us!
#Summary
This is a conversation starter. Turkey still has friendly enough relations with both Russia and the EU, and we aren't suggesting that you'll trade one for the other. You can have it all! What we are keen to dialogue on most deeply, is the question of security support, as the region is volatile, and it is in all of our interest to ensure that this volatity does not conflagrate. | r/globalpowers | post | r/GlobalPowers | 2023-11-27 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4QkozQUh2aFpzdnh0RC1OY0F0TTNhWXFmOVNDekxuQkJKdno3OUduMGxmdmdQRWpuTGtlaGpTaXZDcUVoLVZfSUdWcVBLQjhWRjNKbWt3am5MYWY5c1E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVWHAxSHhfa0VjdXVKU1p0Rl80SEZaSWdOaThCdkhZbFBtUHpCS0dLN0phTHFuM1QxeEpVTFRHRUZILWhSLVZGZzk3eXNKQVZILVBvdmptOFlqMFNEZndQZEc5cEczOEkybEFIc3psd3NsZnlPQ3g1Z0NqTk9QeWJTV0p5TEJjSjNjM1ZDdTVQdExtamVTNFU2TmFIeGd0SWpCUVMyaFd5Mld2VjdjRWl0NE9rX3NKZV9vMzdDNXpRRzRpc1FuSl9lUGFnUy1EU2Uwa3VXMzBhVFdJdWplUT09 |

**Kazakhstan**
We express our interest in joining the TF-Khaan project, with an order of 48 aircraft to replace a variety of existing, mainly Flanker-based designs that will be end of life by the mid-2030s.
​
**Uzbekistan**
We are interested in local production of Bayraktar TB3-type drones, in addition to an advisory mission to help modernize our military organization to NATO standards, in a similar manner to the Turkish mission in Azerbaijan.
