      We don’t even know what a warm or cold water port even is!

      The ocean is not warm, so are not all ports cold water ports? Does America heat their ports - DO YOU HAVE SPA PORTS?!?

    A warm water port is a port that doesn’t ice over in winter.

    Literally everyone but Russia has one, that’s why they start screeching and invading people because they just can’t fundamentally accept that they’re a joke of a naval power and always will be.

      I’ve been trying to convince China: vladivostok (before 1900: Yongmingcheng) was taken from them. take it back. Russia won’t be able to fight it.

      just take it back. there’s lots of resources up that way too; much more than you could ever get by starting ww3 over taiwan. SK, JP, fuck every pacific nation aside from NK will support Taiwan.
