That would be brilliant timing on the part of Putin. However, I would not see him taking back more than one country at a time. But while the world is distracted, this would be the time for that. Let's home he won't.Light wrote: ↑March 21st, 2020, 8:03 pmI am thinking the same thing but more for Russia. I see Russia launching an invasion of Belarus and Ukraine, and maybe Moldova but they won't do it right away if they do decide to invade those nations. If the coronavirus has lasted until December 2020 with the world shutdown and mass infected and mass deaths in the United States then the Russian army does a German WWII blitzkrieg into Belarus, Ukraine, and Moldova. December 2020 or January 2021. That is if Putin wants to take a gamble with his approval rating and launch a real war that will have deaths of some Russian soldiers. If the war were to go wrong then Putin's approval would be destroyed and if they have real elections in Russia then he could lose.Contrarian Expatriate wrote: ↑March 21st, 2020, 2:42 pmIn keeping with my theory in the opening post, "suicides of despair" stand to increase Covid-19 deaths due largely to unemployment.

One thing I am hoping to see is that child support enforcement goes by the wayside due to the unemployment and the closing of courts. This is the time for women to show and prove just how "independent" they are.
It is still too early for me to know for sure if this is my predicted "Great Reset," but it certainly is for certain individuals poorly-equipped to cope with life altered in the way it has.
What remains to be seen is military conflict. This would be the opportune time for countries to launch military attack against their enemies while they are back on their heels. Countries like Iran, Russia, and North Korea have enough Machiavellian leadership to actually pull that off.
Elections in Russia are rigged so political fallout is never his concern. He only has to keep his oligarchy circle satisfied and they are so long as they are filling their pockets with ill-gotten gains.
