Putin Claims Mongol Invaders Were Better for Russia Than "Western Conquerors."

General Patton said it best:

I'm surprised that China allows Mongolia to even exist. Mongolia has more in common with China than Russia ever did.

Not even Tibet has the same association and now Tibet is under Chinese control.

exactly. All the way to the Bering straights!

Which would NOT be a good thing. A war between Russia and China over Russia's territory could go nuclear very quickly since Russia simply doesn't have the manpower to stop a prolonged invasion.

@beckyromero that's what they want. Yet it would start over Mongolia first. Russia won't start nukes over Mongolia. There's too much resistance already. When China attempts to cross the upper Manchurian border is when nukes will become a possibility. Not over Mongolia....

Amazing, isn't it?

Greece, Persia, Rome, the Mongol Empire.

They all started as small states that in time conquered quite a lot of territory but yet are now reduced to insignificance.

Patton was right. We should have eradicated those vermin when we were on a roll

What we should have done was taken Berlin while the Ruskies were still slogging thru Poland.
