On situations like Japan, there seems to be a trend of income and purchasing power with having children. If people want children, but can't afford them... They won't have them.
You can see a higher percentage of wealthy people having children vs a lower percentage of working poor people having children everywhere. The only way to increase childbirths naturally is to make working affordable to support them.
It makes sense for allied countries to have bases in eachother's countries - the US is famous for this. Especially near a country China keeps declaring is the worst thing ever in their propoganda.
Interesting how it wasn't a public base though.
I don't know why people would expect the Russian military to not be behind the attack on the dam when they have a long history of targetting civilian infrastructure.
The Ukrainian military doesn't have a history of false flag operations, so it wouldn't make sense for them to be behind an attack on a dam that wouldn't benefit them.
Yeah, ukraine does have a non-zero facist problem. The country does deserve valid criticism.
I just wish Russia supporters would stop using it as justification for the invasion. The denazification propoganda as a false flag for "putin wants to restore the old USSR by invading a sovereign nation" is insanely annoying, and means any valid criticism is drowned out by wondering if it's far right Russia Today talking points.
