Specifically, PMCs based in the Russian Federation have been active in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. They are of increasing concern to commanders worldwide.

Peter der Große war zwar persönlich ein Mensch, dem man heute wohl Hyperaktivität diagnostizieren würde, aber er verfolgte konsequent langfristige Ziele, wie er bei der Modernisierung seines Landes und der Gründung von Sankt Petersburg bewies.

In late November 1942, Soviet forces surrounded Paulus' Sixth Army in a pocket outside the Russian city of Stalingrad. In response the Germans planned a relief operation, Operation Winter Storm, intended to break through the Soviet forces and open the pocket, releasing the encircled units. The 6th Panzer Division was the spearhead of the German relief force. The attack started on December 12th, 1942 and was aborted on December 23rd after heavy Soviet counterattacks.

Alone among world leaders, Vladimir Putin has the power to reduce the United States and Europe to ashes in a nuclear firestorm and has threatened to do so. He invades his neighbours, most recently Ukraine, meddles in Western elections and orders assassinations inside and outside Russia. The regime he heads is autocratic and corrupt.

На берегу Москвы-реки до сих пор стоит деревня Марс, названная так большевиками, а Екатерина II повально переименовывала места, чьи имена звучали "срамно" и "непристойно". Географические названия, топонимы - не только наш ориентир в пространстве, но и способ перемещаться во времени.

However, Russia’s vastly larger population, army, and navy seemed to make it inevitable that Japan would lose if the conflict escalated into war. Few could have foreseen that when war came, it would reveal that Russian power was largely an illusion. That would be underscored by one of the war’s most famous events, a bizarre battle that involved a makeshift Russian fleet under the command of an irascible and unstable admiral sailing around the world to meet its fate.
