Given that Russia’s economy is around the same size as Spain’s, its “no limits” partnership with China hardly seems to matter economically (though its willingness to engage in disruptive activities around the world could prove useful to its larger southern neighbour).īut a country at “war” needs a strategy, and the US cannot win a new great-power contest by itself it needs friends. And senior US officials have since warned that the war must not divert attention from the real long-term threat: China. This front in the new cold war opened well before Russia invaded Ukraine. According to this view, preemptive action is warranted, even if it means violating the World Trade Organization rules that the US itself did so much to write and promote. In Washington, there is a bipartisan consensus that China could pose a strategic threat, and that the least the US should do to mitigate the risk is to stop helping the Chinese economy grow. While China has not done anything to declare itself as a strategic threat to America, the writing is on the wall. Not only is its population four times larger than America’s its economy also has been growing three times faster for many years (indeed, it already surpassed the US in purchasing-power-parity terms back in 2015). But it is simply inevitable that China will outstrip the US economically, regardless of what official indicator one uses. Of course, America does not want to be dethroned. Moreover, between Donald Trump’s election, the attempted coup at the US Capitol, numerous mass shootings, a Republican Party bent on voter suppression, and the rise of conspiracy cults like QAnon, there is more than enough evidence to suggest that some aspects of American political and social life have become deeply pathological. But then came disastrously misguided wars in the Middle East, the 2008 financial crash, rising inequality, the opioid epidemic, and other crises that seemed to cast doubt on the superiority of America’s economic model. Such hypocrisy suggests that it is at least partly global hegemony, not values, that is really at stake.įor two decades after the fall of the Iron Curtain, the US was clearly number one. And US leaders’ portrayal of the confrontation as one between democracy and authoritarianism fails the smell test, especially at a time when the same leaders are actively courting a systematic human-rights abuser like Saudi Arabia.

The OFP mod: RCWC can be classified as one of the fundamental works in the history of the Russian OFP community. Undoubtedly, this modification clearly demonstrates the high level of organization of the Operation Flashpoint / ArmA: CWA gaming community, the professionalism of individual enthusiasts and significantly expands the capabilities of the basic version of the game. The project team included in the Real Cold War Crisis mod several full-fledged campaigns, over 50 single missions, as well as a collection of addons of NATO units and vehicles, rebels and civilians corresponding to a similar time period. The Real Cold War Crisis (RCWC) mod is the result of the collective work of the following addon and mod makers: Special Soldier, FOXlauncher, st90 (SovietKoT), alexanbros40, BAZ, Nimus, Hopser, NERV, Stalker.2011.Īs it became known, the first idea to create this mod for Operation Flashpoint/ArmA: Cold War Assault appeared in 2009, but its implementation was started only three years later. The mod is a grandiose work, which allowed to achieve unsurpassed entertainment and realism of the OFP / ArmA: CWA gameplay.
